In fact, many of these unnecessary administrative costs are associated with fraud, waste, and abuse; no- or low-value-added work; and lack of collaboration between stakeholders. Machine learning and AI have the power to change this––helping to reduce costly, time-consuming manual processes and truly changing the cost-quality curve in healthcare
In this interactive eBook, discover the vision for how AI will transform the front-end, mid and back-end of the revenue cycle.

November 5, 2019
US Hospitals spend $41.3 billion per year on 3.3 million adult 30-day all-cause readmissions. To address the rate of readmissions, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has established value-based care incentives in the form of financial penalties for hospitals and skilled nursing facilities.
This whitepaper discusses factors that increase the risk for readmissions, costs associated with readmissions, and how providers are lowering readmission rates for better value-based care. Learn how hospitals, primary care, and post-acute providers around the country are teaming up to:
Reduce all-cause 30-day readmissions by 78 percent
Improve follow-up and reporting for fewer readmissions and revenue gains of up to 30 percent
Save $1.8 million in care costs through improved transitions of care
Research has demonstrated enhanced technology can improve communication between patients, families and care providers, improve motivation, and has the potential to effect better outcomes and higher levels of patient satisfaction.
