The Benefits of Using Signature Performance

Through Signature Performance’s Health Information Management Solutions, you will experience coding process enhancements and improve documentation and data quality; producing optimal results. We deliver outcomes that meet or exceed your critical financial, clinical, and quality metrics. You’ll experience:

Increased Coding Accuracy

By utilizing our Propel Coding Audit and Education program our clients experience 97.6% accuracy or higher. This means your patients records will correctly reflect their medical history, contributing to improved patient safety.

Expedited Billing and Cash Flow

Timely and accurate coding improves cash flow and provides you with the financial resources to better serve your patients. By streamlining processes and focusing on work queue management, we reduced one client’s days not final billed (DNFB) dollars by 400%.

Improved Core Quality Measures

Small changes in your Case Mix Index (CMI) can have a large impact on your bottom line. Through our CDI and coding query process, we have helped clients increase their CMI by more than 20% in the first six months.

Continuity of Service Through Retained Credentialed HIM Professionals

With HIM services in high demand, experience and certified coders and auditors have their choice of employers. To attract and retain skilled AHIMA and AAPC certified professionals we have instituted the Signature Performance HIM Center of Excellence (SPHCE) to provide the tools, education and support HIM professionals want and need to be their best. Our professional development and career ladder opportunities help our voluntary turnover rate to just 6.67% versus the national average of 19% or higher turnover in healthcare.
