ALPHA II CODING SYSTEM

It’s accurate. It’s precise. And it’s fast ... right down to the 4th and 5th digits.

Meet the Alpha II Coding System, a powerful resource that enables you to precisely code reimbursement claims quickly and accurately ... just as carriers expect.

Then rest assured your claim will deliver the maximum reimbursement possible.

More than a look-up program, the optional Alpha II helps you generate precise ICD-9, CPT and HCPCS codes that accurately portray the patient encounter and comply with all current coding guidelines.

 

Coding results maximized!

  • Compliance with Correct Coding Initiative (CCI)

  • Optimized reimbursement

  • Fewer partial payments or rejected claims

  • Faster claim/payment turnaround time

  • Find every code in just seconds

  • Less confusion and frustration

  • Less chance for error

  • Increased coding in half the time

  • Reduced risk of audit

 

Can’t-miss coding

  • Pre-edit your claims, ensure compliance and validate every aspect of your reimbursement coding before it ever leaves your office.

  • Take your coding through edits and checks mandated by Medicare and private carriers, helping ensure that the claim will not be “unprocessable,” downcoded or rejected due to incorrect or incomplete coding.

  • Enter code numbers…complete or partial descriptions…even abbreviations…and Alpha II’s search engine will locate the precise code you need.

  • "Can’t-miss" 4th and 5th digits ensure you have valid codes that are as specific as possible.

  • "Bundling edits" make sure you meet all CCI requirements.

  • Modifier edits tell you when selected codes require modifiers (such as –51), and those that are applicable, but not required, for the CPT codes you select.

  • Cross-check your ICD-9 and CPT codes with the Alpha II Bridge to ensure medical necessity and justification.

 

No more overcoding or undercoding!

Alpha II automatically generates an Evaluation and Management (E/M) level-of-service code based on your patient documentation. The E/M Generator contains all HCFA guidelines to identify the correct level of service for the patient encounter.

 

Regular coding updates

No need to worry about not being up to date. We issue quarterly updates, so you’re always ahead of the changes.
