What Sets Magellan Solutions Apart From Other Healthcare BPO Companies In Philippines?

Published by Magellan Solutions at August 6, 2021

Reasons why healthcare BPO companies in Philippines are thriving

Hospitals and clinics exist to provide patient care. But they must still operate just like how businesses do. It is a delicate balancing act. Especially in healthcare where margins are low and patient expectations are high.

In order to grow and thrive, every business has to consider managing costs as well as outputs.

Magellan Solutions’ Healthcare BPO is a resourcing strategy that can, in fact, benefit both sides of the business equation.

What challenges make Magellan Solutions’ healthcare process outsourcing attractive?

To shorten the billing cycle and capture every possible dollar, healthcare organizations turn to our revenue cycle management (RCM) for help.

Our RCMs are able to balance costs and deliverables better than anyone else. This is important for us because we want to attract and keep healthcare customers.

Through Magellan Solutions’ RCM, we can help as the best healthcare BPO provider with the following:

Shortage of skilled talent to meet the growing need for medical and non-medical personnel
Size constraints that make it difficult or impossible to increase staffing, or even to add a full-time specialized position
Budget constraints, regardless of business size, that affect operations and capital investment decisions
Complex and ever-changing compliance requirements
Well-informed patients who expect top-quality, personalized care at an affordable cost
Fierce competition, not only from other providers but a widening range of peripheral businesses that are entering the healthcare arena
Non-medical concerns such as cybersecurity, with threats to digital health records and other patient data as well as the organization’s own business and financial data.

What can we do for you as one of the top healthcare BPO companies in Philippines?

In recent years, providers have successfully expanded patient services and quality by outsourcing clinical services.

However, the trend is now shifting toward outsourcing business processes.

Traditionally, non-medical functions such as housekeeping, dietary services, or security have been commonly outsourced. But the work must be performed onsite which means outsourcing opportunities must remain local.

However, there are a multitude of other roles that rely heavily on technology. This opens the door to a wide range of healthcare outsourcing opportunities.

Patient scheduling and follow-up
Administration and recordkeeping (medical coding, charting, transcription, claims processing, billing, payment processing)
IT (cybersecurity, systems design for digital transformation, data management)
Customer care (service/support)
Compliance management
Financial management and accounting
Human resources
Sales
Marketing

Obviously, these tasks are not core business functions of healthcare. But they are vitally important to running an efficient operation.

8 Advantages with Magellan Solutions’ healthcare BPO industry

With a myriad of services available, and being experts in each, Magellan Solutions can offer the expertise that other healthcare process outsourcing cannot.

Some of these expertise are:

1. IT leading the way

Digital transformation has become essential across all industries.

Our team of IT professionals enhance patient care and facilitate electronic recordkeeping and data security.

However, as critical as technology and tech services are, IT is not a core function. That makes it an ideal outsourcing opportunity to us.

2. Growth of RCM

According to Black Book, between 2015 and 2018 alone, the demand for full revenue cycle management outsourcing increased 86%.

Globally, this sector is expected to grow from $52 billion in 2019 to $258 billion by 2027, a rate of 13% annually.

Because of its continuous growth, we guarantee that Magellan Solutions is the best partner for your RCM needs. We can handle everything, from hiring and monitoring your team.

3. Competition for good talent

Competition for well-trained, experienced personnel is tough. Furthermore, personnel costs represent a major component of any organization’s budget.

If implemented properly, Magellan Solutions can help cure many of the most challenging symptoms providers face today. We can improve operations efficiency and productivity to support desired growth while mitigating growing pains.

Lastly, we deliver higher quality customer service and patient outcomes compared to other call centers.

4. Better cost control

Acquiring and maintaining technology is a major expense. Requiring substantial capital investment for upgrading or replacement and never-ending maintenance costs.

Here at Magellan Solutions, we can shift this burden and help healthcare organizations improve both cash flow management and capital investment strategy.

Moreso, we decrease out-of-pocket HR expenses for recruiting, training, and maintaining skilled personnel for as much as 70% savings. We reduce turnover, saving direct costs of employee replacement and retraining and indirect costs of productivity lapses and mistakes.

Outsourcing with us can also shorten the revenue cycle, significantly improving cash flow. It can also increase overall revenue through improved collections.

5. Competitive edge

Magellan Solutions provides a wealth of talent and increased capabilities, not possible for in-house personnel.

Thanks to our inherent flexibility, healthcare organizations can gain valuable scalability. Agility is mission-critical in healthcare to facilitate planned growth, support fluctuating needs and adapt to unforeseen changes.

Furthermore, we expand capacity to generate greater revenue by taking on more patients and/or offering a greater range of medical services.

6. Better outcomes

We can increase quality and efficiency in numerous ways. But it does not mean giving up control. Rather, it means shifting the “who and where.”

Here at Magellan Solutions, we focus on broader management issues and on improving the service quality.

We want to relieve staff of routine administrative work and free their time. We are aware that organizations’ priority is to focus on patients and their care. As a result, we improve both health and morale for medical professionals and staff.

Happier staff means less turnover and therefore further savings. Happy patients are more likely to remain loyal and even help promote the provider to others, increasing long-term revenue.

7. Avoid critical mistakes

Errors in the healthcare sector, especially in the patients’ medical records, can cost lives.

According to Healthcare Business Tech, close to $125 billion is lost every year due to poor billing practices. Medical bills also contain a large number of errors as changing billing rules and regulations are rarely updated on time.

We strictly adhere to rules and regulations set by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This is to ensure that patient records remain private and are not wrongly entered.

8. Lowering costs

In an industry as competitive as healthcare, the main aim of businesses is to look at ways to reduce expenses.

Magellan Solutions helps save a significant amount of money when organizations choose outsourcing their tasks to us.

We handle a large team of professionals on the behalf of the healthcare company thereby saving the company the cost of acquiring additional staff and training them. Our team keeps organizations updated with the latest changes in regulations and standards.

Various healthcare companies consider us for cost savings and have better control over the cost of the outsourced function.
