What’s included in R1 Early Out?
We provide quality at scale through coordinated patient collection efforts, which leads to sustainable results. Our customers continue to see an increase in self-pay payments and a decrease in cost-to-collect.
Speak with an expert
We offer robust early out collections, including inbound customer service, proactive outbound outreach, and patient portal messaging. We also leverage dialers and IVR interfaces to engage patients and enable them to get their account resolved quickly.
As the cornerstone of our patient collection strategy, our team leverages predictive scoring to identify charity candidates, segment AR and more. In addition, robust analytics drives ongoing performance management and actionable insights.
We ensure accounts are handled efficiently and appropriately from day one. Our team performs automatic scans for bankruptcy, address changes, and more, while identifying candidates for presumptive charity and those that need to be re-billed to insurance.
