Business issue

Prospect Medical grew very quickly from 10 to 17 hospitals and had many different patient accounting systems, billing systems and other vendor software products. To manage the strain of growth, Prospect sought solutions to enhance workflow and analytics, and to consolidate data across the organization.

FinThrive Value

3.6%

Reduced inpatient denial rate from 17.2% to 13.6%

300-500

300-500 fewer denials per month for outpatients

$10M

One facility benefited from $10 million less denied dollars than the previous year

“In the past, if we had three or four out of ten denials that were false positives, the teams would lose focus on prevention efforts as they start assuming they’re going to see false positives that are not actionable. When we can identify real denials with real dollars at risk, there is an imperative and an energy to fix the underlying issues.”
