RCM INTELLIGENCE

Know What Your Metrics Actually Mean.

Revenue-cycle metrics need context. Specialty, payer mix, organization type, service mix, technology, and operating model can materially change how a KPI should be interpreted.

01

Benchmark the Right Things

  • Days in A/R
  • A/R aging
  • Clean claim rate
  • First-pass resolution
  • Denial rate
  • Net collection rate
  • Gross collection rate
  • Cost to collect
  • Underpayments
  • Payer performance

02

Context Before Conclusions

A benchmark can identify a question worth investigating, but it should not automatically be treated as a universal target. We use benchmarks as one input in a broader performance assessment.

03

Build Your Own Baseline

For many organizations, the most useful benchmark is a consistent internal baseline that shows whether performance is improving, deteriorating, or varying across specialties, locations, payers, and vendors.

Start With the Numbers

Understand where performance is breaking down, what it may be costing your organization, and what should happen next.
