The process today

Every payer, every deadline tracked by hand.

Cost coverage requests, approval and denial letters, and payer inquiries arrive unstructured and with different deadlines. Delayed payer submissions cost reimbursements, while manual review and deadline tracking ties up administrative capacity.

Frequently asked

Cost coverage approvals, answered briefly.

Which payer documents does Parashift recognise?
Requests for cost coverage and the replies to them, payer queries and requests for additional information, medical review correspondence, rejections and deadline notices.
How are deadlines detected?
Parashift reads the deadline date, case number, payer and process type from the document and hands them over as structured fields. Deadline tracking then runs in your system instead of a spreadsheet.
What happens when an item carries no clear case number?
It is flagged as open and forwarded with the context that was recognised, so the match is made deliberately by a person.
How does the result reach the HIS or practice system?
Through the API or HL7. The item is handed over with type, payer, case and deadline and is processed further in the leading system.
How is patient data protected?
The processing location can be set to data centres in Switzerland or the EU, with an access log per document and defined retention periods. ISO 27001, SOC 2 and C5 evidence is available.
How long does implementation take?
A few weeks: align the item types, define the fields, connect to the HIS, run in parallel.
