Commercial Laboratory Program
RCM Enterprise Services® (RCM) works with commercial laboratories to build and scale their laboratory programs to create additional revenue that will contribute to their organizations’ bottom lines—with minimal upfront cost.
RCM provides a proven service and technology program designed to address complex business processes found in laboratory testing and marketing. Our program positions your laboratory to capture a steady source of high-margin laboratory testing from physician offices, patient service centers, nursing homes, and industrial health programs in the marketplace you serve. Once operational, your program becomes self-sufficient. Regardless of size or capabilities, laboratories can leverage RCM’s technology and expertise to create, maintain, and grow laboratory business.
One Vendor – Multiple Technologies and Services
Laboratory programs face challenges that impact both the front end (laboratory operations) and the back end (billing and collections). Understanding the front-end and back-end challenges was the driving force behind RCM developing technologies and services that are designed to work together in a commercial laboratory setting.
