How to read your clean claim rate
Benchmark. Many high-performing teams target a clean claim rate above 95%.
Your clean claim rate measures how often a claim is accepted and paid the first time, with no edits, rejections, or rework. Every point below your target is labor: claims that have to be touched again, and cash that arrives days or weeks later than it should. For DME especially, first-pass success hinges on the order, documentation, coding, and eligibility all being right before the claim is submitted.
