Testimonial
“Our coders pride themselves on being accurate and efficient. We don’t see those as trade-offs. TurboGrouper allows us to find the right codes quickly and the HAC flag is crucial to our new HAC management workflow. Having used the sister product TurboCoder for years, we knew that we could rely on TurboGrouper for accuracy and speed, and we were not disappointed.”
Laura Royce, HIS Manager at St Vincent’s Private Hospital Melbourne
Maximise Clinical Coding & Grouping Productivity and Valuable Healthcare Resources
TurboGrouper uses advanced proprietary software technology to redefine productivity by providing the highest levels of accuracy and speed.
- Including Market-Leading TurboCoder ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS clinical coding tool combined with FAST IHACPA certified AR-DRG grouper
- Up-to-Date – Latest IHACPA Coding Rules, Errata and software enhancements always issued before the implementation date so re-coding and re-grouping are not necessary
- Computer-Assisted Coding – Powerful CAC features that accelerate the coding process and deliver absolute coding and grouping accuracy
- Faithfully representing the classification content and providing for ‘coding convention’ practices such as lead term search
Optimise Reimbursement while Slashing Software Costs
- CodeSuggest™ intelligently prompts coders with diagnosis and intervention codes to help ensure everything on the medical record has been coded and the hospital is fully reimbursed
- Code Correctly ‘first time every time’ – Eliminating costly processes like coding pathway validation and episode re-coding, and reducing rejected claims and poor audit results
- HAC – Hospital-Acquired Complications score and their cost implications visible while coding so reimbursement optimally reflects the medical record and facilitates care quality improvement initiatives
- DRG Versions and ECCS – Instant access to all DRG Versions and the Episode Clinical Complexity Score while coding
- Cost Effective – Flexible and affordable subscription model will save most hospitals tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars annually
Trust TurboGrouper
Since the introduction of Activity Based Funding (ABF), where a hospital’s funding is dictated by the diseases and interventions of patients treated, their ability to code and group clinical records accurately and efficiently is essential.
At EIS, we believe that productivity equals accuracy plus speed. So when we developed TurboGrouper we did so on the trusted foundation of the proven, market-leading TurboCoder clinical coding productivity solution – renowned for its accuracy and relied upon by most leading hospitals as the ‘gold standard’ to validate the code selection and pathways assigned by other brands of coding and grouping software.
Powered by the Award-Winning eComPress Technology, TurboGrouper is the fastest, most accurate and most cost-effective ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS coding and AR-DRG grouping solution available to optimise your valuable healthcare resources. TurboGrouper gives clinical coders all the necessary information to select diagnosis and intervention codes accurately and generate the correct DRG first time every time.
Applicable for Australia, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Ireland and all other countries licensed to use ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS and the AR-DRG.
