I work for a multi-specialty trauma group and we are struggling with our hospital charge capture. We have part of our practice where the phyisicans accept the responsibility to hand over their charge slips for the patients that they see in the hospital. The other part of the practice does not. They feel that a coder should go through the hospital and pull the patient charts and code on the floor daily and capture the charges then. I do not have the staff that can do this. As it is we are already short staffed and have no approval to hire anyone.
I also get a census daily that is computer generated but that relies on the hospital staff to put in the request for the consult into the computer system and there are many times this is not done correctly.
I am looking to see how other people handle their charge capture. You can send me an email at rebecca.almquist@cmchealthsys.org
Thanks!
