Success tracking to metricize denial recovery percentages.

Workflow

Typical lifecycle inside Vortex

  1. Step 1

    A complex surgical extraction claim is denied requesting 'additional information'.

  2. Step 2

    Vortex red-flags the claim and pushes it into the Denial Management queue.

  3. Step 3

    Agent reads the plain-English requirement, attaches the required panoramic radiograph, and hits resubmit.

  4. Step 4

    The claim re-enters the active processing pipeline within hours, not weeks.
