TAMPA, Fla. - June 20, 2019 - (Newswire.com)
Black Book Market Research LLC’s annual poll of over 1,110 CFOs, financial management and business office solution users evaluating customer satisfaction with enterprise complex claims management vendors revealed that Argos Health had achieved top client experience and product loyalty user scores.
Eighty percent of American hospital CFOs surveyed report in Q2 2019 that the costs of denied claims to their health system have reached three percent or more of their net patient revenue.
Ninety-six percent of health systems leaders surveyed in the Q2 2019 also report they are now in the process of evaluating, acquiring and/or deploying advanced, external complex claims solutions.
“Write-offs have doubled over the last five years and payers’ automated system algorithms are now rejecting, downgrading and placing complex claims in very lengthy medical review processes which the typical healthcare business office is not staffed to handle,” said Doug Brown, president of Black Book Research, the study authors. “With the average hospital margin thinning to less than two percent, the need for higher net revenue, improved cash flow and reduced time in accounts receivable is critical to some organizations' survival in 2020.”
