Geriatric APCM Revenue Growth Case Study | Tile Healthcare

See how a geriatric practice maximized APCM G0558 revenue and improved senior care coordination using AI-powered call automation and QMB identification.

A multi-physician geriatric group in Florida struggled to capture APCM revenue despite a 100% eligible patient base. By implementing Tile Healthcare's AI-driven outreach, they automated G0558 QMB identification and caregiver coordination, turning a complex administrative burden into a streamlined $54,000 monthly revenue engine.

Patient Panel3,200 Medicare & QMB Patients
The Challenge

The practice faced overwhelming call volumes from caregivers and assisted living facility staff. Traditional clinical staff could not keep up with the monthly 20-minute APCM check-in requirements, especially for patients with cognitive decline. They were missing out on high-tier G0558 QMB reimbursements because they lacked a systematic way to identify and document social determinants of health and caregiver engagement for their highest-need patients.

The Solution

The practice deployed Tile Healthcareโ€™s AI call handling system to automate monthly outreach. The AI was specifically programmed to handle complex caregiver-patient-doctor loops, screen for falls and polypharmacy, and verify QMB status. This ensured that every eligible minute of care coordination was tracked and every high-reimbursement patient was identified without increasing the workload on the front-desk staff.

How They Rolled It Out

1

QMB Data Integration

Integrated EHR data with the AI platform to prioritize patients eligible for the $80+ G0558 reimbursement tier by identifying Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries automatically.

2

Caregiver Protocol Design

Developed AI scripts specifically for family members and assisted living staff to ensure clinical data accuracy for patients with cognitive impairment.

3

Fall & Med Review Automation

Programmed the AI to conduct preliminary fall risk assessments and medication reconciliation checks during routine APCM outreach calls.

4

EHR Documentation Sync

Established an automated workflow where AI-generated call summaries and time-logs are pushed directly to the EHR for audit-ready APCM billing.

โ€œThe AI doesn't just make calls; it understands the nuance of geriatric care. We finally have a way to support our QMB patients and their families while actually being compensated for the intensive coordination we have always provided for free.โ€
