AI-Powered Assistant That Transforms Hospital Appeal Writing

Brought to you by The Wellington Group, LLC

The Challenge Facing Hospital Revenue Cycle Teams

Hospitals today face relentless financial pressure, driven by aggressive payer denials, staff shortages, and increasing documentation and regulatory demands. Each denied claim represents thousands in at-risk revenue. Appeal writers are stretched thin—tasked with interpreting dense denial letters, navigating complex clinical documentation, and producing detailed, persuasive appeals under tight timelines.

• Primary Concerns in the Market:
• • Increasing volume of clinical and coding denials from payers
• • Low staff-to-denial ratios and high burnout
• • Inconsistent overturn rates across appeal types
• • Fragmented tools for documentation, research, and writing
• • Delays from manual data gathering and formatting

• High-Need Areas:
• • DRG validation and downgrades
• • Medical necessity denials with nuanced clinical criteria
• • Denials requiring regulatory citations (LCD, ICD-10, IOM)
• • Hospitals managing appeals across multiple audit types and payers
