American healthcare is extremely complex with many layers of regulation and bureaucracy. From the time a person walks in for a consultation, to the moment when the doctor gets paid for his services, there is an elaborate series of steps that need to be carried out for everything to work out smoothly.
Managing appointments, verifying insurance coverage, documenting the visit, medical coding, and submitting a claim to a payer are the steps of processes that transpire between a scheduled appointment and a doctor getting paid for his services. Needless to say, it is a very long, time-consuming, and laborious process that is also prone to errors. But digitization has alleviated much of the problems that haunt these procedures. Thanks to innovations in healthcare technologies, there are digital solutions from multiple companies for each of the processes mentioned above. However, all of them need to work together seamlessly in order for providers to derive value for their investment in the solutions.
