Send us Fan MailIf you've listened to this podcast for any length of time, you've probably heard me say that running a successful medical practice is a lot like practicing good medicine. You don't make decisions based on a single symptom. You gather data, look for patterns, identify root causes, and then prescribe the appropriate treatment. The same is true when managing the financial health of a medical practice.Today, we're going to talk about two of the most important—and often misunderstood—key performance indicators in revenue cycle management: Gross Collections Percentage and Net Collections Percentage.If you don't know these numbers for your practice, or if you receive them every month but aren't quite sure what they mean, this episode is for you. More importantly, I want to shift your thinking. These aren't just accounting metrics. They're diagnostic tools. They're your practice's financial vital signs. When you understand what they're trying to tell you, they can help you identify problems long before they become financial crises.As we've discussed in previous episodes on key performance indicators and revenue cycle management, no single metric tells the whole story. Days in Accounts Receivable, denial rates, clean claim rates, aging reports, provider productivity, coding accuracy, charge lag, and patient collections all work together. Gross and Net Collections Percentages are two pieces of that larger puzzle, but they're incredibly valuable because they summarize how effectively your entire revenue cycle is functioning.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Every revenue cycle has people who seem to know the things that never made it into the manual. That experience is incredibly valuable, but when a workflow depends on one person knowing the payer, the exception, or the workaround, expertise can quietly become operational risk.

A revenue cycle analysis can help organizations identify where cash is delayed, where A/R is building, and where denials may point to deeper operational or strategic issues.

Revenue cycle doesn't just need more reporting; it needs smarter systems that can prevent problems before they happen.In this episode of Straight Outta Health IT, Jeff Hatfield, Co-Founder and CEO of Four Points Health, talks about how Agentic AI and intelligent automation are reshaping revenue cycle management for hospitals. He explains why denials, write-offs, payer complexity, and manual rework continue to drain financial resources and create unnecessary administrative burden. Drawing from both personal experience and years of working with hospital leaders, Jeff shares why healthcare needs to move beyond retrospective dashboards and toward real-time action.Jeff introduces the Agentic Claims Integrity System (ACIS), built to help hospitals shift from reactive denial management to proactive denial prevention. Rather than simply flagging problems after the fact, ACIS identifies issues upstream, intervenes before claims are submitted, and helps teams reduce avoidable denials and write-offs. He also explains how closed-loop systems can track payer behavior, validate whether fixes worked, and continuously improve performance over time.He also explores the human side of automation, emphasizing that AI should not replace healthcare teams but give them leverage. By reducing repetitive work, improving productivity, and speeding up reimbursement, intelligent automation can help staff focus on higher-value tasks while strengthening hospital financial performance. Hatfield also highlights the importance of making this technology accessible to rural and community hospitals, so AI does not widen existing gaps in healthcare.Tune in to hear how Agentic AI can help hospitals reduce denials, improve cash flow, ease staff burnout, and build a more sustainable future for healthcare operations!ResourcesConnect with Jeff Hatfield on LinkedIn here.Follow Four Points Health on LinkedIn here and visit the website here.

Send us Fan MailIf I walked into your organization today and asked you one simple question — “What is your revenue cycle trying to tell you?” — would you know the answer?Not your collections rate. Not your days in A/R. Not your monthly deposits. I mean the deeper answer. What operational stories are hiding inside your numbers right now?Because most healthcare organizations still think about revenue cycle as a billing department function. Claims go out. Payments come in. Denials get worked. Aging gets reviewed. End of story.But high-performing organizations understand something very different: your revenue cycle is not just billing. It is operational intelligence. It is one of the clearest mirrors of how your organization is actually functioning.Every metric tells a story. Your denial patterns tell stories. Your charge lag tells stories. Your payer behavior tells stories. Your provider coding and undercoding variation tells stories. Your scheduling data tells stories. Even your unapplied credits and unpostables tell stories. And the organizations that thrive financially are usually the organizations that have learned how to listen carefully.So today I want to challenge you to think differently about your revenue cycle. Not as a back-office function. Not as an administrative burden. But as one of the most important diagnostic tools in your entire organization.Because here's the truth: your revenue cycle is talking to you every single day. The question is whether anyone is listening.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

The $50B Rural Health Question In this session, Scott Cook, VP of Business Development at Infinx, unpacks what the Rural Health Transformation Program may mean in practice. The conversation will explore what the funding is designed to accomplish, why each state's approach matters, and how rural healthcare organizations should think about sustainability once the five-year funding period ends. The session will also look at the operational burden behind transformation funding. Rural health teams may be asked to apply for, justify, track, and operationalize funding while already managing workforce shortages, payer pressure, technology gaps, and limited administrative capacity. Scott will help frame the practical questions rural providers should be asking now: What can this funding realistically support? What happens when it goes away? And how can organizations use this moment to strengthen revenue cycle, access, and care delivery instead of simply chasing short-term dollars?
