Statistical Sampling & Coding Audit Services

Statistical Extrapolation and Self-Reporting

Dozens of provider organizations and their counsels have benefited from our efficient use of statistical sampling and extrapolation to provide proactive or reactive overpayment determinations to government and commercial payors. Our team offers step-by-step guidance throughout the entire overpayment process, from initial planning to the final report development and submission.

We use the HHS OIG’s standard protocols and RAT STATS statistical sampling software to promote the acceptance of our results by MACS and other oversight agencies. We also provide you with the tools and understanding to explain our statistical analysis to your executive team and board. We have never had a regulator question our reports. 

To learn more about our Statistical Extrapolation and Self Reporting services, see our case studies on statistical sampling, our related Healthcare Information Management and Medical Records services, or reach out to James Rose, Lorraine Aniello, or Rachael Mills.

Testimonials

"SunHawk demonstrated a commendable commitment to precision and compliance throughout our engagement. Their expertise in navigating complex healthcare regulations was evident, providing us with a thorough and insightful audit. We required assistance with a complex billing audit that required statistical analysis. As a smaller healthcare system, SunHawk provided us a level of audit expertise that we are not able to staff in-house. The team’s responsiveness and industry knowledge make them a valuable partner for healthcare organizations seeking rigorous and reliable auditing services."
