Improved revenue and collections with cost-effective end-to-end RCM for a 650-clinician medical group

About the medical group

This client is one of the largest physician-led and physician-owned medical groups in the country, with more than 650 clinicians across women’s health and primary care. The group is supported by a proven management services organization that helps drive efficiency across its operations.

The cost and consistency challenge in the revenue cycle

Before centralizing with IKS Health, the group’s revenue cycle was constrained by a fragmented, locally run structure.

Centralizing and standardizing end-to-end revenue cycle management

IKS Health, with its RCM solution suite, centralized the group’s billing operations into a single combined business office built on a cost-optimized, variable-cost infrastructure. The model followed a one-term approach that drove seamless integration across the organization while keeping the cost base flexible.

From there, IKS Health standardized workflows and processes across the group’s many practices, each operating as its own limited liability company, with a clear focus on improving collection effectiveness. Proprietary IKS Health technology handled workflow management and monitored key business metrics as work moved through the cycle.

To keep performance improving over time, IKS Health also introduced a proactive monthly evaluation system that surfaced performance gaps early and created a repeatable path to optimization.

The results after centralizing the revenue cycle

By moving to a centralized, standardized model, the group lowered its cost to collect while strengthening collections and cleaning up long-standing receivables, all within a cost structure it could scale.
