6 38. If a provider or staff member is not present during the week of onsite training, what provisions will you expect for follow-up? Those in attendance will serve as Super User roles for their clinic. The expectation will be that any person attending the training is able to train the persons that were unable to attend on-site training. However, we would like provisions for on-going training for an ample time frame to address questions to the Consultant once the on-site training completed. 39. What type of access will UTHSC provide for the record review? Please provide a description of the current clinical documentation state, Are the records in scope on the same system? Are they paper-based? Can they be scanned? The majority of the clinics are using an EMR system. But we have 2 which are still paper-based. We will be able to provide access for record review to the Consultant. 40. What EMR systems are in place? If the records are online or scanned, is a remote review and presentation of results acceptable? Will UTHSC provide staff with remote access capabilities? Please refer to Question 12 concerning EMR systems. Yes to the other 2 questions. 41. How did UTHSC determine scope of 5 records per provider? We felt that this was a sufficient number for record review based on the number of Providers that will be reviewed. 42. Please describe the mix of the 57 providers by medical specialty See question 2 above 43. Are all providers on the same E.H.R. System and will that be the system of record for charts or will they be provided by PDF file or other? No we have a decentralized billing system. In most cases, the charts can be provided either remotely or PDF. 44. Shall we assume a mix of inpatient/acute care, professional fee and ambulatory charts to review? If so what might the approximate mix be? No 45. Is UTHSC open to a creative proposal as an option to the current RFP scope that includes analytics? Explanation: We would like to include our approach as a novel time saving method to identify those providers who have the greatest need for training. The analytics will also be useful in determining financial impact of the current documentation and how that documentation can be improved, to what end with respect to revenue cycle management. 6
7 This would enable, for example a rapid assessment of those 57 providers (and if needed a much wider group) that require the most time, training and effort and those providers who already have strong specificity in their documentation to support ICD-10. Analytics would not be used instead of chart reviews but would be used in conjunction with the chart reviews Access to claims data would be required which we can facilitate in terms of ETL and normalization for analysis. This is negotiable. 46. Normally we provide both remote analysis of charts and on-site training is this the view of the ideal mix of services in the RFP? We would prefer on-site training only. 47. We would like to understand your methodology of selecting 5 charts per provider. Can you please share insights? Vendor uses its proprietary technology to analyze claims, code usage complexity and identify provider at risk of documentation. This would help prioritize audits for specific providers. Would the University of Tennessee Health Science Center want to consider this approach? If yes, are you willing to provide us claims data for analysis? We have observed though our experience that this would reduce effort and provide training in areas of high risk impact. We felt that this was a sufficient number for record review based on the number of Providers that will be reviewed. However, if chosen your approach may be considered. 48. Clinical documentation improvement uses charts for auditing, the length of charts would be an important aspect for us to estimate time and cost. Can you please provide an average length of charts (pages) or average length of stay, for the charts that incumbents need to audit? These are Physician Practices and there is no length of stay except in cases whereas patient is sent from clinic to hospital and those records would be the property of the hospital and not the clinic. 49. We would like to understand the duration of the project, which can help us plan and allocate our coders. Please provide proposed duration for the engagement. No longer than one week. 50. Please clarify the number of copies of the Technical Proposal and Cost Proposal that should be submitted. Pages 3 of RFP document requests one original and 5 copies of the complete Technical Proposal, whereas Page 8 of RFP document requests one original and 3 copies of the complete Technical Proposal. We require an original Technical Proposal and 5 copies of the Technical Proposal. We require an original and 1 copy of the Pricing Proposal. 7
8 51. Upon review of the RFP, we have a question related to section 3.A. on page 2 of 13. This section referrers to software installation and maintenance. However, the scope throughout the rest of the RFP only referrers to consulting services related to assessments of current clinical documentation, coding, and on-site training. Can you clarify this statement, as I would assume that your current coding/billing software vendor would be handling the updates for ICD-10 and this RFP is more related to training and compliance. That is correct. 52. Consulting services can be performed outside premises/inside the premises. Consulting services to be provided on site at UTHSC. 8
