  billing and revenue management: Reinventing Revenue Cycle Management April Wilson, Casey Williams, Marty Callahan, 2018-06-08 While the industry continues to undergo growing pains, transitioning to value-based care from fee-for-service, hospitals and providers are also fielding new challenges that have emerged on the regulatory, technology, and patient-consumer fronts. Hospitals and providers are in a race against one another to find new ways to attract and retain patients. Now that patients are assuming greater financial responsibility for their healthcare costs, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, their expectations are high about having a positive clinical and financial experience. Therefore, the engagement of patients should begin before the actual clinical encounter. The RCM departments of forward-thinking organizations recognize that an active patient engagement strategy is an effective way of influencing positive patient payment behaviors.Revenue cycle plays an intrinsic role in the overall patient experience, and there are multiple touchpoints by which to engage patients before billing them. Some examples include being transparent with patients at the outset about their financial obligations, removing barriers to payment by providing flexible options and payment tools, such as an online payment portal, and enhancing the design of billing statements. Patient engagement that prioritizes consumer satisfaction can lead to good financial outcomes for healthcare organizations.This book will help RCM professionals navigate the changing environment successfully.
