Healthcare organizations are under increasing pressure to streamline operations without compromising the quality of patient care. Inefficient processes and outdated patient communication strategies, while just one piece of the revenue puzzle, could be costing more than you realize—both in resources and financial performance. The real question isn’t whether there’s room for improvement, but how much untapped potential your organization is leaving behind.
Artera’s Value Calculator provides health system leaders with a comprehensive tool to quantify their potential return on investment for an updated patient communication platform. This powerful calculator transforms abstract possibilities into concrete financial projections, enabling data-driven decisions that can reshape your organization’s financial performance.
Understanding the True Cost of Poor Patient Communication
Before exploring the calculator’s capabilities, consider the hidden costs within your current patient communication processes. Manual billing procedures consume valuable staff hours that could be redirected to patient care. Denied claims create administrative bottlenecks that extend accounts receivable periods. Poor patient communication practices lead to missed appointments and delayed payments, directly impacting cash flow.
The ripple effects extend beyond immediate financial losses. Staff burnout increases when teams spend excessive time on repetitive tasks. Patient satisfaction declines when communication gaps create confusion about billing and appointment scheduling. These compounding issues create a cycle that becomes increasingly difficult to break without systematic intervention.
How Artera’s Value Calculator Works
Artera’s Value Calculator examines your organization’s current performance across multiple operational areas. By inputting basic metrics about your appointment volume, no-show rate, estimated administrative and clinical staff time spent communicating with patients, and more, the calculator generates personalized projections showing potential improvements across key performance indicators.
The calculator evaluates several critical areas:
Operational Efficiency Gains: By examining your current staffing allocation and process workflows, the calculator determines how automation can reduce manual tasks and reallocate human resources to higher-value activities.
Patient Engagement Improvements: The calculator projects how enhanced communication strategies can reduce no-show rates, improve appointment adherence, and increase patient satisfaction scores.
Cost Reduction Opportunities: Beyond revenue increases, the calculator identifies areas where operational costs can be reduced through process automation and improved workflow efficiency.
Individuals will receive an individualized report with all the estimated value from Artera in terms of cost savings, operational efficiencies and projected impact to your bottom line.
Quantifying Patient Experience Improvements
Artera’s Value Calculator also projects improvements in patient experience metrics that indirectly impact financial performance. Enhanced communication strategies lead to better patient satisfaction scores, which correlate with improved patient retention and positive reputation management.
Improved Health Outcomes: Enhanced patient engagement leads to better adherence to treatment plans and follow-up appointments.
Increased Patient Acquisition: Artera enables health systems to send targeted campaigns to specific patient groups, facilitating both patient retention and acquisition. For example, Community Health Centers of the Central Coast leveraged Artera to secure 20,000 appointments from newly recruited patients in one year,
Faster Check-in Processes: Organizations achieve up to 85% reduction in patient check-in times through automated eligibility verification and pre-visit communication. This improvement reduces waiting room congestion and improves the overall patient experience while enabling staff to serve more patients efficiently.
Cost Transparency Benefits: Providing patients with upfront cost estimates and transparent billing information reduces confusion and improves payment compliance. This transparency prevents patients from seeking alternative providers due to billing concerns and maintains strong patient-provider relationships.
