Business Challenges

Heal 360 Primary & Urgent Care aimed to stay ahead of patient needs while delivering a compassionate and holistic approach to medicine. However, they encountered several obstacles in their revenue cycle management (RCM), which created strain across various parts of the practice. Key challenges included:

  • Limited Financial Visibility and Analytics: Heal 360 lacked the financial insights needed to make timely, data-driven decisions. Without regular, clear reports on revenue patterns, denial trends, and cash flow, the clinic couldn’t adequately plan or predict financial performance, hindering proactive business decisions.
  • Delayed Payments and Reduced Revenue: With delayed reimbursements from insurance providers and complex claims processes, revenue generation was slower than expected. This impacted the clinic’s ability to reinvest in resources, which ultimately hindered growth.
  • Increased Administrative Burdens and Staffing Costs: Due to the need for meticulous claims and payment follow-up, Heal 360 staff spent significant time handling administrative tasks, leading to increased staffing costs. Their focus was increasingly split between back-office tasks and patient care, creating a pressure that wasn’t sustainable.
  • Decreased Focus on Patient Care and Satisfaction: The increase in administrative work drew attention away from patient-centered tasks, which impacted patient satisfaction. The team struggled to give patients the seamless, efficient experience that they envisioned, and this imbalance began to impact retention and loyalty.
  • Inefficient Claims Processing and Denial Management: With frequent insurance denials and lengthy appeal processes, Heal 360 encountered a large volume of unresolved claims. These inefficiencies stalled cash flow and led to time-consuming rework by the billing team, pulling them further from their core mission.
