Denial triage
Denials sorted by payer, reason code and dollar value, then prioritized for fastest recovery.
Helix works every denial to root cause, appeals fast and aggressively pursues aged A/R — overturning 70%+ of the denials we touch and pulling back revenue stuck in your aging report.
Worked to resolution, not just resubmitted.

"We had a half-million dollars rotting in our aging report and a denial rate nobody could explain. Helix found the patterns and went and got the money."
Prior-auth and medical-necessity denials on injections and blocks were piling up, with $512K in claims aging past 90 days and timely-filing windows starting to close.
Helix ran a 120-day recovery sprint — working denials by payer and reason code, filing documentation-backed appeals, and feeding root causes back into the auth and scrubbing workflow.
76% of worked denials were overturned, the denial rate fell 71%, A/R days dropped to 23, and $512K in aged claims was recovered before filing deadlines lapsed.
Representative composite based on Helix engagement outcomes. Individual results vary.
"They worked claims our own team had already given up on — and actually got them paid."
"Fixing the root cause meant the same denials stopped coming back. That was the real win."
