MEDICAL CLAIMS AUDITING SOFTWARE
Custom Medical Claims Auditing Software
DragonPoint builds custom medical claims auditing software that consolidates claims from your source systems, automates sampling and coding checks, and turns months-long outsourced reviews into fast, in-house audits. See how we helped a national women’s healthcare organization save $450K in its first year.
- Automated, rules-based sampling across hundreds of thousands of claims a month
- Guided auditing with automated coding accuracy checks and scoring
- Provider scorecards and role-based reporting from a single dataset
What Custom Medical Claims Auditing Software Does
Off-the-shelf audit tools force your team to work the way the software wants. Custom medical claims auditing software is built around your auditors’ actual workflow, your sampling rules, and your source systems — so you can audit the current month’s claims instead of last quarter’s.
EHR & Source-System Consolidation
Pulls and centralizes claims from multiple source systems and electronic health records such as Athena and NextGen, consolidating hundreds of thousands of records every month into one dataset.
Automated, Rules-Based Sampling
Applies your sampling rules to auto-generate randomized audit batches in a single action — targeting the insurances and procedure codes that carry the most compliance risk.
Guided, Structured Auditing
Walks auditors through a consistent, question-based review of each claim’s coding, so results don’t vary from one reviewer to the next.
Automated Coding Checks & Scoring
Calculates the correct procedure code from your administrative rules and scores it against the submitted code automatically, flagging discrepancies for review.
Provider Scorecards & Feedback
Generates per-provider scorecards and feedback reports, and identifies the clinics and doctors who need coding training to improve accuracy.
Role-Based Reporting & Dashboards
Delivers tailored views for auditors, regional administrators, and executives from one dataset — the same approach behind our custom reporting software.
Why Build Custom Instead of Buying Off-the-Shelf?
Generic auditing tools rarely understand your insurances, your procedure-code rules, or the way your claims data is split across systems. That gap forces manual workarounds, inconsistent scoring, and audit results that arrive too late to act on.
Because we design the platform around your process, custom software absorbs those rules directly — and integrates with the systems you already run.

In Practice: A Healthcare Claims Audit Case Study
How We Solved It
Data Consolidation
Centralizes roughly 800,000 records each month from two independent source systems covering 600+ clinics.
Automated Sampling
Applies layered business rules to auto-generate randomized audit batches in a single action.
Guided Auditing
Walks auditors through a structured, question-based review of each claim’s coding.
Tailored Reporting
Delivers provider feedback reports, regional summaries, and executive metrics from one dataset.
The Challenge
A national healthcare organization needed a faster, more accurate way to audit medical claims across hundreds of providers. Auditing was outsourced and slow, limiting the organization’s ability to respond to compliance issues while they were still current—all while roughly 800,000 claims flowed in each month from two separate source systems across 600+ clinics.
Key challenges:
- Relied on outsourced auditing at significant annual cost
- Took months to deliver results
- Limited visibility into current performance
- Required manual effort to generate audit samples
- Three stakeholder groups needed different views of the same data
These delays meant compliance and filing issues were often identified months after the fact—long after the opportunity to correct them quickly had passed.
Our Approach
Instead of expanding the outsourced auditing contract or adding headcount, the organization needed a fundamentally different model: bring auditing in-house and let software handle the volume and the rules.
DragonPoint built a centralized audit platform designed around the auditors’ actual workflow rather than forcing the team to adapt to a generic tool. After claims are imported each month, auditing managers can view claim counts by doctor for any date range—along with each doctor’s last audit date—and generate multiple batches of randomly sampled claims in a single action.
- Consolidated claims data from two independent source systems
- Encoded layered sampling rules targeting the most strictly regulated insurances and procedure codes
- Added an advanced batch-creation screen for specialized sampling
- Guided auditors through a structured, question-based review workflow
- Automated coding calculation and compared it against each provider’s submitted codes
- Generated automatic scorecards and feedback reports per provider
The bottleneck was never the auditors—it was the months-long lag between claim submission and review. Automating sampling and coding let the team audit the most recent month’s data instead of last quarter’s.
How the Audit Works
Instead of slow, outsourced reviews, every claim flows through the same in-house platform—sampled, reviewed, scored, and reported, all in one place.
Import & Batch
Claims are imported from your source systems and automatically organized into monthly audit batches.
Guided Review
Auditors work through every claim in a consistent, guided workflow.
Consistent Scoring
Built-in guidance keeps scoring consistent from one auditor to the next.
Coding Checks
The platform checks coding automatically and flags discrepancies for review.
Tailored Reporting
Results roll up into role-based reporting for auditors, administrators, and executives.
Results
The new platform delivered measurable gains in cost, speed, accuracy, and visibility:
$450K Saved in Year One
Eliminated third-party auditors, removing more than $450,000 in cost in the first year alone.
Months to Near Real-Time
Reduced the audit cycle from several months to the most recent month’s data.
Consistent Accuracy
Embedded business rules calculate correct coding and grade every claim the same way.
Visibility at Every Level
Real-time insight for providers, regional administrators, and executive leadership.
By owning the process internally, the organization eliminated more than $450,000 in third-party costs in the first year—while catching and correcting compliance issues while the data was still current.
Medical Claims Auditing Software: FAQ
What is medical claims auditing software?
Medical claims auditing software consolidates claims data, samples it against compliance rules, and helps auditors verify that each claim was coded correctly. Custom software goes further by encoding your specific insurances, procedure-code rules, and workflow, then automating sampling, coding checks, scoring, and provider feedback.
Can it integrate with our EHR, such as Athena or NextGen?
Yes. Because the platform is custom-built, it can import claims and chart data from the systems you already use — including EHRs like Athena and NextGen — and consolidate records from multiple source systems into one auditable dataset. See our software integration capabilities.
Why build custom instead of buying off-the-shelf auditing software?
Off-the-shelf tools rarely match your insurances, coding rules, or how your data is split across systems, which forces manual workarounds and inconsistent results. Custom software absorbs those rules directly and fits your auditors’ workflow, so audits are faster, more consistent, and current.
How much can in-house, automated claims auditing save?
It depends on volume and how much auditing is currently outsourced. In one engagement, a national women’s healthcare organization eliminated more than $450,000 in third-party auditing costs in the first year while cutting the audit cycle from months to the current month’s data.
