title: Speeding the receivables pipeline: a new approach.
abstract: The decade of the '80s saw a dramatic nationwide increase in healthcare receivables. External factors including a tougher regulatory environment and tighter internal budgets augmented this rise. Hospitals that have been successful at managing their receivables have done so through a variety of both operational and system improvements including Receivables Performance Management and a performance accountability reporting system (PARS).
