A better path to payments: Does your RCM partner measure up?

A better path to payments: Does your RCM partner measure up?

When it comes to patient payments, are you missing out on important opportunities to capture revenue? If your RCM partner can’t keep up, you could be unknowingly harming your health organization’s growth.

With disconnected front- and back-end processes as well as ever-changing payer rules, outdated revenue cycle management technology can cause revenue leakage that impacts your bottom line. Issues like poor charge capture, increased denials, and missing or inaccurate eligibility all slow down your revenue cycle, delaying critical funds to your organization.

Inefficient workflows and poor visibility across systems can cause the work to pile up for your team members, keeping them away from more important tasks face-to-face with your patients. Manual efforts to collect and submit information to payers can not only create more errors in data but can also increase turnover and burnout among your team.

In addition, unproductive efforts to clear patients and manage claims can increase the cost to collect and even result in delayed payment. That means tedious re-working for your staff, inefficient appeal efforts, and reconciliation challenges that add to the stress.

Don’t settle for an RCM provider that doesn’t have your back. As a premier partner, Waystar helps simplify and unify the entire revenue cycle — all because we are invested in your success.

Not all clearinghouses are created equal

Don’t trust your revenue cycle to just anybody. Your RCM partner is supposed to make your financial and administrative workflows easier, not create more confusion and frustration.
