Reimbursement Integrated Library

Get the essential, up-to-date reimbursement data needed to make informed management decisions.

Available via the Internet

Focusing on key performance indicators for hospital interdepartmental and intradepartmental processes, the Reimbursement Integrated Library provides expert guidance on effective reimbursement strategies while walking you through the systems used by successful organizations.

The Library includes three invaluable titles—Dennis Barry’s Reimbursement Advisor, the Receivables Report and Hospital Accounts Receivable Analysis. The Library features tips for benchmarking your own institution, advice on reducing outstanding A/R and increasing cash flow along with recommendations and action steps for effectively managing change.

Dennis Barry’s Reimbursement Advisor
Issued monthly, Dennis Barry’s Reimbursement Advisor provides all the facts about reimbursement strategies to minimize the adverse effects of DRGs, RBRVs, APCs and capitulation and maximize hospital reimbursement. The Advisor delivers practical, up-to-date information as well as in-depth analyses of key developments in prospective payments, case studies, recommended courses of action, legislative updates, practical management strategies, legal advice and sound financial planning tips.

Receivables Report
Issued monthly, the Receivables Report includes actual profit-improvement examples from facilities nationwide, secrets for successfully challenging denials, tips for using automation to increase cash flow as well as real-world strategies currently being used to prepare for health care reform. It also includes key statistics and survey results to help measure performance and avoid costly mistakes.

Hospital Accounts Receivable Analysis
Issued quarterly, Hospital Accounts Receivable Analysis provides the only tool you’ll need to benchmark your hospital’s financial performance using such criteria as bed size, geographic location and geographic setting. It offers a synopsis of statistical data related to hospital receivables, and each electronic issue contains easy-to-read charts, key ratios, aging reports and billing information. It also offers analysis and forecasting of trends, plus “key questions” relating to those industry trends.

Equally important, the Reimbursement Integrated Library provides links from each publication to CCH’s Medicare and Medicaid Guide as well as CMS Manuals (with the purchase of these two references). Both CCH titles offer expert explanations, coverage of recent developments and primary source documents.
