ED IV Infusion Charge Capture: Documenting Stop Times Increases Efficient Care while Enhancing Revenue
The goal was to reduce errors in failure to document stop time for IV infusions to zero. Along with the goal of accurate documentation was the goal to increase revenue by capturing lost charges. Without a proper stop time documented, billing was unable to appropriately charge patients for IV infusions received while in the emergency department.
