title: The value of consulting in revenue cycle transformations: an analysis.
abstract: The most often cited benefits of revenue cycle consulting engagements are improved cash receipts and reduced A/R days, both cited by 61 percent of study respondents. Most providers expressed confidence in their ability to sustain the initial realized benefits. A key disadvantage cited was that such highly visible and politically charged engagements require focused management time and attention that may be difficult to sustain.
