Question 3

What is the average recoverable revenue for neurology practices missing CMS updates?

Accepted Answer

According to CLV Intelligence's revenue model, neurology practices operating under Novitas Solutions (Jurisdictions JH, JL) that do not monitor CMS and MAC policy changes in real time may expose an estimated $19,699 in recoverable annual revenue per provider location. This estimate applies a 4% industry-standard coding error rate to an average neurology Medicare claim value of $950, adjusted for a 60% conservative recovery capture rate and an urgency multiplier derived from the volume of open high-priority alerts (currently 36). This is a directional estimate provided by CLV Intelligence — not a billing or legal guarantee. Actual recoverable amounts depend on claim volume, payer mix, and current coding accuracy.
