REVENUE OPTIMIZATION
Turn Compliance Issues
Into Revenue Recovery
Stop leaving money on the table. Our AI identifies missed billing opportunities, catches documentation gaps before submission, and ensures every report meets payer-specific requirements—recovering an average of 23% more revenue.
The Hidden Cost of Documentation Errors
Every missing field is lost revenue. Every denial is doubled work.
Insurance companies typically reimburse only 80% of ambulance charges—and that's when everything goes perfectly. Add documentation errors, missing medical necessity, or incomplete mileage logs, and that percentage drops dramatically. With denial rates averaging 15-20% industry-wide, agencies lose millions in recoverable revenue.
CareSwift's Revenue Optimization engine analyzes every report against current Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payer requirements. We catch the missing modifiers, incomplete narratives, and documentation gaps that cause denials—before claims submission. The result? Higher first-pass acceptance rates, faster payment cycles, and recovered revenue that was previously written off.

Your Billing Team's Force Multiplier
Even the best billing teams can't catch everything. With hundreds of payer policies, constantly changing requirements, and thousands of reports to process, some revenue inevitably slips through. Our AI serves as a safety net, catching what human review might miss.
By automating the tedious validation work, your billing staff can focus on high-value activities like appeals, payer negotiations, and process improvement. The result is not just more revenue, but a more efficient, less stressed billing department.
