Over 20 facilities have closed in the past year alone, leaving a healthcare deficient for communities.
Now more than ever, rural hospitals need to be vigilant with every aspect of their business, especially with revenue cycle management.
Even before the pandemic, rural hospitals faced significant financial uncertainty. Relative to urban areas, the roughly 61 million Americans who live in rural areas have a higher rate of poverty, unemployment and are more likely to be uninsured.
Due to longstanding health inequities, rural America tends to have a higher rate of smokers, people who are obese, and people with high blood pressure. The overall rate of drug overdoses in rural areas surpassed metropolitan areas over the last two decades.
Hospitals struggle to find the right Revenue Cycle support. Finding a RCM partner who understands rural hospital challenges should be paramount in your decision making process. The experienced professionals at On-Point have the precise team to help you achieve success with your RCM.
Offering scalable solutions for your specific needs, the owner operated group offers over seventy five years’ experience in revenue cycle management by providing more. More than just promises, On-Point provides tangible solutions by redefining the cycle.
Staffing issues? If feasible and warranted, we can hire qualified RCM staff from your hospital. This provides consistency and needed employment for your team. Recruitment is no longer an issue with On-Point. Our staff fills any voids you may have from not being able to hire or keep employees.
More than 180 rural hospitals have closed since 2005. Closures were already occurring at an accelerated rate over the last decade, and now 21 have shut down since the start of the pandemic. They won’t be the last. Close to half of rural hospitals in the United States are now operating in the “red” or at a loss. Another 453 rural facilities were identified as “vulnerable” to closure.
