How AR Automation Services Increased Revenue for a Healthcare Provider

Transforming AR to Strengthen Financial Performance

For healthcare providers, managing accounts receivable (AR) efficiently is crucial to maintaining a strong revenue cycle and steady cash flow. A mid-sized healthcare provider in the United States was facing significant challenges during their transition to Oracle’s AR system. Manual processes, integration issues, and resource constraints led to delayed collections, increased AR days, and inefficiencies that negatively impacted revenue.

By implementing AR automation services, they streamlined their revenue cycle, resulting in a 32% reduction in AR days and an 8% increase in collection percentage—both of which directly improved their financial performance.

These inefficiencies led to delayed cash inflows, unpredictable revenue cycles, and increased operational costs.

The Solution: Automating the AR Workflow

To overcome these challenges, the provider implemented AR automation services, focusing on three key areas:

✅ Process Standardization:

• Standardized documentation and invoicing processes reduced errors and ensured consistency across all service lines.
• Eliminated discrepancies in billing, improving accuracy and reducing disputes that delayed payments.

✅ Automation & Seamless Integration:

• Automated data extraction from digital remittance advice eliminated manual entry, improving processing speed and accuracy.
• Seamless integration with Oracle’s AR system provided real-time visibility into outstanding payments and cash flow trends.

✅ Dedicated AR Support & Oversight:

• Personalized oversight ensured a smooth transition, addressing specific integration challenges.
• The finance team could shift their focus to revenue optimization and financial planning.

Results: Measurable Revenue Growth & Financial Gains

By automating their AR process, the healthcare provider saw tangible improvements in revenue cycle efficiency:
