Automated system reduces time & costs of auditing process

ResiCAT eliminates the paper process in auditing saving approximately 30% of auditing time. It has its own random sample tool so that audit datasets are simply uploaded, and the sample selection is taken care of. The saving is due to the data analysis, quality checks and processes within the tool which eliminates human error in using excel spreadsheets or paper. For example, only valid ICD-10-AM codes can be used. It contains access to any grouper so that grouping is instantaneous. Read more about the process of auditing with ResiCAT.

Extensive reporting capabilities

ResiCAT contains a smorgasbord of reports, from individual data items through to DRG and summary reports. An audit throughput report assists in the management of the audit. An audit trail can assist in auditing the auditor. ResiCAT also eliminates the expensive cost of report writing. The client can retrieve the majority of information about the audit at the conclusion with the click of a button.

It is the only audit tool that contains a prefix report designed to identify HAC issues. It has been designed in consultation with the Department of Health Victoria and KPMG.

Determines root cause of coding errors

ResiCAT is able to determine the root cause of coding errors. Mandatory error logs are required to be completed for each coding discrepancy to detail the type of error (eg missing additional diagnosis code) and the reason for error (eg coding convention not followed). These can be identified graphically to show trends and used for your own reporting purposes.

Cost effective web-based application

ResiCAT is a licensed web-based application which means facilities do not need to purchase expensive auditing software or install software on their computer systems. Being web-based also provides the flexibility to use the application on any device. Rest assured your data is protected with stringent security protocols in place.
