AI agent for medical billers

Payer Policy Change Agent

Rule changes are caught before denials and the impact on recent claims is known.

Payer Policy Change Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Payers publish coding and billing changes in bulletins that few people read, and the first sign is a wave of denials. Every week the agent monitors the payer bulletins and policy pages, finds changes affecting codes the practice uses, and drafts an update to the claim edit rules. When a rule changes, it reruns the last 90 days of claims through the new edit and lists the claims that would now fail, with the dollar amount. It proposes fixes, such as a modifier or documentation requirement. The billing lead approves every change to the edit rules. After the rule goes live, it watches denials for that code and checks that they fall. Edge case: a change with a future effective date is scheduled, not applied today.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It matches bulletin changes to codes in use and measures impact by rerunning past claims.

  • A change affecting a code used 10 or more times a month is reviewed
  • Future dates are scheduled
  • A rule that fails more than 5% of valid claims is rechecked
  • Always keep the source link

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Payers to monitor
  • Look-back days (default 90)
  • Code list
  • Run day
  • Impact threshold

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Billing lead approves every rule change
  • Billing lead approves any claim resubmission

Hard limits

  • Never change a rule without approval
  • Never resubmit claims on its own
  • Never apply a rule before its effective date

It stops when

  • Done: rule changes applied and denials monitored
  • Stop: the bulletin is unclear and needs a payer call

An example run

What happensA payer bulletin adds a modifier requirement for code 97110. The agent finds 214 claims in 90 days that use it. The test fails 188, but a spot check shows 20 have the modifier in another field. It adjusts the rule and the rerun fails 168. The lead approves. After 4 weeks denials for that code drop from 22% to 3%.
