Maximizing roi
Effective locum tenens management isn’t just about filling staffing gaps, it’s about maximizing value. One of the most overlooked opportunities for increasing return on investment (ROI) lies in properly enrolling locum providers. The below steps are our keys to successful billing but for a more in depth overview, please schedule a meeting!
1. Classify Your Locum Providers Correctly
Locum tenens providers typically fall into two categories: traditional locums and supplemental services.
2. Gather All Relevant Information
Once you’ve confirmed classification, collect all necessary documentation from the provider before initiating enrollment. Having complete and accurate paperwork upfront prevents costly delays and helps ensure faster approval timelines.
3. Determine Which Payors to Enroll With
Not all payors are created equal. Alumni Staffing recommends focusing on your top payors.
4. Be realistic in your efforts.
Enrollment timelines vary, so consider the assignment’s duration before proceeding.
5. Establish and Maintain a Standardized Process
Consistency is the foundation of success. Hospitals that achieve strong ROI from their locum programs follow a uniform process for every provider.
Focus on the three key pillars: Enrolling, loading, capturing. A standardized workflow helps ensure compliance, reduces administrative errors, and maximizes reimbursement opportunities.
6. Understand Backdating Rules
Each payor has unique policies regarding backdating. Know them well, to ensure success.
