Striking the right balance with collections

 

By John K. Wisniewski

BCMS CEO/Executive Director

  

This would be a good week to evaluate your patient collection policies, particularly internal processes, outsourcing or factoring arrangements, write-offs and tax implications.

 

It's costly to collect and costly to give up -- be sure you have struck the right balance for your practice.
