A Claims Management and RCM Paradigm Shift
Unlike traditional RCM solutions, LigoLab starts the revenue cycle process as soon as the laboratory receives the order. That is when the automatic demographic and financial verification functions prevent rejections and denials and are integrated into the lab’s real-time queue-facilitated workflow. This verification component is then shared by the LIS & RCM without the need for synchronization.
Laboratory RCM has traditionally been viewed as a “backend” process rather than one that starts on the front end. This outdated view is changing because vital and accurate information needed for successful billing activities can now be interwoven throughout the LigoLab LIS workflow.

Overcoming an Industry RCM Challenge
Across the United States, an estimated 35 percent of claim denials are caused by inaccurate or missing data, and manual processing of claims is both labor and time-intensive.
Standalone RCM systems that are interfaced with LIS platforms but not fully integrated greatly contribute to this high denial rate. Inconsistent data and a lack of transparency and synchronization are the typical outcomes of such systems. When LIS & RCM functions operate within separate silos, even if interfaced, the full capabilities of each cannot be obtained and the laboratory struggles. Only when LIS & RCM functionalities are fully integrated on a shared platform can the consistent quality of laboratory data and processes be ensured.
Integration, Automation and Operational Efficiency = Real Results with LigoLab
Many of our client laboratories reported major growth in total revenue. One lab, in particular, enjoyed 31 percent growth in year-over-year total revenue when comparing the LigoLab LIS & RCM with its old legacy/stand-alone RCM system. That same laboratory also reported big gains across the board, with patient billing up 30 percent, client billing up 45 percent, and payer billing up 27 percent year-over-year, all without the need to add additional staff.
