By implementing Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) coding alerts to suggest clinically appropriate codes not previously documented, Community Health Network realized a financial impact of more than $11 million. They made this positive financial impact by:

• Implementing new Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) Coding approaches that allow for scoring and classifying of at-risk members to help more accurately estimate costs for the next year of coverage, thereby impacting next year’s payments.
• Improving risk scores by focusing on providing cognitive activity within the workflow with clinical decision support engine evaluations.
• Recognizing 10 new actionable HCC alerts resulting in a 57 percent average follow rate.
