Therap's billing features come with tools to identify instances of medicaid abuses such as inaccurate payments for services or unintentional duplicate payments. The system prevents recording of duplicate services provided to an individual within a date range or authorization period. To further prevent and mitigate risks of fraud or improper claims, Therap comes with multilevel access control features for administrative staff at an agency who review and approve information of billable services provided. Therap forms carry date and time stamped signatures on claim forms and any data entry can easily be traced back to the originator.
