Measuring number of claims worked or measuring work effort & successful outcomes? What should healthcare executives focus on with RCM labor?

Give your RCM staff work/life balance by measuring effectiveness not productivity, establishing clear goals & incentivizing top performers, and tie it to a reward system that creates the recognition that this new generation of the workforce needs to have.
