Look forward to a better bottom line—and increased patient satisfaction Many providers face a of lack insight into agent performance and call durations, as well as the ability to route telephone calls to representatives based on experience or inquiry type. Others use manual vs. automated processes to call patients with outstanding balances. Having the ability to both contact patients and take inbound calls using a cloud-based dialing platform can significantly increase your collections and penetration rates. Some platforms can even provide the ability to monitor agent activity for performance and take payments after hours when no live agents are available, and provide access to actionable insight into call volumes and durations, giving you the ability to make more strategic decisions and adjust process flows. Increase the effectiveness of your collection and patient engagement strategies by pairing online and print communication channels using outbound and inbound dialing technology.

Multi-specialty, academic, non-profit healthcare delivery system increases productivity and improves resource efficiency The prior and pre-authorization inquiry and submission processes within patient access can be challenging for healthcare providers, as it’s often manual, cumbersome, and steps within the process can be missed or poorly integrated—frustrating both staff and patients. Experian Health’s Authorizations helped one of its healthcare delivery system clients increase efficiency and empower staff to spend more time with patients to discuss estimated liability and financial responsibility and provide them with payment plan options. “We needed an authorization solution that was integrated within our Epic workflow, easy-to-use and that our team could rally behind. We found that solution in Experian Health’s Authorizations tool.” —Director, Pre-service Center, multi-specialty, academic non-profit healthcare delivery system Inquiries are now automated and take place behind the scenes without user intervention.

During HIMSS17 in Orlando, Jason Wallis, Senior Vice President, Patient Access at Experian Health, sat down with IntrepidNOW to talk patient access and how Experian Health's solutions help providers across the revenue cycle. Excerpt below: "We have the eCare NEXT platform that drives a lot of our integration and patient access products. So anywhere from orders, all the way back to collecting payment from the patients, so right identity, checking eligibility, authorizations, medical necessity, patient estimates and then a tool to collect payment from that patient for those estimates. …we’ve really taken this eligibility rail that has been pretty standard in the industry, and we’ve added a lot of content and innovation on top of those rails. So I almost call our clearing house a content network. So we drive more value in that transaction by normalizing, cleaning the data and enriching it with other data assets, so that downstream our clients and our products are better because of that advanced content. …our integrated platform takes this data and be able to start chaining products together, and deliver back to the provider an exception based workflow that really has their staff only looking and working when something’s gone wrong. And the more we can automate around products and even products chaining off of other products, so eligibility to notice of admission, we are able to remove some of those manual single point solutions because it’s integrated in a single workflow."
