Webinar: Half-day LOS Drop – How this 270-Bed Acute Care Hospital Did It, October 9         

Reducing length of stay isn’t easy, especially when discharge planning is hampered by delayed processes, limited visibility to estimated discharge dates (EDDs) and growing capacity strain. That was the case at Mobile, Ala.-based Springhill Medical Center – until a focused, cross-functional effort began driving change.

In just two months, Springhill implemented new workflows and AI-powered tools that delivered measurable results across the board.

In this live session, Sharon Barnicle, executive director of revenue cycle, shares how the hospital built a more predictive, accountable discharge process – one that reduced average length of stay by 12 hours, cut discharge processing times in half and helped reach 90% compliance with EDDs.

You’ll Learn How Springhill:

  • Used AI to proactively plan discharges based on capacity needs,
  • Standardized communication across nursing, case management and administration,
  • Surfaced discharge barriers early with real-time alerts and watchlists, and
  • Built daily accountability tied to LOS and EDD goals.

Webinar: Payer Collections Unlocked: 3 Keys to Drive Collections Through Improved AR for ASCs, October 2             

Ambulatory Surgery Centers face unique revenue cycle challenges – from implant-heavy procedures to payer-specific contract rules and front-end requirements that, if missed, quickly turn into denials and revenue leakage.

You’ll learn how to master the payer contract landscape, strengthen front-end and pre-authorization processes, and ensure compliance with payer policies – practical steps that help your ASC capture the revenue it has earned, protect cash flow, and maximize cash per case.

Participants will gain real-world insight into:

  • Mastering the payer contract landscape
    • Integrate contract terms into systems,
    • Prevent inflated AR, and
    • Address implant and Medicare Advantage complexities
  • Strengthening front-end and preauthorization processes
    • Implement workflows that reduce denials,
    • Improve AR accuracy, and
    • Confirm benefits and authorization requirements up front
  • Ensuring compliance with payer policies and coding accuracy
    • Align documentation and coding with payer guidelines,
    • Medical necessity rules, and
    • Frequency limits to safeguard revenue

This report shows why leading systems are rethinking the model with centralized monitoring units (CMUs) that scale across hospitals and support smarter staffing.

Key Takeaways include:

  • The CMU model to reduce excess telemetry systemwide by 10%,
  • How to save 8 hours/day with technology, and
  • Health First’s approach to buying new technology and creating savings.
