Welcome back to Care Decoded! In this episode, we dive into the second part of our RADV miniseries, shifting focus from what RADV is, to the crucial role of frontline providers in ensuring accurate, defensible documentation as part of everyday care. Host Mark McKeown is joined once again by Colleen Gianatasio, an expert in risk adjustment and value-based care with over 20 years of experience.

Together, they explore why provider documentation is the foundation for RADV compliance, the biggest barriers clinicians face in meeting documentation requirements, and how the right technology, like AI-driven coding support, can help bridge the gap between compliance demands and real-world clinical practice.

You’ll hear practical strategies for reducing provider burnout, cultivating a culture of accuracy, and fostering effective collaboration between plans and providers, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and a stronger, more resilient healthcare system. Let’s keep decoding care together!
