In addition, the group has improved customer satisfaction, increased cash flow, and reduced operational expenses.
?Noble Systems has enabled Wake Forest University Physicians? Business Operations to operate more efficiently, effectively and economically,? states Denise Fetters, Associate Vice President, Business Operations.
?This single solution is providing patients the ability to inquire about their balances 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and make payments through the IVR. Patients are pre-registered prior to their appointments, improving patient and physician satisfaction. Patient Service Representatives immediate on-screen access to patient information is seamless to the patients, improving productivity and providing an avenue that has allowed us to significantly improve collections. Within two weeks following implementation, we had our ROI. By month end, we far exceeded our expectations with cash collections. The Noble Solution empowered us to utilize the system in far more aspects than was originally intended. We are a driven, visionary group and anticipate adding more enhancements with Noble this upcoming fiscal year and in the future. Considering return on investment, patient and physician satisfaction, and economies of scale, we are very pleased that we chose Noble Systems as our technology partner.? Chris Hodges, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing at Noble Systems, says, ?Wake Forest University Physicians targeted four areas in which it wanted to improve operations to achieve best practices in its daily operations.
