Client Success Story: Lawrence Memorial Hospital

Challenge

Lawrence County Memorial Hospital is a 25-bed critical access hospital located in Lawrenceville, Illinois. It serves residents of Lawrence County and shares a border with Southwest Indiana. At the time Lawrence County selected Amplify, there had been high turnover in the role of patient financial services director and the CEO Don Robbins believed “money was being left on the table.”

Solution

A client of Ovation Healthcare, Lawrence County chose Amplify to “navigate the waters of the revenue cycle.” Amplify recruited a new patient financial services director to lead the effort at Lawrence County.

After initially using Amplify’s cash acceleration service, Lawrence County wanted to build on the strong results and chose to partner for more comprehensive revenue cycle services. The hospital insourced their existing revenue cycle staff and rebadged them as Amplify employees.

Results

In one year, Amplify increased collections by $3.1 million when adjusted for revenue—an increase of 16.5% in the gross collection rate.
