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?

Todd Van Meter, CEO of Accuity, highlights the evolution of the revenue cycle from simple billing and coding to include data analytics to reduce friction and prevent revenue leakage.  Accuity specializes in reviewing inpatient accounts before billing, using a combination of AI and physicians to ensure claims are compliant and accurate. Getting the clinical analysis and coding correct initially significantly reduces costly, time-consuming clinical denials.  Todd explains, Revenue cycle is a term that's really become more relevant here, in the last maybe decade plus. Years ago, it used to be called billing and coding and a whole different bunch of terms. And really, it's this whole idea of how, when a patient's going through their care event, how are you tracking them from when they access care all the way through documenting their care to coding the care they received and then getting a bill out to an insurance company or to a patient to get reimbursed for the care they received. And so the transformation has been going on for a long time."   "The cost has been pretty well identified over the years. From a cost perspective, the goal is to perform all of this work as cost-effectively as possible, and faster is better for patients and for hospitals in terms of processing accounts, cash flow, and other financial metrics. So I think what I've seen happening for health systems is that the data is allowing for better visibility, back to your cost point, into where there are opportunities to take out friction, to do things better, faster, cheaper, to process accounts. And to take care of patients better, and communicate better to both patients and insurance companies, and internally, just from a tracking perspective, and to make sure, to your other point, that there's really not any leakage all along the way." #Accuity #Healthcare #RevenueCycleManagement #RCM #Hospitals #InpatientCare #MedicalAI #HumanintheLoop accuityhealthcare.com Download the transcript here

At last, the secrets of healthcare technology will be revealed during a fresh new two-part series, especially written for the accomplished healthcare professional who wants a refresher course on the latest developments that are quickly enveloping healthcare.Coders, clinical documentation integrity specialists (CDISs), and Revenue Cycle professionals who comprise the Talk Ten Tuesday (TTT) audience and who live inside the chart and the queue, are expected to benefit from an eye level rather than at the strategy level approach from senior healthcare analyst Frank Cohen, a renowned computer scientist and respected Monitor Monday panelist.Other well-known subject-matter experts will also join the broadcast with more news to report, including the following:• IPPS Proposed Rule: George Kelly, President of KA Consulting Division at Panacea Healthcare Solutions, will provide an overview of the 2027 IPPSS Proposed Rule during a presentation on May 28.• POV: Penny Jefferson, Manager of Coding & Clinical Documentation Integrity Services for the University of California-Davis Medical Center, will share her point of view during the broadcast.• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson will provide an update on all things CDI.• SDoH Report: Tiffany Ferguson will report on news happening at the intersection of compliance and medical record coding.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger will report on the latest coding news.

Across the industry, leaders are talking about a “battle of the bots”—with payers and providers racing to deploy AI across the revenue cycle. But that narrative may be more hype than reality. In this episode, Rae Woods is joined by Advisory Board experts Isis Monteiro and Elysia Culver to separate fact from fiction. They break down where AI is actually delivering value today—and why it's showing up as efficiency gains and cost avoidance, not revenue growth. And they make the case for a different approach: stop chasing AI for its own sake, and start focusing on margin protection, operational discipline, and the problems that actually need solving.

Stuart Newsome is joined by Lindsey Nelson, Gretchen Manica, Jeremie Gluckman, and Viveka Jagadeesan for a practical discussion about the subtle but important ways AI is changing everyday work, how that shift mirrors the same staffing and efficiency pressures healthcare organizations face, and what revenue cycle leaders should consider as they adopt AI without losing sight of governance, context, and outcomes. That framing is consistent with the brainstorm's emphasis on the “ordinary user” becoming more of a contributor, the need for human-in-the-loop oversight, and the importance of tying the conversation back to real RCM pressures rather than generic AI hype.

In this episode of Home Health Revealed, we sit down with Alexander Shekaroff from Fin Health, Inc. to explore the emerging concept of profit cycle management—and how it builds on traditional revenue cycle strategies in home health and hospice. While revenue cycle management focuses on cash flow and collections, this conversation dives deeper into what truly drives financial performance: margins, EBITDA, and operational efficiency. Alexander shares how agencies can uncover hidden “margin leaks,” improve financial visibility, and make faster, more confident decisions by connecting data across EMR, accounting, and workforce systems. We also discuss how many organizations can achieve meaningful EBITDA improvement without major structural changes—simply by making small, informed adjustments across departments. With increasing pressure from payers and a rapidly evolving market, having timely, accurate financial insights is no longer optional. Whether your agency is focused on growth, stability, or preparing for future opportunities, this episode highlights how aligning revenue cycle with profitability can create a stronger, more sustainable financial foundation.
