The term “automation” can refer to any number of automatic processes within the revenue cycle workflows. But, it doesn’t necessarily refer to the use of data science. Just because a process is “automated” doesn’t mean predictive analytics or any data science is applied. However, when you do truly use data science to automate your workflow (which you absolutely should do), you pick up a host of efficiencies and improvements. Our breakdown on automation vs rule-based segmentation vs true predictive analytics.
Every Revenue Cycle Improvement Matters
