Common Healthcare Improvement Issues

Common revenue opportunities identified and capitalized on through U.S. COST Value Analysis (VA) programs include:

• Optimizing utilization of current service lines
• Expanding into services with current unfulfilled demand
• Unacceptable initial and/or final denial rates
• Perception of free healthcare at public hospitals
• Inadequate staffing levels
• Inaccurate billing or posting of payments
• Untimely billing and/or appeals
• Incomplete physician documentation
• Internal training needs
• Inadequate equipment or technology
• Clinicians lack of collaboration on revenue issues
• Unnecessary extended lengths of stay
• Subpar patient satisfaction
• Accountability of staff performance

Each hospital has its own unique issues that are opportunities for significant revenue improvement. This list is merely a sample of the advantages that Value Analysis can bring to your own organization.
