Claims Resolution Operations Center (CROC)

A dedicated, specialized claims triage and resolution service staffed by healthcare billing experts who work ON BEHALF of provider organizations to resolve denials, prior authorization delays, and payment discrepancies in real time. CROC operates as an extension of the provider's billing department, with direct access to payer systems, claim status databases, and provider EHR data (via secure integration), handling the back-and-forth communication and rework that currently consumes internal staff capacity.

SERVICE

42 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Providers immediately recover 20-40 FTE hours per week of internal billing staff time (redirected to patient-facing work or revenue optimization), reduce claim denial rates by 15-25% through expert triage, and accelerate payment cycles by 10-15 days on average by resolving issues before they become aged denials. CROC operates on a fixed-cost model, eliminating the variable cost of hiring and training new billing staff.

Target Audience

Mid-market and regional health systems (50-500 bed hospitals, large multi-specialty clinics, ambulatory surgery centers) with annual claim volumes of 50K-500K that have internal billing teams but lack capacity to resolve denials proactively.

Key Features

  • Dedicated claims analyst assigned to each client organization, trained on their top 5-10 payers and claim types
  • Daily claim exception report (denials, prior auth delays, payment discrepancies) delivered to provider with resolution action plan
  • Direct phone/fax/portal access to payer systems; CROC handles all payer communication on provider's behalf
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Tech Stack

HIPAA-compliant cloud infrastructure (AWS PrivateLink or Azure Healthcare Cloud) HL7/SFTP integration framework (Mirth Connect or custom Python ETL) Payer portal API documentation and reverse-engineering (manual at first) Web dashboard (React/Vue frontend, Node/Python backend)

Original Problem

Healthcare providers and payers waste critical staff time on manual billing and claims processing friction

Healthcare organizations are hemorrhaging operational capacity and revenue due to broken payer-provider workflows that require excessive manual intervention, rework, and back-and-forth communication. Billing staff spend hours resolving claim denials, prior authorization delays, and payment discrepancies instead of focusing on patient care and revenue cycle optimization. Current fragmented systems lack real-time visibility into payment status and claim issues, forcing providers to chase payments reactively rather than preventing problems proactively.
