How Staffingly Inc Helped a Clinic Fix Its Revenue Cycle Management Problems A Case Study?

Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) is the financial backbone of any hospital or clinic. From scheduling appointments to receiving payments, a smooth RCM process ensures sustainable cash flow and allows healthcare providers to focus on what matters most patient care.

But for many small to mid-sized clinics, RCM can be a persistent challenge. One such clinic in Texas faced major setbacks until they partnered with Staffingly Inc. Here’s how that collaboration helped turn things around.

The Challenge: High Claim Denials & Delayed Payments

A mid-sized multi-specialty clinic in Texas was experiencing critical RCM issues:

• 35%+ of insurance claims were denied every month

• Frequent errors in coding and insurance verification

• Payments were delayed by 60 to 90 days

• In-house staff lacked adequate RCM training

• Cash flow stagnation impacted payroll and daily operations

We were spending so much time fixing billing mistakes that we couldn’t focus on patient care,” said the clinic’s owner.

Root Causes: What Went Wrong?

Upon assessment, Staffingly identified the key problems:

1. No system for pre-treatment insurance eligibility checks

2. Inaccurate or incomplete coding in submitted claims

3. Understaffed billing department unable to handle volume

4. Lack of follow-up on denied or aging claims

The Turnaround: Staffingly Inc. Steps In

To resolve these issues, the clinic partnered with Staffingly Inc., a trusted leader in healthcare RCM outsourcing. Here’s how the Staffingly team made a difference:

 1. Deployment of Trained Billing Experts

Staffingly assigned a remote team of certified billing and coding specialists to:

• Submit claims accurately and on time

The team verified every patient’s insurance coverage before the visit, minimizing claim rejections due to outdated or invalid insurance data.

 3. Swift Claim Follow-Ups & Appeals

The Results: 3 Months Later

The improvements were dramatic and fast.
