There’s a quiet battle taking place, with no field hospitals for the sick and wounded, and no bloodshed.

But the stakes are high, and the losses are unforgiving.

It’s the battle of algorithms.

Employed by both payers and providers, the ultimate prize: money, in the form of reimbursement from submitted claims for medical care. Payers deny and recoup. Providers bill as margins shrink.

During the next live edition of the ever-popular Talk Ten Tuesdays broadcast, senior healthcare analyst Frank Cohen, himself a veteran of algorithmic warfare, will escort you behind the front lines and into war rooms, so that you will have a better understanding of what is contributing to rising medical costs. Cohen’s three-part article series on ICD10monitor.com begins this coming Tuesday.

Other well-known subject-matter experts will also join the broadcast with more news to report, including the following:

• POV: Penny Jefferson, cohost of Talk Ten Tuesday, will share her point of view (POV) during the broadcast.

• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson will provide an update on all things clinical documentation integrity (CDI).

• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger will report on the latest coding news.
