SUMMARY:Webinar: Rethinking Denial Management: How Prevention Outperforms R
 ecovery
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, September 30th | 12:00 PM EST\n\nCoding is now the 
 denial category that decides the margin. Coding related denials rose 26 pe
 rcent across hospital outpatient and professional settings in 2025\, on to
 p of a 126 percent outpatient jump the year before\, and they have passed 
 eligibility\, registration\, and pre-cert as the top category. Payer audit
  at-risk dollars climbed 30 percent. Medicare Advantage RFI and medical ne
 cessity denials rose fivefold. Payers are taking longer to respond and dow
 n-coding high weight DRGs and high intensity ED codes automatically\, whic
 h converts revenue leakage into False Claims Act exposure. Retrospective r
 eview cannot close a gap that opens before the claim leaves the building. 
 What works is interrogating 100 percent of charges at code complete\, when
  the fix still costs nothing.\n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\n 	Why coding relat
 ed denials overtook front-end categories\, and which settings are absorbin
 g the damage\n 	How automated payer down-coding creates compliance risk\, 
 not just lost reimbursement\n 	What governance around autonomous coding ac
 tually has to look like to hold up\n 	How pre-bill interrogation changes D
 RG accuracy\, first pass pay rates\, and days in AR\n 	What is new in eVal
 uator\, and how confidence scoring and financial impact prioritize the wor
 k\n\nWho Should Attend:\n\nRevenue cycle and revenue integrity leaders\, H
 IM and coding directors\, billing compliance leaders\, and healthcare fina
 nce executives.\n\nWhat You Will Take Away:\n\nA pre-bill operating model 
 to bring back to the program\, grounded in MDaudit benchmark data from 4\,
 500 facilities\, along with a practical view of what charge-level accuracy
  looks like when it happens before submission rather than after.\n\nClick
