Health systems rely on effective revenue cycle management to follow the patient journey, navigate claims, and ensure the organization collects payment for its services. In today’s complex and fluid healthcare industry, in which revenue cycle management is about much more than billing and collecting payment, traditional revenue cycle approaches can’t meet escalating demands. Additionally, with lost volume due to COVID-19, organizations can’t afford to miss an opportunity for payment. The contemporary healthcare landscape requires a comprehensive, standardized, and data-driven revenue cycle process. Health systems that leverage data to support revenue cycle management improve their financial outcomes in three significant ways: 1. Reduce denials. 2. Increase collections with propensity-to-pay insight. 3. Improve discharged-not-final-billed efforts.
