Risk Adjustment Services That Strengthen Accuracy, Compliance & Financial Integrity
Delivering clinical certainty for Medicare Advantage, Medicaid and commercial risk programs. Healthcare organizations rely on accurate risk adjustment to ensure fair reimbursement, appropriate care management, and a correct reflection of population acuity. Evolving coding guidelines, documentation variations, and increasing audit expectations have made risk adjustment more complex. Valiant Lifecare provides a complete, clinically grounded risk adjustment service suite designed to improve condition capture, documentation accuracy, and compliance — all while supporting long-term financial stability.
Clinical Review Expertise
Clinician-led reviews and certified coding specialists collaborate to ensure accurate HCC capture and defensible documentation for each condition.
End-to-End Risk Support
From in-year concurrent reviews to retrospective reconciliation and RAF optimization, we cover the full risk adjustment lifecycle.
Audit-Ready Outputs
Every condition we identify is documented with source evidence and a clear audit trail to support appeals, RADV and regulatory reviews.
A Complete Risk Adjustment Ecosystem
Our risk adjustment team works across concurrent, prospective and retrospective review models, allowing health plans and provider groups to capture clinical complexity accurately while reducing operational burden and audit exposure.
Concurrent Reviews
We review current-year documentation to validate active chronic conditions while encounters are still recent. Concurrent review helps providers address documentation gaps in real time and supports timely HCC capture.
Prospective Reviews
Prior to visits, we analyze historical records and identify conditions needing confirmation or evaluation. Prospective review turns encounters into proactive opportunities to document and manage chronic disease status.
Retrospective Reviews
Our post-period reviews identify missed conditions, inconsistent documentation, and coding gaps that could affect risk scores or audit outcomes. Retrospective work supports reconciliation, supplemental capture, and RADV preparedness.
HCC Identification & Validation
Each diagnosis is reviewed against clinical criteria and coding standards. We validate supporting documentation, confirm clinical intent, and assemble an audit-ready evidence trail to defend HCC inclusion.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between concurrent, prospective and retrospective reviews?
Concurrent reviews validate documentation during the service year; prospective reviews identify gaps before patient encounters so providers can confirm conditions; retrospective reviews reconcile missed documentation after the period for supplemental capture and RADV readiness.

We review clinical documentation against established coding guidelines and clinical criteria, confirm the clinical intent and source evidence, and create an audit-ready record that maps the diagnosis to supporting notes, labs and encounter details.
Can you support RADV and audit preparation?
Yes. Our retrospective reviews, documentation assembly, and audit-ready outputs are designed to support RADV, IVA and other payer or regulatory audits.
