In today’s reimbursement environment, it is critical that medical groups and health care organizations employ risk management best practices to optimize revenue.  Our risk management philosophy is driven by two principles:

Uncertainty: Health care reform’s impact on risk is yet to be determined.

Complexity: Health care’s increased confusion creates risk.

Manage risk in a volatile environment

Health care reimbursement models are changing rapidly.  Increasingly, patients are financially responsible for services.

Navigate the uncertainty of health care reform

Health care reform creates revenue risk with increased uncertainty and complexity affecting health care organizations.

Reimbursement cuts will affect staffing and medical outcomes.

Electronic health records should improve patient care and efficiency but may adversely affect short to intermediate cash flow.
