The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) sets aside $50 billion between 2026 and 2030 to transform rural healthcare through the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) (U.S. Senate Finance Committee, 2025). But here’s the catch: the funds don’t go directly to hospitals — they go to states. That means rural facilities must prove their value and sustainability to state leaders before the money trickles down.
So how can a rural hospital stand out in this competitive landscape? By combining two approaches: advocacy and Effective Intelligence® technology to streamline the revenue cycle.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is forcing RCM executives to change “The way we’ve always done it”. We’ve put together a real-world RCM Survival Guide based on what’s working right now for providers facing the same threats. From reducing bad debt to maximizing staff effectiveness and automating financial clearance, as well as insurance & patient A/R —this is the playbook for navigating what’s next. Access the survival guide now and future-proof your margins.
This webinar presented by Matt Seefeld shows how to activate MedEvolve benchmarks—zero-touch rate, first-touch payment rate, and touches-to-resolution—using advanced, never-before-seen real-time reporting with our Effective Intelligence® Analytics. See exactly how to spot wasted touches and under-performers, process those issues in seconds, and turn those insights into measurable margin gains. If your reporting can’t do this today, you’re already behind.
Effective Intelligence combines Patient Financial Clearance Automation, Medical Billing Workflow Automation, and Real-Time RCM Analytics in a cloud-based platform designed to integration with your current EMR/PM technology to measure the effectiveness of your RCM staff.
Review and assess your practice’s financial status in 5 min or less and know exact where you are losing money and why. Measure the work effort of every revenue cycle employee, incentivize and retain your top performers, and help employees that need improvement.
You can prevent most common denials, rejections and write-offs during the scheduling and pre-registration process in advance of the appointment. Configure checkpoints and use central task management to quickly clear patients and keep your front office staffing needs at a minimum.
As team members log in to the web-based application and record each “touch” of a claim, outcome, and next task, key data points are recorded like who completed the task and when, outcome, task notes, internal / external messages sent, collection success and other data points that feed into our real-time analytics.
Reduce RCM labor dependence with financial clearance, insurance A/R, & patient A/R automation modules with real-time analytics.
Increase productivity and simplify front & back office processes while keeping your staff focused with our flagship PM system.
In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, Matt shares how generative AI and a focus on human accountability can help providers achieve “zero touch” claims, reduce waste, and improve access to care,
