Product methodology
Revenue Cycle Leakage Atlas
Source contract, normalization path, entity-graph join, refresh posture, and publication limits for this Branmoor product.
Status
Pending. This product is pending. The methodology page is published first so the source contract and join path are visible before Branmoor represents the product as live.
Distribution Scope
Nationwide where disclosures exist; TN/TennCare focus; Nashville RCM diligence cut
Product Question
Quantifies revenue-cycle friction and collection-risk signals for provider underwriting.
Primary Sources
- State denial and complaint disclosures — Denial, complaint, appeal, and resolution patterns where public
- Payer manuals and provider bulletins — Administrative requirements, authorization rules, and timely filing terms
- NSA IDR public files — Dispute and payment-friction context
- Transparency in Coverage and Hospital Price Transparency files — Expected commercial rate context for underpayment analysis
Entity-Graph Join
`payer_id`, `npi`, `ccn`, CPT/HCPCS, state regulator, appeal/denial reason taxonomy.
Publication Rule
Branmoor does not treat raw public records as the product. A surface is publishable only when the source record is dated, normalized, source-linked, and joined to the relevant Branmoor entity identifiers with enough confidence to state the limits of the result.
Current Methodology Note
Pending methodology. Atlas cells require enough public observation count to state confidence. Sparse cells stay suppressed or labeled incomplete.
Limits
Coverage follows the underlying source. Missing state portals, gated APIs, PDF-only filings, suppressed fields, lagged agency refreshes, and entity-name ambiguity can all limit product completeness. Pending products are not marketed as live until those limits are documented on the product surface.
