DoctusTech Helps: Deploy HCC coding education across your organization

HCC coding accurately estimates future healthcare costs while improving patient care. But like any other tool, it’s only effective if the people who use it master it.

 

Without comprehensive education, even the most advanced coding tools can fall short. That’s where DoctusTech comes in, providing the support and resources to help your organization implement HCC coding education effectively.

 

In this article, we will share how you can use our learning app to deploy HCC coding education across your organization. 

  

Empowering Your Team with HCC Coding Education

 

At DoctusTech, we are always eager to assist healthcare organizations in boosting HCC training programs. Our unique approach, which focuses on solving the three shortcomings of risk adjustment—the data gap, the workflow gap, and the knowledge gap—is critical and sets us apart from other solutions. 

 

Most available solutions address only the data or workflow gaps. However, if your clinicians don’t have the right knowledge, you won’t obtain the outcomes you desire, no matter what you do to resolve the data and workflow issues. We strongly believe that if you resolve HCC coding knowledge challenges, you will also fix your data and workflow issues along the way.   

 

The DoctusTech Mobile App is designed based on our successful HCC education and retention strategy, which relies on clinical vignettes customized to the clinicians’ strengths and weaknesses, sent to their mobile phones weekly. With a 90% engagement rate, the DoctusTech App’s results far surpass any other learning tool, technology, or strategy.   

 

According to the learning data, we consistently increase RAF accuracy after they start using the app for HCC coding education.

Clinicians can use our app to gamify their learning experience, engage with their peers, compete for real prizes, and receive administrative support. Our app also comes with the most sophisticated HCC code search tool available. In addition, clinicians earn 25 CME hours every year as they learn HCC coding in a non-boring app!   

 

Also, our app offers weekly, personalized training that provides valuable insights about the clinicians’ progress.

 

This data-driven approach helps identify knowledge gaps, enabling more focused coaching for continuous improvement and ensuring your team is always growing and learning.

Clinical Vignettes – The secret sauce!  

 

Most doctors who have just graduated from medical school or residency programs know little to nothing about coding for risk adjustment and value-based care. In the past, these clinicians were forced to sit in seminars and learn the correct codes to diagnose and document them properly. 

 

Every other important medical fact is learned in clinical vignettes, so clinicians have difficulty retaining and applying information learned in boring seminars or email blasts. Simply put, incorporating new HCC codes into daily practice is hard – which is why the DoctusTech HCC coding education app is so vital.    

 

Doctors prefer to learn using the Socratic method, clinical vignettes, and question-and-answer sessions because it is the most effective way to capture long-term knowledge gain. This is how doctors are educated, and this is the best way. 

 

DoctusTech enables them to learn HCC coding in the same manner—from other doctors, using clinical vignettes on their own time, requiring only an average of five minutes per week.
