The goal in reimbursing providers is to provide affordable care for patients while encouraging quality care through best care practices and cutting down the time required for physicians to receive their payments.  These delays only drive up the cost of healthcare, while streamlining payment methods serve to benefit all involved.  Unfortunately, until now, electronic payments, the fastest form of payments, has been the missing component in the provider payments process.

Healthcare providers from hospitals and medical practices, to workers compensation managers and even government benefit coordinators, are under extreme pressure to reduce operating costs while expanding services and maintaining superior levels of care. In response, their financial managers have an opportunity to play a vital role in promoting efficiency and cost cutting through the innovative management of payments.

A recent report sponsored by GHX found the majority of large healthcare suppliers distribute 20% or more of their invoices by paper and more than three-quarters of respondents (78 percent) say that fewer than half of the invoices they deliver are paid electronically. 83 percent of respondents confirm that their companies would realize “meaningful financial benefit” if they were to receive more payment electronically.

Managing all that paper requires hours of manual intervention and leads to inefficiency and higher processing costs. Often providers receive a check that holds payments for multiple processes. They depend on a through EOB to be provided so that they can determine which payments are for which claims – a process that takes even more time and manpower. Reconciling payments like this show why this process can often take weeks to complete. Time is money and this added time only adds to the overall cost of healthcare.
