Don’t quite have time to listen to the entire episode? No worries. We’ve compiled a couple highlights from Seefeld’s interview for your convenience: • (12:06) “If you can’t measure it, you can’t improve off of it, and if you can’t improve off it, you can’t get the results.” • (31:51) “There are three components to success in revenue cycle: It’s people, it’s processes and it’s technology. And you have to have ways to analyze and measure performance around those areas in close to real time as possible. You get that right, you’re in a much better shape.” Here are some links and reference related to this week’s show: • Healthcare AI market expected to surge from $2.1 to $36.1 billion by 2025 (bit.ly/2ujNhBH) • Insights: Taming and innovating your revenue cycle management model (bit.ly/39b1PlE) • How a 70-physician specialty practice centralized RCM processes – 5 insights (bit.ly/31EE1nF) • Using Artificial Intelligence to Advance Revenue Cycle Management (bit.ly/3bmmNQD) • Why Workflow Automation Works: 4 Benefits of Swapping Spreadsheets For A Streamlined, Data-Driven Approach (bit.ly/2SiqxuN) If you like the show, please rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.
