PNC Treasury Management Launches Artificial Intelligence Enabled Healthcare Solution Claim Predictor To Prevent Lost Revenue

PITTSBURGH, March 21, 2023 – PNC Treasury Management today announced the availability of PNC Claim Predictor, a new artificial intelligence and machine learning-enabled solution that helps healthcare organizations proactively identify inaccurate or insufficiently populated insurance claims prior to submission. 

The process of submitting insurance claims has been a challenge for healthcare organizations for years, and has led to lost revenue, extended timelines and the diversion of critical resources. Insurers on average initially reject nearly $5 million annually in claims per provider1, which results in either lost or at-risk revenue for healthcare organizations. In addition, it costs nearly $100 per claim to rework and resubmit claims2, which is why it’s not surprising that 45% of rejected claims are never resubmitted3

“We saw that our healthcare clients could benefit from an efficient way to address the challenges they continue to face with submitting claims, which is exactly why we developed PNC Claim Predictor to help them tackle the issue,” said Doug McKinley, senior vice president and head of Innovation for PNC Treasury Management. “We are committed to constantly developing new and innovative offerings, through our treasury management platform, to create nimble, secure, seamless and customizable solutions to help our clients more effectively run their businesses and meet their own customers’ needs.”

Leveraging machine learning technology, PNC Claim Predictor uses historical data from submitted claims, allowing it to “learn” organizations’ claim attributes and associated patterns -- enabling the solution to predict which future claims are likely to be rejected and the type of information healthcare organizations need so they can correct the claims before submission. The goal is to ultimately, save healthcare organizations time and expenses, and prevent lost revenue. An added feature of the new solution is that it can be integrated into an organizations’ existing electronic medical record system, such as Epic. So, there’s no need to move between systems or have separate logins, dashboards, etc. PNC Claim Predictor provides a seamless user experience.

For more than 25 years, PNC has been focused on serving the healthcare industry to help providers and payers achieve their business and service goals. This claim solution is a continuation of this work, as the bank seeks to deliver fully integrated solutions and strategic services to maximize working capital, streamline revenue cycle processes, mitigate risk and gain access to capital. PNC supports a wide array of healthcare clients with their financial needs, including for-profit and not-for-profit acute-care systems, physician groups, billing companies, labs, ambulatory care companies, home health care, extended care, healthcare payers and group purchasing organizations.
