A R Best Practices to Improve Medial Practice Cash Flow

Effective management of Accounts Receivable is one of the vital areas in medical practices and it consumes a lot of time. It is imperative either to devote quality time on this vital process or outsource the task to reliable third-party revenue cycle management service providers.

Significance of Accounts Receivable in Health Care Facilities
It proves tough and time-consuming to track down the old balances and denied claims. With shortage of resources, not all the practices will be able to spare the time and staff for handling this laborious, yet important task. As it is well-known that the chances of collecting balance payments shrinks with time, it is essential that practices make an all-out effort to avoid delays and denials in colleting payments for services provided.

This demands a focused effort toward achieving an efficient accounts receivable management process that helps maximize practice collections and thus lead to better cash flow. Improvement in collection naturally results in improved bottom line of the practices.

Accounts Receivable Management Best Practices
By following certain A R management best practices, it will be possible to achieve the expected level of payment collection in medical practices. A few of these have been mentioned below:
 Timely and comprehensive statement generation: sending out accurate and timely statements to patients is the first step in efficient payment collection
 Alternate payment channels: Patient-specific payment options will improve payment collection greatly
 Skilled representatives for negotiation: By engaging personnel with high negotiation skills will help speed up the collection process
 Regular Follow-up on Payment: Keeping track of pending payments and following up regularly is the best way to improve collection
 Smooth Communication: Creating multi-faceted communication channels helps reach out to patients easily, thus resulting in improved payment
