Tensaw can be adopted incrementally. Most organizations start with denials management or high-dollar AR follow-up — the highest-leverage, fastest-ROI workflows — then expand.
Denials categorized late or incorrectly. Appeal packages inconsistent. Root causes never tracked — the same denial repeats endlessly. High-dollar denials get the same treatment as $50 write-offs.
Intelligence detects denial patterns across payers and creates structured cases with deadlines. Ops Agents triage using standardized playbooks, classify with consistent taxonomy, and trigger the right resolution path. Skills enforce evidence requirements. Leaders see denial drivers and prevention opportunities in real time.
AR inventory grows faster than teams can work it. High-dollar claims get lost in the noise. Follow-up cadence is inconsistent. Nobody knows why a claim is stuck until they manually investigate.
Intelligence prioritizes the AR inventory daily by dollar impact × urgency × probability. Ops Agents diagnose stuck claims, determine the next best action, execute follow-up, document rationale, and schedule the next touch. Every action feeds back into prioritization models.
Services rendered without confirmed auth lead to devastating denials. Auth requirements change by payer without notice. Pending auths aren't tracked systematically. Teams find out about auth problems when the claim is already denied.
Ops Agents check auth requirements pre-claim. Pending auths are tracked with follow-up cadence and escalation triggers. Auth reference numbers are captured and linked. The system alerts when requirements change or gaps are detected before billing.
Patients call about confusing statements and wait on hold. Payment plan rules are inconsistently applied. Disputes are captured informally and routed without context. Collection calls start before self-pay options are exhausted.
Support Agents explain balances in plain language backed by ledger data. Payment plan eligibility is checked against policy rules. Disputes are captured with structured reason codes. Self-service resolves common issues; escalation includes full context.
ERA exceptions pile up. Posting variances go undetected until month-end. Lockbox deposits require manual matching. Underpayments are caught by accident, if at all.
Ops Agents triage ERA posting exceptions with rule-based classification. Deposits and lockbox files are reconciled. Underpayments are flagged by comparing paid vs. contract terms — with calculation traces and contract citations.
Records requests are generated inconsistently. Follow-ups slip through the cracks. Incomplete records delay claims and appeals. Nobody knows which cases are blocked on outstanding requests.
Ops Agents generate standardized records requests. Received documents are validated for completeness. Follow-up sequences fire automatically. Cases blocked on records are flagged with aging and escalation triggers.
