Shoreline Medical Administration, CHUM Health, and Cellution Biologics have launched the Elite Graft Program to integrate biologic graft access with revenue cycle and compliance support. The initiative provides financial protections for wound care providers navigating clinical and reimbursement complexities.
Why it matters
Providers face significant financial risks linked to wound care clinical outcomes and post-payment Medicare audits. This program attempts to minimize these exposures by bundling documentation review and clawback protection into a single service model.
Clinical trials for the AmchoPlast graft showed a 71% complete wound closure rate compared to 23% for standard care. The product usage also demonstrated a 78% reduction in wound area during testing.
The players
Shoreline Medical Administration
An administrative firm providing clinical documentation review and financial protection services to medical practices.
CHUM Health
A healthcare management company specializing in revenue cycle services, including coding, billing, and prior authorization.
Cellution Biologics
A developer and supplier of biologic graft products for the wound care industry.
The details
The program integrates three distinct operational components into a single workflow for wound care practices. Cellution Biologics supplies the graft without upfront costs, while CHUM Health handles administrative tasks including eligibility verification, coding, and appeals. Shoreline Medical Administration manages clinical documentation reviews and provides a financial backstop, covering legal defense and reimbursement costs if a Medicare clawback occurs on approved claims.

Market Landscape
This program marks a departure from traditional fee-for-service models by integrating compliance protection into the supply chain. It follows a pattern set by the increasingly stringent enforcement of Medicare post-payment audit protocols.
Providers should evaluate if the costs of the integrated revenue cycle services are offset by the value of the provided clawback protection. When considering this model, ensure your legal or financial counsel reviews the specifics of the financial reimbursement terms.
The takeaway
The Elite Graft Program shifts the burden of Medicare clawback risk from the individual provider to the service administrator. Interested operators should attend the upcoming 'Beyond the Graft' webinar to understand the specifics of the financial protections offered.
