Practical tools for the revenue cycle

Calculators, searchable references, and readiness checklists for medical billing — built to give you a clear next step without storing what you enter.

Interactive tools

Work a problem, not a worksheet

Purpose-built interactive tools for the questions billers ask every day.

Denial Code Decoder

Type the CARC or remark code off your remittance and follow a guided, animated path to the right action — fix and resubmit, appeal, or write off. 32 codes and growing.

Open the tool

Patient Cost Estimator

Allowed amount, remaining deductible, coinsurance, copay — watch the patient's share re-flow live as an animated breakdown. Nothing you enter is stored.

Open the tool

Timely Filing Calculator

Date of service plus your payer's filing limit — the deadline date and a countdown ring that shifts from green to red as the window closes.

Open the tool

A/R Aging Distribution Calculator

Enter your four aging buckets and watch the balance decompose into one bar — including the share sitting over 90 days, the oldest money on the report and the closest to whatever filing or appeal deadline its payer applies.

Open the tool

Appeal Letter Builder

Answer a few questions and watch a professional appeal letter write itself — five appeal types, drafted entirely in your browser, nothing stored.

835 / ERA Remittance Explainer

Paste a raw 835 fragment and read it segment by segment — hover or tab a segment to light up the line it came from, see where each claim's charge went, and find the provider-level adjustments that explain a short deposit. Nothing leaves your browser.

Open the tool

Remit Balancing Checker

Enter one claim's figures off a remittance and see whether it balances — charge against payment plus every adjustment, compared in whole cents, with the exact delta when it doesn't.

Open the tool

Appeal Deadline Calculator

Enter the denial date and the filing limit from your own contract — get the deadline as a date, plus what is left in calendar days and in weekdays. We never assert a payer's deadline; you supply it.

Open the tool

HCPCS Level II Code Lookup

Search every HCPCS Level II code — supplies, drugs, equipment, orthotics, ambulance — by the code itself or by what the item is. CMS descriptors, deleted codes kept and dated, and the whole search runs in your browser.

Open the tool

ICD-10-CM Code Lookup

Look up any ICD-10-CM diagnosis code and see at once whether it can go on a claim. Nearly a quarter of the code set is category headers — real ICD-10-CM entries that are not valid for submission — and every result says which it is, with the codes underneath one click away.

Open the tool

Contractual Variance Calculator

Enter the allowed amount your contract says to expect and what the remittance actually shows, line by line — see exactly where a payer allowed less than it agreed to. Plan payment plus patient responsibility is the allowed amount; leave the patient share out and every coinsurance reads as an underpayment.

Open the tool

Credentialing Planner

Pick a start date and payer mix — a phase-by-phase timeline draws itself with honest typical ranges for when a provider can actually bill.

Open the tool
Calculators

Calculators you can use right now

Enter your own figures and read the arithmetic back. Every calculator states its assumptions, stores nothing, and never compares your result to a benchmark.

denial-rate

Denial rate calculator

Enter your own figures — it calculates live, in your browser, and stores nothing.

Claims the payer refused to pay after adjudication. A rejection that never reached adjudication is not a denial.

Your chosen denominator, over the same period. Conventions vary — see the assumptions below.

Enter your figures to see the result and a breakdown.
