KanTime Healthcare Software has announced its integration with Opera Care to introduce and offer its CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) OASIS claims, pre-submission claims, and proactive OASIS analytics software and services.
Developed by a former CMS/State OASIS coordinator OperaCare is a unique offering that provides real-time quality assurance, data driven census management and a standardized OASIS process. Written from the perspective of the regulator, OperaCare remediates ZPIC surveys, and helps prevent the likelihood of ADR and ZPIC reviews. The data derived include identifying the likelihood of hospital re-admissions, and allows for acuity-based staffing and outcome-based marketing. The software is optimized for OASIS-C2, Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP), and Pre-Claim Reviews.
“We’re very excited to work with KanTime. The ability to submit your OASIS with the click of a button into OperaCare, and just as easily get your report returned to you, makes the lives of home health agencies just that much easier. After all my years in regulatory consulting, I identified a gap between what CMS wanted and what was being presented by the agencies,” said Michael McGowan, President and Founder of OperaCare, LLC. “With the upcoming home health nursing shortage, we have also been able to increase productivity while sending nurses home at night with no more OASIS documentation to do – we give nurses their lives back. Ultimately this is the biggest return on investment. Increasing margins and submitting claims hourly are natural byproducts of the process.”
Integration into the KanTime system allows bi-directional communication between KanTime and the OperaCare platform. Essentially, OASIS data from KanTime is sent to OperaCare to be reviewed. Within a few seconds, a report is sent back with recommended changes to the OASIS. A RAP ready report is also completed within 2-3 hours of the visit. This allows for the submission of OASIS forms that are not raising red flags.
“We are very excited about the functionality found in OperaCare and know that it will help our home health agency customers proactively create the data that’s reported by CMS in order to survive and thrive in today’s increasingly regulated post-acute care market,” said Kristen Duell, VP of Business Development & Marketing at KanTime.
