While we've heard a lot about the impact of the Change Healthcare breach, the go-forward implications for rev cycle leaders have been less clear. Jacqueline LaPointe of RevCycleIntelligence recently spoke with Andrew Lockhart, CEO of Fathom, about how providers and RCM vendors are reassessing and strengthening their approach to security and outsourcing. Here's part of the perspective shared: “Medical coding, specifically, is something that people are having a lot of difficulty staffing, so many providers are going to need a third party … However, an AI solution may be much more secure than looking at offshore vendors. AI gives you a closed system in which not a lot of people are touching [your data], which we all know creates opportunities for mistakes and security lapses."

Nearly 75% of healthcare workers struggle with the demands of completing clinical documentation. According to a recent Healthcare Dive report from Emily Olsen, the burden of documentation not only contributes to clinician stress but also takes away from time for patient care. What can health systems do to alleviate this stress? One compelling approach we increasingly see: Adopting integrated, end-to-end strategies for AI in RCM, such as combining ambient documentation and autonomous coding. Leading tech companies and startups have developed generative AI tools that automate note-taking. Forward-thinking leaders are implementing these tools alongside autonomous coding to create end-to-end solutions that significantly reduce administrative load and improve coding and billing accuracy. How is your system planning for end-to-end strategies like this to improve clinician experience?

That's a wrap 🪩. Safe travels to everyone heading back from Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) Annual today! The Fathom team had a fantastic time deepening connections with the RCM community. A huge thank-you to everyone who attended our panel, "AI, Meet ROI: Lessons Learned from Autonomous Coding Early Adopters" – and special thanks to our panelists, Amy Katnik, COO of ApolloMD, and Nick Rogers, VP Revenue Cycle at Amazon Health Services (One Medical). We'll share a detailed recap soon, but their discussion covered: ⭐The case for change: Why provider organizations are choosing true autonomous coding over CAC and manual coding for emergency medicine, hospitalist medicine, primary care, and other specialties. ⭐The key to ROI: Why high automation rates (90%+) and accuracy rates are essential for delivering the impact that revenue cycle leaders and CFOs need. ⭐The clinician perspective: How improving coding accuracy and turnarounds and relieving administrative burdens play a major role in boosting the clinician experience. And thanks to everyone who chose to kick off ANI with us on Monday at our Barbershop party, in partnership with our friends at Turquoise Health.
