Every test validated
before it becomes
a claim.

Clientele automates every stage of laboratory revenue cycle management: test ordering, medical necessity validation, panel and CPT sequencing, NCD/LCD coverage rules, provider verification and molecular authorization, through one diagnostic intelligence network.

Clientele AI

An intelligence layer that reads the order, the diagnosis and the payer policy together, then returns a coded, covered, submission-ready claim.

Purpose-built for the lab

Trained on diagnostic ordering patterns: panel composition, diagnosis-to-test coverage, NCD/LCD policy language and molecular authorization criteria, so review reflects how your orders actually arrive.

Field notes

From the laboratories we work with

Panel bundling errors were our largest write-off category. They were understood, mapped and closed within the first quarter.
Regional Clinical Laboratory
Revenue Cycle Director · Pennsylvania
Molecular authorizations now reach approval before the specimen is resulted, instead of after a denial.
Molecular Diagnostics Group
Director of Billing · California
They read the LCD the way the payer reads it. That distinction changed our medical-necessity denial rate.

FAQ

Questions from laboratory leadership

Anything else, a Laboratory RCM specialist will walk your team through it directly.

Each order is tested against payer coverage policy for the specific test: the submitted diagnosis must support the assay, the intent must be clear, and frequency limits must be satisfied. Orders that cannot be supported are surfaced to the lab before the claim goes out.

Component tests that belong to a comprehensive panel are rolled into the correct code rather than billed individually, and legitimately separate tests are kept separate with the documentation that justifies them. This removes the most common source of laboratory coding rework.

Yes. National and local coverage determinations are applied by jurisdiction and payer, including policy-specific diagnosis lists and documentation requirements, so coverage is evaluated the way the policy actually reads.

Molecular and hereditary panels are routed through authorization tracking: criteria assembled from the clinical record, submission monitored, and approval confirmed before the claim releases. Expiring approvals surface ahead of lapse.

NPI validity, enrollment status and ordering privileges are checked at accession. Invalid or non-enrolled ordering providers are flagged at intake instead of returning weeks later as a rejection.

We integrate with the systems your laboratory already runs (LIS, billing platform and clearinghouse) and read from your existing requisition flow. No change to how orders arrive is required to begin.

Presumptive and definitive testing are evaluated against documented treatment intent, with drug class counts and per-day unit limits enforced, which is where most toxicology denials originate.

Accession-level auditability plus operational reporting on medical-necessity accuracy, panel coding accuracy, authorization success, provider validation, clean claim rate and A/R turnaround, segmented by test line, client and payer.
