Executive Summary

The argument, in one page.

Key Figures

  • 12%
    average revenue lost to denials + slow AR (typical solo practice)
  • 2 hrs/day
    physician time lost to documentation
The Argument

US healthcare practices don't lose revenue to bad medicine. They lose it to denied claims, slow AR, and physician burnout from documentation.

Solo practitioners to multi-location hospital networks lose 30-40% of operational hours to documentation, billing, and admin. AB7 reclaims those hours via HIPAA-compliant remote staff fluent in your EMR.

On the State

Five fires inside Healthcare Admin & Operations ops.

The reading

What we hear from healthcare admin & operationsoperators isn't a strategy gap — it's an execution gap. The roadmap is fine. The spreadsheet is fine. What's missing is the bench required to actually run it. That's what we built AB7 for.

Below: the five fires we keep finding inside this category. Each one maps cleanly to one of AB7's six service pillars — which is the point of the rest of this brief.

“Most healthcare admin & operationsbuyers don't need more advice — they need staffed seats.”

— AB7 Industry Desk
The five fires5 of 5
  1. .01

    Physicians drowning in documentation

    Solo + group-practice MDs spending 2 hrs/day on EMR notes — burnout rising, patient throughput dropping. Live + async medical scribes solve this.

  2. .02

    AR > 90 days bleeding revenue

    Practices losing 12% of revenue to denied claims, slow eligibility verification, and aging AR. RCM specialists own end-to-end revenue cycle.

  3. .03

    Prior auth backlog killing throughput

    Specialty practices losing 18% of claims to missing or late prior auth. Dedicated prior-auth specialists turn 4-day cycles into 24 hours.

  4. .04

    Multi-state telehealth complexity

    Telehealth platforms managing licensing across 12+ US states need coordinator pods who understand multi-state credentialing + payer rules.

  5. .05

    Insurance verification eating front-desk time

    Front-desk staff spending 40-60% of time on eligibility / benefits checks. Dedicated insurance verification specialists deliver same-day SLA.

On the 90-Day Arc

What changes, and when.

Outcomes tracked weekly inside your shared dashboard — not promised in a deck.

Reading the arc

The first 14 days are setup and absorption. Real movement on metrics begins around Day 30. By Day 90, the bench is steady-state and you're measuring outcomes — not the engagement.

This is also your ROI window

Most healthcare admin & operations operators recoup setup cost by Day 60 from a combination of savings + uplift on the metrics below.

  1. Milestone
    Day 14

    Physicians reclaim 9-12 hrs/wk for patient care via live + async scribing

  2. Milestone
    Day 30

    AR > 90 days reduced 30-50% in 90 days via end-to-end RCM

  3. Milestone
    Day 60

    Prior-auth turnaround 4 days → 24 hours

  4. Milestone
    Day 75

    Denial rate cut from 12% → 4-6% via specialty-trained coders

  5. Milestone
    Day 90

    60-70% cost savings vs fully-loaded US healthcare hires
