“ One of the biggest benefits of MedeFinance is their cost effective and IT-friendly approach for improving the manageability of internal data in a way that significantly improves operational decision-making,” stated Kelly Turner, Chief Financial Officer for Glendale Adventist. “Their revenue cycle and self-pay analytics applications will help us speed up our revenue cycle and make more timely business decisions for our organization.”

Glendale Adventist is an early adopter of MedeFinance's new Self-Pay Analytics application, which categorizes patient accounts based on multiple dimensions such as risk, income, and household size to best identify likelihood of patient payment, charity care eligibility, demographic errors, and potential fraud in advance of accounts being written off to bad debt. The solution will help Glendale identify low income patients to ensure they receive appropriate financial assistance according to hospital Charity Care policies.

“We provide healthcare professionals with the business intelligence, technology, and customized services they need to be more efficient,” stated Jim Quist, MedeFinance Chairman and CEO. “Our software-as-service technology platform provides flexibility at a cost that can be supported by hospital budgets of all sizes.”
