Data Mining

Find, recover and prevent claim errors and overpayments related to duplicates, coordination of benefits, billing issues and contract administration.

Detect, recover and prevent claim overpayments

Health care claim payments are complex, leaving ample room for inaccurate payments to slip through. Health plans can implement Optum® Data Mining, both pre- and post-pay, to help improve payment accuracy, reduce overpayments and save on medical and administrative costs without requesting provider documentation.

Our robust Data Mining solution can:

  • Facilitate compliance with provider contracts
  • Identify and resolve outlier billing errors
  • Conduct reviews on adjudication and coding errors
  • Prevent future errors and overpayments

Key benefits

Health plans save an average of $1.96 PMPM (per member, per month) with our comprehensive, integrated solution.

Blend technology and human intelligence

Our 4-tier analytic process and expert analysts review and deny errant claims before payment and identify overpayments already reimbursed.

Shift from recovery to prevention
