What is the Medicare Cost Reporting Module?

The Medicare Cost Reporting Module within Dynafios is an integrated tool that simplifies the management of Medicare time studies and reimbursement. This solution automates the collection and reporting of provider compensation data, ensuring compliance with Medicare’s stringent regulations while improving operational efficiency. With this module, healthcare facilities can be confident that their time studies are accurate, audit-ready, and compliant.

What is Medicare Cost Reporting?

MCR is a crucial process for healthcare organizations, particularly those that provide specialized services like teaching, transplant, and pastoral care. To qualify for additional Medicare revenue, organizations must undergo a certification process and conduct an annual time study to track provider activities. This time study helps organizations capture the full extent of their work, ensuring they receive appropriate compensation for their services.

The Medicare regulations require facilities to:

  • Submit annual time study dates, ensuring all months within the year are included.
  • Develop and submit a calendar to Medicare, which must be approved before the time study year can begin.
  • Track and log hours accurately for all participants involved in the time study, including physicians, clinical staff, pastoral care and other specialties.

The MCR process is essential for maximizing the reimbursement an organization receives from Medicare. The more accurate and complete the time logging, the higher the potential revenue.

How Does the Dynafios MCR Module Help?

comprehensive healthcare reporting

The Dynafios Medicare Cost Reporting (MCR) Module offers a comprehensive solution for healthcare organizations to track time studies, submit accurate data, and ensure compliance with Medicare regulations. Here’s how we can help:

1. Accurate Time Logging for Maximized Reimbursement

For every provider participating in the time study, there is potential revenue. Missing even a few participants can result in lost funding. Dynafios makes it easy to ensure 100% participation in the time study, with automated reminders and visual cues to track who has logged their hours and who has not.

2. Automated Time Study Tracking

Gone are the days of paper logs or scattered spreadsheets. Our platform provides an efficient way to log hours for each participant during the required time study weeks. With the mobile app, users see color-coded weeks and cannot log time outside the designated study period. When hours are logged, the color changes from orange to green, providing an intuitive visual cue for staff to know when they’ve successfully submitted their time.

3. Comprehensive Analytics Dashboard

Our analytics dashboard shows who has and hasn’t submitted their time, ensuring full participation. This visibility helps finance departments track progress and verify that all required participants have submitted their time studies. Customizable reporting allows you to focus on the data that matters most to your team, whether it’s tracking submissions or ensuring compliance across departments like pastoral care, transplants, and more.

4. Effortless Calculations & Reporting

At the end of the period, the MCR Module generates reports based on the Medicare time studies, including all necessary calculations like pre- and post-transplant hours. These reports are fully automated, saving your team time and effort. Instead of manually calculating hours, Dynafios does it for you, creating an accurate, ready-to-submit report.

5. Seamless Integration and Customization

Dynafios integrates smoothly into your existing systems and can be customized to fit your needs. Whether you are working with transplant, providing physician training, or offering any other specialty service, our MCR Module can adapt to track time studies across multiple departments and ensure compliance.
