The Key to Achieving Revenue Cycle KPI Excellence
The key foundational element for the highest-level revenue cycles is tracking and benchmarking KPIs. Data tells a story and serves as a vital tool to drive smart work.
We developed our Stoplight Report to effectively track all the industry standard revenue cycle benchmark targets in a visual format. This allows your team to visualize their progress towards their targets and empowers them to positively impact your bottom line!
Our customized program utilizes the “learn by doing” method. By providing guidance and education throughout the development and implementation of your Stoplight Report, your team will have the knowledge and skills needed to optimize this tool, and your revenue cycle, for years to come.

Billing compliance is, without a doubt, one of the highest financial risks to your organization. Anxiety from questioning your compliance level can be eased when you know you are doing everything possible to seek out and mitigate risks.
Our customized Billing Compliance Program is designed to provide your team with education and guidance to research, audit, mitigate, and report the biggest compliance risk items associated with billing. Medicare is actively seeking “false claims” activity, and all payors have beefed up their compliance game. Our program will arm you with the knowledge and tools to prevent, find, and mitigate billing compliance errors.
This is an actionable program that navigates participants through a comprehensive understanding of compliance, as well as guided audits for high compliance risks in billing.
Testimonials
“The ruralMED team had a huge impact on our compliance program! They provided us with the tools and education to know what to audit and what to look for when performing internal audits. We immediately found areas for improvement and increased our visibility to all the complex billing regulations and compliance requirements. Needless to say, I sleep better at night knowing we are doing everything possible to be compliant.”
