Healthcare Contract and Invoice Audit

Audit hospital vendor invoices against the contracts behind them.

AllCaps audits hospital and health system vendor invoices against service contracts, amendments, and rate schedules to find credits, rebates, and charges that do not match the agreement. Each finding shows the invoice or service record, the contract term, and the calculation.

Typical leakage

Where the money goes

Hospital service contracts carry performance terms that facilities and finance teams rarely have time to enforce.

Uptime credits never claimed

Tiered credits owed when equipment availability falls below the contracted level.

Preventive maintenance shortfalls

Penalties that apply when preventive maintenance completion falls below the agreed threshold.

Response time failures

Credits owed per incident when emergency response exceeds the contract commitment.

Rebates not paid

Spend-based rebates that are due after year-end and depend on someone asking for them.

Rates outside the contract

Labor, parts, and overage charges that do not follow the agreed rate schedule.

Escalators above the cap

Annual increases applied above the percentage or index the contract allows.

Evidence

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a healthcare contract audit?

A healthcare contract audit checks whether vendors are billing and performing as their contracts require. AllCaps compares invoices and service records with contract terms to find unclaimed credits, unpaid rebates, and charges the agreement does not allow.

Which hospital contracts can AllCaps audit?

AllCaps can audit vendor agreements with enforceable commercial terms, such as biomedical equipment service, facilities, staffing, and other purchased services.

Does the audit need patient data?

No. The audit uses contracts, invoices, spend records, and vendor performance reports, and it does not require patient information.

How is this different from a CLM or AP system?

CLMs store and route contracts, and AP systems process invoices. AllCaps checks whether invoices and vendor performance comply with the contract, and it works alongside those systems.

Will AllCaps contact our vendors?

Not without your approval. Findings come with contract and clause support for your team to review first, and any external action remains subject to your approval.

How is a healthcare contract audit priced?

The Proof Audit is a one-time fee scoped and priced to your contracts and invoices. Ongoing audit is a subscription based on contract and invoice volume.
