Mitchell International Transforms Utilization Management with the Launch of ReviewStat Solution

Highly automated medical management workflow solution streamlines
medical necessity reviews, strengthens clinical decisions

SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mitchell International, Inc., a leading provider of technology,
connectivity, and information solutions to the Property
& Casualty (P&C)
claims and Collision
Repair
industries, today announced the launch of the Mitchell ReviewStat®
solution, its newly upgraded, transformative medical management software
for the workers’ compensation industry. Following the 2017 acquisition
of UniMed Direct, Mitchell focused on the core of UniMed’s legacy
ReviewStat product, making enhancements to deliver more robust
capabilities. Mitchell will demonstrate the ReviewStat medical
management software solution on December 5 at the 2018 National Workers’
Compensation and Disability Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada at
booth #7112.

Mitchell’s ReviewStat medical management software enables workers’
compensation insurance carriers, third-party administrators, managed
care and utilization review organizations to manage the complete medical
management claim life cycle. This can include end-to-end processes for
utilization review, physician advisor, nurse case management, and
additional medical examinations and related clinical reviews. A
flexible, web-based software solution to be integrated into medical bill
review applications, and to connect with a variety of channel partner
systems, the ReviewStat solution brings a higher level of automation to
the medical review process.

Mitchell’s ReviewStat medical management software solution is designed
to help users:

  • Realize greater efficiencies, and increase organization effectiveness
    and productivity within utilization review and case management teams
  • Respond to regulatory changes quickly and apply medical treatment
    guidelines for utilization and physician peer reviews
  • Customize dashboard views and robust reporting to easily track trends
    and insights in data over time with export capabilities for further
    analysis
  • Standardize workflows to meet business objectives in delivering
    consistent level of service to customers
  • Leverage highly automated, configurable rules engines that are robust
    and can help facilitate fast, accurate and predictable processing of
    cases
  • Manage the complete medical management lifecycle while tightly
    integrating with stakeholders involved in the care continuum through
    streamlined communication and optimized case flows between parties

“The ReviewStat solution is a leading technology for the medical
management industry. It not only transforms utilization management, but
it is also designed to enhance the entire medical review and clinical
process by offering the ability to connect all parties involved within
the care continuum,” explained Nina Smith, General Manager and Executive
Vice President for Mitchell Casualty Solutions. “By applying automation
to ease the administrative burden, the ReviewStat solution is designed
to help customers reduce costs and free up time for clinical
professionals to focus on helping restore people’s lives after an
injury.”

The ReviewStat solution’s straight-through processing capabilities allow
users to automatically route and assign cases, apply utilization review
decisions appropriately using evidence-based guidelines, and send custom
notifications to all parties working on a case. The software’s flexible
and highly automated nature allows it to help customers in their efforts
to reduce overhead costs, and the time historically required for medical
reviews.

“The ReviewStat solution houses a number of key rules engines, including
the custom rules engine,” Jackie Payne, Vice President of Medical
Management Services for Mitchell Casualty Solutions pointed out. “Custom
rules are based on a specific client’s medical protocols. The automated
treatment guidelines inherent in the ReviewStat solution bring clients
the opportunity to see an increased percentage of their case work
flowing hands-off through the system, either as automated approvals or
administrative compensability-based denials. This kind of automation has
helped our customers focus their specialized staff on the reviews that
require clinical expertise.”

Payne went on to say, “The ReviewStat solution leverages a suite of
engines to enhance workflow while automating many treatment and
decision-making processes. A customer can customize rules to fit its
specific business needs for automated documentation and notes
processing. The solution helps users manage complex scenarios for
notifications to parties and provides rules that can help ensure the
integrity of the data collected throughout the workflow, bringing
improvements to reporting, billing and communications.”

Attendees of the 2018 National Workers’ Compensation and Disability
Conference will have the opportunity to take a first look at Mitchell’s
ReviewStat solution on December 5, 2018 from 3 – 4 pm PT at Mitchell
booth #7112.
