Check every claim against the essentials before it goes, so it is paid the first time, because a claim with an error is a claim denied or clawed back.
The second step of building the billing engine, run on every claim before submission.
Any claim that fails a check is fixed before it goes, not sent and hoped for.
Filing deadlines are tracked and met well inside them, because a late claim is often an unpaid claim.
The rule: clean means true. If a claim would only pass by documenting a service in a way that does not match what happened, stop; that is a false claim, and it goes to an attorney and compliance, legal and risk, not around the check.
