The uninsured and underinsured are reaching all time highs; hospitals can no longer depend solely on the collection agencies to reduce these receivable dollars. Much of the Self Pay receivable represents the rising cost of deductibles, co-insurances and co-pays. The patient out of pocket expenses also continues to be taxed by the growing number of limited coverage by the insurance plans. These factors make the collection of the Self Pay receivable difficult to collect not to mention the invested manpower needed for to facilitate the process. Other factors that impact the collection of these receivable dollars are return mail, correspondence from patients and the insurance company, increased incoming phone calls and walk-ins.
