Case study 2: High-dollar claim savings
DRG outlier identified, resulting in $600,000 savings.
Diagnosis-related group (DRG) outlier
For a Blues plan, Optum clinical staff found dosages for the identified medication far exceeding the recommended maintenance dose for a neonate. This saved our client nearly $600,000, more than one-fourth of the billed charges.
