Healthcare has a data problem, and it’s costing the industry billions
Patient data can help create an affordable and quality care experience.
Every day, millions of patient charts are updated with new data: a new disease, medication, or treatment plan.
This data is an incredibly valuable resource for healthcare organizations. When providers and payers can ex-
tract actionable insights from their data, they can improve the patient experience. Through the power of these
data insights, healthcare organizaations can deliver more effective, affordable, and personalized care.
Organizations struggle to unlock actionable insights from their data.
Providers and payers have a difficult time extracting insights from unstructured text, which makes up 80%
of all healthcare data. This data comes in many different formats and is stored across a variety of systems,
causing access and integration issues. Because of these challenges, patient data is often underutilized in the
provision of care.
Intelligent analysis of data can help create affordable, quality care.
Apixio saw the need for a technology capable of using machine learning (ML) to extract actionable insights
from documents—so we built an industry-leading platform that can do just that. Our AI platform uses the pow-
er of ML to access, analyze, and generate insights from patient data. We empower organizations to learn from
their valuable healthcare data, and use it to improve operations and patient care.

The Apixio difference: Using data to solve the challenges of healthcare
We built a platform to access, analyze, & generate insights from unstructured healthcare data.
Apixio uses machine learning to analyze patient data,
ultimately enabling better decision making for quality
healthcare. Our platform uses a secure process to ex-
tract and generate insights from documents, images,
billing claims, and other data sources from our cus-
tomers. This data is transmitted to the Apixio platform,
then tracked through each stage of data acquisition,
processing, analysis, and insight generation.
Our AI platform continuously learns & improves as it receives feedback.
Apixio’s platform is constantly learning. Our data
scientists and engineers built a proprietary infrastruc-
ture to develop, refine, and enhance machine learning
algorithms using large datasets and expert feedback.
Each time an Apixio platform user makes a decision, it
improves the accuracy of its results.
Apixio’s InfoStream can extract, load, and transform text, PDF, and TIFF documents such as electronic health records (e.g., Epic, Cerner, Allscripts), medical and prescription claims, lab results, and other patient and provider files.
InfoStream enables better access to relevant data.

Maximize your coding accuracy and reduce audit risk
In today’s regulatory environment, risk adjustment teams are under pressure to ensure their retrospective coding decisions are accurate and well-supported by clinical documentation. But auditing every chart is time-consuming, complicated, and costly. AI can lighten the review load while minimizing your organization’s risk during RADV audits.
Protect your organization by working smarter with AI
Apixio’s HCC Auditor solution reduces the compliance burden on your coding team by analyzing coding decisions and
flagging HCCs that may be missing appropriate documentation. Instead of reading through thousands of pages of charts,
your team can focus on reviewing codes that pose the biggest potential audit risk, helping reduce your organization’s
financial and compliance risk.
“By using Apixio, we’re improving our auditing bandwidth and enhancing the ability of our coders to focus on other chart audits and projects we couldn’t do before.”

Accurate risk adjustment is critical for ACOs to succeed in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP). To maximize shared savings, your population’s risk must be fully represented on claims. But manually performing retrospective chart reviews, developing patient suspect lists to close gaps, and identifying provider improvement areas is time-consuming, expensive, and often ineffective.
Timely, reliable analytics to improve patient risk capture
Apixio’s Risk Adjustment for Medicare ACOs solution uses artificial intelligence (AI) to identify risk-adjusting
patient conditions that haven’t been properly documented at the point of care or coded on claims, increasing your
ACO’s risk capture for Medicare patients. Our analytics solution supports targeted clerical error reopenings with
your MAC, patient visit chase list development, and physician education programs to improve coding performance.

Improve the accuracy of your quality abstraction process with AI
HEDIS and Stars are being adopted by plans and providers nationwide to benchmark care quality. . For many measures, evidence of compliance resides in medical charts, not in administrative or billing data. Consequently, provider groups must hunt for supporting evidence in electronic medical records or provide proof that a procedure or service was completed. This process is time consuming, costly, and prone to human error, which can negatively impact quality program performance
The fastest way to find clinical facts for quality reporting
Apixio’s Quality Identifier solution uses AI algorithms to identify clinical data needed for quality program reporting.
Instead of reading through hundreds of pages to find relevant information, abstractors are pointed to specific pages with
predicted facts, expediting the review process and increasing quality measurement accuracy. With a more accurate view
of performance, providers can understand where they have true care gaps, not just reporting gaps, and make strategic
improvements accordingly.

APIXIO’S SOLUTIONS
Prospective Analytics
Running a paper-based prospective risk program? Apixio’s Prospective Analytics solution
provides the same targeted AI-generated condition suspects and supporting evidence as Pro-
spective Insights, but delivered a simple report you can integrate into your existing direct mail
or fax-based programs to improve condition capture at the point of care.
Documentation Gap Report
Providers serving MA and ACA patients don’t always document patient encounters with HCC
coding in mind. Apixio’s Documentation Gap Report identifies encounter notes with attributed
HCCs lacking critical documentation elements required for submission. Gaps are attributed
to specific providers and include missing elements and dates of service to support physician
outreach and training programs.
Zero Evidence Report
Condition codes are often submitted from a physician office without the necessary support-
ing evidence, which puts health plans and providers at compliance risk. Apixio’s Zero Evidence
Report identifies codes submitted to CMS on claims without evidence in the source encoun-
ter note to inform documentation improvements or deletion.physician outreach and training
programs.

experts work with your team to load charts, claims,
patient and provider files, labs, and other data sourc-
es into our platform for processing. We support data
extracts from all major EHRs, including Epic, Cerner,
and Allscripts; PDF or TIFF files from your chart chase
vendor or internal warehouse; and electronic files
without special formatting required. Once the data is
validated and loaded, we deliver coding or abstraction
opportunities in weeks, not months.
Tested technology, proven value
Traditional coding methods are slow, inaccurate, and
put organizations at risk for submitting codes with-
out sufficient evidence. Apixio conducted the largest
known study to compare manual coding and AI-pow-
ered coding processes. The results demonstrated the
unparalleled advantage of AI. With AI, coders experi-
enced a 4–7X increase in productivity, and found 20%
more supported HCCs than coders manually
reviewing charts.
“The coding team was wonderful to work with, and incorporated our specific coding guidelines when working on our project. When they noticed a trend in what we were rejecting, they shared a Coding Clinic we were unaware of for clarification on how to code the scenarios.”
