2:30 – 3:30 Improving Revenue Cycle Outcomes: Harnessing the Power of Process Analytics and Automated Workflow

Sara Emery and Kimberly Scaccia

KPMG

Taking data and learning what's next!  Here's an opportunity to hear about automated business process modeling:  Not just solving a single problem, but knowing how to effectuate long term change within the revenue cycle.

Recently organizations have turned their attention toward improving revenue cycle processes and activities in an effort to increase efficiency, reduce costs and – ultimately – shore-up sagging margins. While some improvements have been made industry-wide, few organizations have taken full advantage of the opportunities to achieve significant results from their efforts.

By incorporating business process management (BPM) and a process analytics approach, organizations can start to understand not only where the anomalies are in their processes, but also identify the root causes of those anomalies. Knowing your organization has a problem is great; but knowing how to resolve that problem and reduce process cycle time is best. With automated BPM, it’s not just about solving a single problem, but rather seeing how the problem manifests and interrelates across the entire revenue cycle ecosystem which, in turn, can lead to opportunities to drastically reduce local optimization within the revenue cycle.

As chief spokesman and lobbyist for the profession, Paul met with leaders from both parties on the issue of reform. He has appeared before both the House and Senate and has appeared on most television programs educating the public on the issue of lobbying and proposed changes to the Lobbying Disclosure Act. He has been a tireless champion in the fight to protect every citizen’s right to petition their government through lobbying activities. He has appeared on NBC Nightly News, ABC News, C-Span, CNN, MSNBC, The News Hour with Jim Lehr, and Lou Dobbs discussing ethics and transparency issues.
In addition to his professional life, Paul believes that giving back to the community is an important part of any business.
