In this case study you’ll discover how AUMC:

  • Increased cash collections from $3.6M annually to $9M in just 12 months
  • Improved patient financial experience by providing accurate cost estimates and setting clear expectations around payments
  • Prevented $1.4M in rework via front-end quality assurance audits and real-time eligibility verification
