Case Study: Summit Pacific Medical Center boosts clinic volumes and reimbursement with MEDITECH Business and Clinical Analytics

Summit Pacific Increases Reimbursement, Clinic Volumes with MEDITECH’s Analytics Solution

Summit Pacific Medical Center, a Critical Access Hospital in Elma, Washington, needed a better way to improve clinic efficiency, increase patient volumes, and prepare for the opening of a new wellness center. With fragmented systems making it difficult to analyze organization-wide data, the organization turned to MEDITECH’s Business and Clinical Analytics solution to gain clearer insight into operations and performance.

Using MEDITECH’s integrated Business and Clinical Analytics, Summit Pacific introduced dashboards and self-service reporting to improve scheduling, track provider productivity, enforce patient policies, and speed chart closure and coding. The results included an 8% increase in daily clinic volumes, a 70% reduction in time between chart closures, a 13-day reduction in A/R days, a 1.6% decrease in no-show rates, and about $1,000 saved per report request through in-house reporting.
