Capario releases Portal v3.7 of provider portal application

Capario, a leading provider of revenue cycle management solutions that connect healthcare payers and providers nationwide, announces the release of version 3.7 of its provider portal application, which features new services and system enhancements based on submitter feedback. The release also contains Capario's 5010 submitter testing tool.

"We're always looking for innovative ways to achieve that ideal balance between system intelligence and practical functionality in our portal—keeping in mind what matters most to our users," said Jim Riley, president of Capario. "Version 3.7 focuses primarily on streamlining day-to-day processes with more reporting flexibility, administrative control and portal customization. We also know that the 5010 migration is top of mind for all of our users, so we've developed a tool that provides submitters with a simple file validation tool to help verify their readiness to send 5010 files."

Portal v3.7 includes two new services that enhance administrative efficiencies and prepare users for the changes associated with the new 5010 standard. The portal change report captures online corrections made to transactions in the Capario portal, and can be used to update the user's practice management system automatically. The 5010 self-testing tool enables submitters to submit their 5010 claim file using the portal to validate their claims are structurally 5010 compliant. For claims identified as being not compliant, the tool provides insight into what changes need to be made to their 5010 claims in the future, so submitters can take a more proactive approach prior to submitting production 5010 claims.

Additionally, enhancements to existing portal features will help users to further streamline the claims submission, revenue cycle and denial management process through:

• Processed remittance report: Previously limited to EFT and check processing, the report now includes the addition of a nonpayment category and has been simplified for enhanced efficiency.
• Claim entry configuration: Administrators can now manage which forms users are able to access for online corrections, including the CMS1500 Form, Capario ANSI 837 detail form, or the raw ANSI 837 form.
• Copying claims: Users can update and resubmit claims to payers more simply with online updating of billing provider and payer information.
• My Workspace: Search results are improved with the additions of claim origin, last action, Capario status and assigned to fields.
• Claims tracking: Data entry is now retained when users move from simple to advanced search screens for improved workflow management. The claim detail screen has also been updated for improved visibility and simplified claim correction workflow.
• Remittance: The online patient EOB has been updated and now includes all healthcare remark codes and descriptions.
