Fastrack Unveils Electronic

CMS Audit Response System

Fastrack Healthcare Systems, Inc. is releasing a new automated system that is an effective, secure and reliable method of responding to a CMS audit request.  According to Spencer Kay, President/CEO of Fastrack, “We are pleased to offer this new technology that will help providers in responding to audits by streamlining their processes for the capture, storage and submission of medical documentation to CMS.  The new system for RAC, MAC and CERT audits will virtually eliminate the labor intensive paper processes in responding to the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).”

Providers simply enter the audit number received from CMS and select the documents that they wish to electronically send to CMS in support of their response.  Documents can easily be gathered from the Document Storage Module, the file server or any user’s workstation and can include faxed, emailed or scanned documents.  Fastrack maintains a list of all the documents/attachments transmitted, the staff member managing the responses as well as the status received back from CMS which includes acknowledgement of receipt of the electronic file by Medicare.  All transmissions are secure and HIPAA Compliant and an unlimited number of pages can be submitted per audit.  The system requires minimal training to implement and use.

There are a number of benefits to the electronic transmission of supporting documentation over the traditional photocopying and mailing method:

• Increased productivity including less time to respond to an audit reducing employee costs.

• Less time spent tracking status

• Eliminates the cost of postage and fax.

• Eliminates lost attachments that delays the process

• Record of every employee who viewed the attachments

• Faster turnaround in processing by CMS

The Fastrack CMS Audit Response System will be one of several new product introductions that will be unveiled at the upcoming Medtrade Fall Show in Atlanta, GA, October 16th – 18th, 2012.
