Your next critical step is establishing a secure connection between the Revenue Recovery platform and your Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. This connection enables automated data collection and analysis of denied claims. The platform uses a Relay Service architecture to securely connect to your internal systems without exposing them directly to the internet.
Learn how to establish this connection in Connecting your EHR, which provides an overview of the connection architecture and process. For detailed step-by-step instructions, see Linking to Internal Systems.
Create and Configure Organizations
Organizations are the primary way to structure and manage your claims data within Revenue Recovery. Each organization typically represents a distinct healthcare facility, department, or billing entity. Setting up organizations correctly ensures that claims data is properly segmented and accessible to the right users.
To learn more about how organizations work and how to create them, see Organizations. This guide explains the organization concept and how to navigate between different organizations in the platform.
Configure Platform Settings
As an administrator, you may want to review and adjust platform-wide settings to match your organization's requirements. These settings control authentication methods, security policies, user permissions, and other system-level configurations.
For detailed information on available settings and how to configure them, see Configuring Authentication and Security Settings.
Set Up Additional Users and Groups
If you need to add more team members or organize users into groups with specific permissions, you can manage these settings in the administration section. User groups allow you to assign roles and permissions to multiple users at once, making it easier to manage access control.
For detailed instructions, see User and Group Management to learn how to add new users, create and manage user groups, and assign appropriate roles and permissions.
Familiarize Yourself with the Dashboard
The Revenue Recovery Dashboard serves as your central command center for monitoring claim denial patterns and identifying recovery opportunities. Take time to explore the dashboard interface and understand the available insights and widgets.
Learn more in Navigation UI Basics, which explains general navigation and UI basics. For detailed information about the dashboard specifically, see Dashboard and Insights, which explains how to navigate the dashboard interface and interpret the key metrics displayed in various widgets.
