Median supply costs per full-time employee for physician-owned, multispecialty groups increased by 82%¹ between 2013-2022. High turnover rates are straining resources at every point in the healthcare continuum.

The U.S. healthcare system is also at the forefront of technological advancements, incorporating novel solutions to improve patient care and treatment outcomes.

Some of these technologies are specifically designed to improve and support the revenue cycle. Best-in-class solutions are enabling providers to capture every available dollar from patient encounters, helping strained healthcare organizations continue to serve their communities with quality care.
