Description
Documentation and coding compliance isn’t just a requirement—it’s the backbone of financial stability. This panel will discuss real-world experiences, highlighting the financial consequences of coding-naive ambient AI versus the financial security provided by coding-aware ambient AI. By examining real outcomes at major health systems, attendees will learn how documentation compliance directly affects reimbursement, audit risks, and revenue capture.
Leaders from Cleveland Clinic, St. Luke’s Health System, Ardent Health Services, and Allegheny Health Network will share their experiences deploying AI-driven documentation tools, at scale, in complex care settings.
Key themes include reducing clinician burnout, enhancing compliance and optimizing financial performance. Attendees will gain actionable strategies to build a business case for AI, evaluate ROI in this context, and drive financial success through AI applications beyond documentation, like AI-supported real-time compliance and CDI tooling.
Learning Objectives:
Understand how ambient AI enhances revenue cycle integrity, compliance and financial outcomes across diverse care settings
Learn how ambient AI supports coding precision, compliance, and risk-based reimbursement strategies
Learn how to leverage auditing frameworks when evaluating ambient AI solutions
