Case Studies

The following are some examples of how RTI has helped its clients achieve their optimal performance through our services and reporting:

• For a large metropolitan hospital in the Northeast, RTI was able to increase annual revenue by $800,000 by implementing our chart accountability system and ensuring that all proper procedures were coded for billing.
   
• For a mid-sized rural hospital in the Southeast, RTI helped to increase the annual cash receipts by over $400,000, primarily by improving physician documentation and ensuring the proper coding of all procedures.
   
• For a large hospital system in the Southeast, RTI was able to increase cash receipts by more than $1 million due to our billing process and extensive A/R follow-up capabilities. RTI’s payor denial tracking allowed us to work with patterns of denial from managed care carriers, further enhancing revenue recovery.
   
• A Florida hospital had annual facility coding charges of $1,717,632. RTI’s feasibility study indicated that, with more compliant coding for services performed, the hospital could increase these charges by 37%, to $2,358,656. Once RTI began to manage the hospital’s billing and coding, its facility coding charges increased a full 47%, to $2,518,784.
