Care providers are now aiming at driving revenue with the help of technology.
FREMONT, CA: Emerging technologies have the potential to make a hospital's revenue cycle management more dynamic and return more profit to healthcare organizations. Care providers play a vital role in driving the revenue as they look after the well being of their patients. Administrators in care delivery organizations create an atmosphere that responds to the health care requirements of the community, acting as connections between patients and insurance firms for billing and payments.
• Electronic Health Record (EHR) for Revenue Generation

EHRs are decreasing costs by making administrative tasks more productive as well as promoting better patient results. It empowers doctors with innovative tools and clinical data. As the industry changes to helping value-based care models, EHR systems are relatively crucial for sustainable revenue cycle management. AI embedded in EHR can recover lost revenue from rejected claims, especially those denied due to eligibility concerns or authorization that wasn't received in advance of a procedure. With robotic process automation, providers can send an authorization request from the same system they schedule or document a service.
• Artificial Intelligence
AI technologies like ML and NLP are on the cusp of making a connection between RCM staff and healthcare insurers transaction fully touchless. AI technology such as ML pairs with robotic process automation to smartly route responses to authorized staff or workflow which neutralizes the requirement for any human intervention at all to make a query, even for those that need clinical data input.
• Billing Bots Streamlining Revenue
Intelligent automation scripts, robotic process automation, or web bots can intelligently interact with payers at a surprising scale, and bring millions in revenue back to the hospital's net profit. Bots can run various repetitive, rules-based processes that need to happen between different systems. It frees up a route to productivity gains in areas that do demand human intelligence and touch. These bots are the money-savers that hospitals are looking for.
