echobot - Integrated Revenue Cycle Process Automation Platform

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Every business process in the healthcare revenue cycle chain – from medical billing and coding to accounts receivables - presents process automation opportunities. For Healthcare providers to keep their costs-to-collect low, they must move from high-touch manual processes to digital operations by leveraging new-generation robotic process automation capabilities.

As revenue cycle processes need to be addressed in an integrated manner rather than at an individual process level, there is a need to move to an automation platform that improves productivity and overall business outcomes.

The Challenges

echobot integrated revenue cycle automation platform
  • With the growing automation needs of our customers and the organization, Access Healthcare wanted an integrated and intelligent platform to support a comprehensive array of bots.

  • Every new process-specific bot follows the entire life-cycle - from development to deployment, which is time and effort intensive.

  • Multiple bots (process-specific), but not working in unison

  • Lack of scalability and flexibility to meet future requirements

The Solution

  • echobot includes an extensive array of micro-bots to enable automation of the entire process cycle

  • Subject Matter Experts (not IT team members) can configure these bots to work effectively

  • A feature-rich design studio (single view) provides quick access to variables, arguments, and import facility

  • Concurrently running bots – 100s of bots running on one machine – gives you significant infrastructure cost savings.

  • A comprehensive deployment framework including opportunity, rapid configuration by SMEs, deployment, and development

The Results

  • Quick configuration by utilizing a rich library of pre-built automation bots

  • Ease of designing new process scenarios for automation using the design studio

  • A comprehensive monitoring solution that enables active management of bots, with built-in alerts

  • Tight coupling with underlying workflow and knowledge management systems to improve monitoring of quality while ensuring process effectiveness
