‘Twas the night before auditing, and all through the floor,
The auditors prepped, ready to explore.
The charts were all stacked, each file in its place,
While audit reports awaited their grace.
The coders were dreaming of claims they’d submit,
But the auditors knew they’d have to review it.
With highlighter in hand and a keen, steady eye,
They’d ensure every detail was accurate, no lie.
They scanned each procedure, each diagnosis, too,
Double-checking the codes, making sure they were true.
From the dates of service to the notes in the file,
Every piece of the puzzle examined in style.
“Was this medically necessary?” they’d ask with care,
“Does the documentation prove what’s written is fair?”
They’d cross-reference everything, leaving no stone unturned,
For accuracy and compliance was what they’d discerned.
They reviewed the modifiers, the codes, and the fees,
Ensuring the claims were submitted with ease.
Each step was precise, their work so complete,
For auditors thrive on each challenge they meet.
With a flick of the pen, they’d mark what they found,
No errors too big, no mistakes would abound.
They’d prepare their report, each detail laid bare,
With fairness and clarity, showing they care.
As the night wore on, they’d finish the task,
No question too tricky, no answer to ask.
With a sigh of relief, they’d know they had done,
The job that ensures the system runs on.
And as they left work with the night drawing near,
They whispered, “Goodnight, we’ll be back next year.”
For tomorrow, they knew, they’d return once again,
To audit, to verify, and guide with their pen.
