Running a successful gastroenterology practice involves a delicate balance. While you focus on delivering exceptional patient care, the intricate complexities of billing and coding can become a source of frustration. Lost revenue, administrative burdens, and the constant challenge of staying compliant with regulations can hinder your practice’s growth and impact your commitment to patient well-being. 

Compounding these challenges is a nationwide shortage of medical coders, reaching a staggering 30% according to the American Medical Association. This shortage is fueled by factors such as the growing demand for coders as healthcare organizations expand, an aging workforce, and the difficulty in filling specialty positions like cardiology. 

Introducing Coronis Health: Your trusted partner in navigating the complexities of healthcare revenue cycle management (RCM) and empowering your gastroenterology practice to reach new heights. We offer specialized outsourced billing and coding support designed to overcome the unique challenges you face, including the current staffing shortage. 

In addition to the staffing challenge, the healthcare landscape is rife with complexities and inefficiencies. Consider this: 

• A pre-pandemic survey by the American Hospital Association (AHA) revealed that 89% of hospitals and health systems experienced a concerning uptick in claim denials over the preceding three years. This surge poses a formidable challenge to healthcare providers, necessitating a strategic approach to mitigate financial losses. 
• Inefficiencies in claims processing contribute significantly to the squandering of healthcare dollars. Data from Humana estimates a staggering $265 billion (about $820 per person in the US) in wastage in 2019. Streamlined and effective revenue cycle management practices are imperative for gastroenterology practices to optimize claims processing workflows. 
• The Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare (CAQH) highlights the challenge of manual processing, with the average time required for processing a single claim being approximately four minutes. Coronis Health addresses this challenge with advanced technological solutions, automating and streamlining workflows for more efficient and error-free revenue cycle management. 

These statistics illustrate the challenges faced by healthcare providers today.
