DENVER, March 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Magenta Care Continuum has announced the launch of a new technology that will support Medicare Advantage (MA) plans in their audit risk mitigation strategy. The new suspect delete technology works exclusively from claims data, combining machine learning, clinically derived heuristics, and over 50,000 predictive rules to identify unsupported Hierarchical Conditions Codes (HCCs) at risk for HHS RADV and Medicare RADV audits.
This is particularly important as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) published a Risk Adjustment Data Validation (RADV) Final Rule earlier this year to recover improper risk adjustment payments. According to Fierce Healthcare, this will have a potential $5 billion impact on Medicare Advantage plans over the next decade. Magenta believes the lack of automation and room for manual error is contributing to this challenge.
Beta tests have demonstrated over 90% accuracy with Magenta's suspect delete technology, covering all Hierarchical Condition Codes (HCCs), especially codes prioritized in OIG audits. The analytics engine is extremely fast and can run millions of member histories in just a few hours. The output includes specific member HCC assignments, error rates by provider, by provider group, and by plan, segmented by HCC on both frequency and RAF basis.
Magenta is offering a one-time analysis for the next 3 months at an introductory price of 10 cents per member to report unsupported HCCs back to MA plans so that they can take the appropriate action. Magenta's suspect delete technology is a vital tool for Medicare Advantage plans looking to mitigate their audit risk and ensure proper risk adjustment payments.
