During your orientation to the facility, the hospital CFO informs you there is no formal chargemaster review process. Your first task in your new role is to develop a process for the systematic review of the chargemaster. Present your process in a one-page executive summary to the CFO.
Scenario 2: You are the new Director of Revenue Cycle Management at the Midland Community Hospital, a 650-bed acute care facility.  Generally, charts remain on the DNFB report for an average of 12 days waiting to be coded.  Your organizational leadership has determined implementing a computer-assisted coding system will help expedite final coding and improve revenue.
