What is it?
Auto-MBS is a clinician-friendly billing assistant that converts daily ICU documentation into ready-to-submit Medicare claims.
The challenge
Manual billing is time-consuming and error-prone, requiring doctors to match clinical notes to the right Medicare item numbers. This results in missed revenue, delays, and frustration for staff.
How it works
Every 24 hours, Auto-MBS scans de-identified encounter data in the Clinical Data Nexus, identifies privately insured ICU admissions, and maps procedures and events to MBS codes using a transparent rules engine. Clinicians review and confirm with a single click — no manual chart trawl needed — then forward the final claim to billing.
