HSC Management Case Studies
View the case studies of previous solutions created and enacted by HSC Management for private medical practices of all sizes
A primary care practice experienced reimbursement issues with a capitated health plan contract.
An analysis of collections from the capitated contract showed the health plan was violating the Correct Coding Initiative by recoding E & M visits at a low level, ignoring the services actually provided and coded by the physician. Changes were made that benefited the practice.
A single specialty practice considered joining a PHO to increase market share.
An analysis of the pros and cons of the PHO proposal identified the risk, cost, and potential financial benefits to the revenue cycle.
A single specialty practice developed an ASC to increase profitability and independence.
A financial feasibility study paved the way to syndicate a number of physicians in the ownership of the ASC. Turn-key services including design and construction management brought this project in on time and under budget.
A large specialty practice with employed physician retention issues changed their cost sharing and bonus methodology and significantly increased profitability.
The bonus structure was changed to equitably apportion fixed and variable costs and link productivity to bonus. An Equity Partner system was implemented which addressed the financial and management interests of all concerned.
An existing specialty practice learned how to improve their revenue cycle and increase profitability.
This case study shows a practice was experiencing a high patient volume but low collections. A revamping of their revenue cycle practices resulted in higher collections, a marked decrease in accounts receivable, and significantly increased profitability.
