Challenges
Earlier all stores setup and doctors credentialing process were done manually.
The new store request used to come in form a hard copy of NPR form, with which all details of the store are attached.
Management used to setup the store and process the approval request manually.
The doctors are attached to the stores and the credentialing process of the doctor was done manually.
This process being manual resulted into creating huge excel files and follow ups in emails and verbal communication.
This process was very time consuming, error prone and very difficult to manage. GVS was seeking for a comprehensive way for automating the current process.
The SVAM Difference
SVAM built a web-based system named Nucleus for GVS.
Nucleus will be used by the front office to activate Stores under different Networks (GVS/VW/RCM) and thereafter credential the doctors with the various insurance plans.
The system is designed to automate the intake process as well as the credentialing process to minimize transition time from when a doctor / store requests to be validated against the insurance RCMs to when the stores can start taking claims against the insurance.
Efficiency Unlocked
Nucleus automated 90% of the tasks which were manual.
Reduce manual user input and reduce the time for follow-up and approval of stores and doctors.
Nucleus helps in automating the complete workflow from Store web form, Approval, Doctor request from Store portal, and Doctor credentialing.
