WHY THIS MATTERS

The forces bleeding provider margins

Hospitals face a perfect storm. Rising denials, staffing shortages, and billing complexity are squeezing margins and consuming administrative cycles —leaving less time for care.
Denial $ Drain
Denial $ Drain

~14%

The average denied inpatient and outpatient claim amounts rose 12% and 14% respectively YoY, placing revenue resolution burdens on providers.
Denials Overturned
Denials Overturned

$18B

Nearly $18B was spent by hospitals to overturn denied claims alone. AHA estimates that $43B was spent to collect what health plans owed.
Front Door Failures
Front Door Failures

68%

Provider survey respondents report inaccurate or incomplete patient data at intake is a leading driver of denials, and the administrative burden lands squarely on providers.
Tech Debt

56%

Only 56% of providers say their current claims technology actually meets revenue cycle demands, which is a stark gap between AI's promise and its delivery.
Rising Costs
Rising Costs

7.5%

Hospital expenses have grown 7.5% in 2025, and the pressure to keep care affordable and accessible is becoming harder by the month.
PROVEN OUTCOMES

Our results hold true across every engagement

Our outcomes come from live operations and active client engagements, not projections. They hold because our Transform-Implement-Operate model is built for exactly these pressures.

<4.8%

denial rate

For a top radiology billing company, our AI-enabled denial engine held rates to below 4.8%, while maintaining coding denials below 2%.

+44%

cash collections

In a long-term provider collections engagement, recovery improved 44% over baseline, with days in open receivables held below 45 days

40%

reduced denials

AI-powered process transformation for a critical access community hospital reduced documentation and COB denials by 40%.

~35%

reduction

Across our provider portfolio, our end-to-end revenue lifecycle transformation efforts saw 30%-35% reduction in uncompensated care.
Revenue LIfecycle Solutions

End to end revenue cycle management solutions

The Firstsource Revenue Command Center delivers end-to-end optimization—patient access through A/R, denials and collections. Deep revenue cycle expertise combined with AI automation. Centralized intelligence. Real-time visibility. Performance-guaranteed outcomes.

Prevent denials at the front door

Prevent denials before the first claim is submitted. Eight integrated modules — from scheduling and eligibility to prior auth, registration, and pre-service collections — unified by a shared patient access intelligence layer. 

Every code right. Every dollar captured.

Five integrated modules - medical coding, CDI, charge capture, compliance audit, and computer-assisted coding built on a shared coding accuracy engine, delivering accuracy across millions of charts with autonomous agents and copilots.

Recovery that shows up on your balance sheets

Insurance A/R follow-up, denials management and appeals, self-pay early out, bad debt recovery, credit balance resolution, transfer DRG recovery, and payer underpayment recovery are connected through a shared propensity intelligence layer.
CLIENT SPOTLIGHT

Fewer denials. More revenue. Proven at scale.

Integrated denial prevention, analytics, and intelligent workflows drive results.
A critical access hospital system with multiple hospitals and hundreds of provider locations was experiencing a high initial denial rate, with contract-related issues driving almost ~90% of those denials. We deployed our AI-powered predictive engines and intelligent business rules. Within a short period, denials were reduced, and coordination of benefits and documentation denials fell by 40%
Fewer denials. More revenue. Proven at scale.

WHO WE SERVE

Built for every provider

Three distinct delivery models serving health systems, physician and specialty practices, and aggregators, each with its own operating approach and revenue cycle priorities.
Hospitals and health systems

Hospitals and health systems

Hospitals and health systems need scale, consistency, and operational rigor across front, mid, and back, with onshore staffing, Medicaid eligibility at the bedside, ER financial clearance, and denial management built for acute care environments. We partner to re-imagine the process, end-to-end, or in parts to improve revenue and margins.
Physician and specialty practices

Physician and specialty practices

Every specialty and physician office bills differently, balancing patient experience with administrative burden. We share the load with right-shoring, coding-led revenue cycle management for multi-specialty groups, IPAs, behavioral health, radiology, ASCs, and DME/HME providers, from charge capture through collections.
Billing and platform companies

+$1M

recovery added

A healthcare provider partnered with us to recover near-daily revenue across physician practices — through specialist-aligned billing, denial prevention, and structured appeals.

85%

coded in 48 hours

A radiology company leveraged us to ensure that 85% of all charts were coded and billed within 48 hours of receipt, while maintaining 99% first-pass ratio.

One health system transformed a reactive, resource-constrained denials function into a proactive, data-driven operation, using clinical SME review, AI-powered automation, and real-time analytics.
WHY FIRSTSOURCE WINS

What teams try. What actually works.

A direct comparison from the revenue cycle operations seat : six patterns that repeat, and what changes when the Revenue Command Center operates instead.
WHAT TEAMS TRY
WHY IT FAILS
WHAT CHANGES WITH FIRSTSOURCE

Add a point solution per problem

40+ RCM vendors per health system creates siloed data, diffused accountability, and no shared root cause analysis.

We have a shared analytics layer with single-point outcome accountability and contractual performance guarantees.

Manually appeal denied claims

Average manual appeal preparation takes 45 minutes. 65% of appeals are missing key documentation. Health plans' AI denies in seconds.

Agentic automation compresses appeal preparation with a higher than industry appeal success rate and denial overturn rates.

Rely on in-house coding teams

High annual coder turnover disrupts production. Manual coding introduces accuracy gaps that translate directly into coding denials and compliance exposure

Our autonomous coding delivers 95%+ accuracy across 30M+ charts annually.85% coded within 48 hours, coding denials sustained below 2%.

TRUST & COMPLIANCE

Built inside the rules

We operate within every regulatory framework our clients face: not around it, not despite it.
