Let the Industry Professionals at DuvaSawko Handle the Revenue Cycle Management of Your Emergency Medicine Department

According to a recent survey that assessed what CFOs considered the integral parts of revenue cycle management, the top answers were: claims, payments, collections, registration, denial management, and eligibility and benefits.

The business side of managing an emergency medicine department has seemingly become less focused on patients and more on contending with regulatory requirements, decreases in reimbursements, and trying to alleviate compliance risks.

While many EM departments look at these changes as additional barriers to practice growth, DuvaSawko sees opportunity for these providers to provide better care and grow their business. With our highly customized suite of revenue cycle management solutions created by emergency medicine physicians for emergency medicine physicians, our partners are positioned to win.

The Current State of Healthcare Dollars

According to an article by McKinsey & Company, 15 cents of every dollar spent on healthcare goes towards inefficiencies in revenue cycle management. This is attributed, in part, to the evolution of the Affordable Care Act and corresponding changes in claims processing, payments, collections, and other revenue cycle-related processes.

This all leads to EM departments who try to keep up with these changes in-house while also trying to provide the best care possible. , Conversely, there are EM departments who trust and partner with revenue cycle experts like DuvaSawko who allow them to focus exclusively on patient care and growing their businesses.
