A charge master audit is a systematic review process conducted in healthcare organizations to ensure accurate billing and coding services provided to patients. It involves reviewing the medical record documentation, billing information, place of service codes, billing provider, etc. to verify that all services rendered are appropriately documented and billed for.  Healthcare billing is subject to numerous regulations and requirements, including those set forth by federal payers like Medicare and Medicaid. Charge capture audits help ensure compliance with these regulations, reducing the risk of legal and financial penalties associated with billing errors or fraudulent practices.  Charge master audits ensure financial integrity by billing correctly for the services provided.

By identifying missed charges or coding errors, charge capture audits help healthcare organizations optimize their revenue. Proper documentation and coding of services provided can maximize reimbursement from payers and improve the organization's financial performance.  It prevents underbilling, which can lead to revenue loss, and overbilling, which can result in compliance issues, fines, or reputational damage.  Charge capture audits are essential for maintaining the financial health, operational health, and compliance within healthcare organizations, making them an integral part of revenue cycle management and healthcare administration.
