Claims Rejections and Denials
High rates of claims rejections and denials result in revenue loss, increased administrative costs, and delayed reimbursement, leading to delayed turnaround times and poor customer satisfaction.
High Operational Cost
Inaccurate and incomplete claims need manual interventions and rework by payers.
Data Integration and Interoperability
Limited interoperability between different systems, data silos, and manual data entry lead to data integration challenges and inefficiencies in claims processing. Synova implements integrated healthcare IT systems, utilizing electronic health record (EHR) integration for seamless data exchange.

Data Accuracy
Synova checks data accuracy using an AI-powered claims adjudication engine. This maintains the integrity of data collected to reduce the chances of claim denials.
Claims Submission
The process begins with healthcare providers submitting claims to insurance companies, government payers (such as Medicare or Medicaid), or other third-party payers. Claims can be submitted electronically using standardized formats or through paper submissions.
AI-powered Claims Processing
Upon receiving a claim, our automated claims processing system reviews the claim for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with coding guidelines, medical necessity requirements, and payer policies. This step involves initial claims scrubbing, which checks for errors, missing information, duplicate claims, and potential fraud.
AI-assisted Claims Adjudication
After claims processing, we evaluate the claim against the patient's insurance coverage, benefits, and contract terms with the payer. The claim is reviewed for eligibility, coverage determination, medical necessity, and reimbursement calculation based on fee schedules or negotiated rates.
Payment or Denial
Based on the adjudication outcome, we either approve the claim for payment or deny the claim. If approved, we issue payment to the healthcare provider.
Claims adjudication is the process by which insurance companies review and determine the validity, eligibility, and payment amount for a submitted healthcare claim.
Common reasons include:
- Incomplete or incorrect information: Errors in patient details, coding, or claim forms.
- Lack of coverage: Services not covered by the patient’s insurance plan.
- Medical necessity: Services deemed not medically necessary.
- Authorization issues: Missing or incorrect pre-authorizations.
- Timely filing: Claims submitted after the insurer’s deadline.
A clean claim is complete, accurate, and has no errors, allowing for prompt processing and payment. A dirty claim has errors or missing information, which can delay processing and require further investigation or correction.
Providers can reduce denials by:
- Ensuring accurate data entry: Double-checking patient and insurance information.
- Proper coding: Using correct and up-to-date medical codes.
- Obtaining necessary authorizations: Securing pre-approvals when required.
- Timely submission: Submitting claims within the insurer’s timeframe.
- Regular training: Keeping billing staff updated on coding guidelines and payer requirements.
An Explanation of Benefits (EOB) is a statement from the insurance company explaining what medical treatments and services were covered, the amount paid, and what the patient owes.
