Denials aren't inevitable: Why hospitals are embracing the power of prevention


Thursday, May 8th, 2025 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT

Claims denials cost hospitals nearly $20 billion each year — much of which is avoidable. Yet, most health systems remain locked in a cycle of rework, treating denials as an inevitability rather than a solvable problem.

Forward-thinking organizations are breaking this cycle by standing up dedicated denial prevention teams that don't just manage denials but eliminate them at the source.

This webinar unpacks how hospitals can shift from reactive denial management to proactive prevention — reducing write-offs, improving cash flow and strengthening payer relationships.

Key insights include:
 
  • The financial and operational impact of separating denial prevention from denial management
  • How data-driven denial prevention strategies reduce revenue loss and administrative burden
  • Proven frameworks for structuring a high-impact denial prevention team that delivers measurable ROI
