Answer: Actually, some groups do perform a quality control check on each account prior to it being processed. This is a great way to measure accuracy, but - you're right - it is incredibly time-consuming.
Instead, you can pull accounts at random. For example, pull 25 accounts per receptionist per month - or per week, if you have time. In addition, maintain a log of all errors that are found retroactively - that is, when working a denial. Use both of these methods consistently over time and by employee, and you should be able to capture a good accuracy rate.
