Billing Bottlenecks Holding Arkansas Providers Back

Arkansas healthcare practices—whether rural clinics, urban hospitals, or specialty providers—face unique hurdles that impact cash flow and patient satisfaction. Here are the most common challenges we help solve:

  • High Claim Denial Rates: Nationwide, 6–9% of claims are denied on first submission. In Arkansas, Medicaid claim denials are a top cause of delayed revenue.
  • Rising Administrative Costs: Clinics spend an average of $8–$12 per claim when handled in-house, eating into profit margins.
  • Medicaid Complexity: Over 1.2 million Arkansas residents rely on AR Medicaid, but frequent policy updates make compliance a constant struggle.
  • Staff Shortages: Billing and coding staff turnover in healthcare averages 20–30% annually, leading to training gaps and processing delays.
  • Slow Reimbursements: Without proper follow-up, payments can take 30–90 days to arrive, creating cash flow bottlenecks.
  • Patient Collection Difficulties: With rising out-of-pocket costs, many Arkansas providers recover less than 60% of patient balances.
