Reporting
|
NGS makes available standard reporting at the client's desired frequency at no additional costs. The types of reports available are check registers, utilizations, transaction registers, and management summaries. Clients may receive the reports via email (encrypted to HIPAA standards) or they may access the reports on-line over our website through HIPAA compliant SSL (secure socket layer protection) software. In addition to standard reporting, NGS provides extensive customized reporting and data drill down capabilities as highlighted below.
- Query reporting - Query is an AS/400 tool for pulling and sorting data elements captured in the claim adjudication record. A special unit in our IT area is dedicated to handling requests for query reporting from our clients. Query reports typically involve minimal programming charges (1 to 2 hours) and are available quickly, usually within a 48 hour turnaround. Depending upon run time, most previously developed query reports can be run without additional charge.
- Ad-hoc reporting - Where more complex requests require calculations or "if- then" statements, our special reporting unit can prepare one time only reports (OTO). OTO reports can also be transitioned to regular reporting and set up to run on a scheduler or upon request.
- Fully programmed reports - If a client wants a fully customized report, we can also support this.
NGS also offers Medstat's Net Effects tool which provides secure, web based data mining from the customer's desktop. A separate ad hoc tool is available for customized reports. Medstat is the nation's largest database for employee benefits so customers enjoy extensive benchmarking as well as the ability on an optional basis to maintain an integrated data warehouse from all service providers.
