Ryan Brothers Ambulance realizes the unique and indispensable value of the Wisconsin Statewide Health Information Network, Inc. (WISHIN) with a 4X return on investment.
Ryan Brothers Billing Manager Christine Pauley says, “WISHIN saves us about three hours a day, or 15 hours per week, previously spent calling facilities for patient information. Since using WISHIN, Ryan Brothers billing department is more efficient and has improved its collection processes actually billing out calls and making money for you versus writing off runs as an expense.”
WISHIN is a non-profit, vendor-agnostic health information exchange connected to more than 80% of Wisconsin hospitals. WISHIN also connects integrated and independent clinics, public health agencies, post-acute facilities, correctional facilities, pharmacies and payors. With the benefit of single sign-on, WISHIN makes the connection efficient. The time saved by not having to make phone calls to hospitals for patient face sheets or supporting information or exchanging faxes adds up. For Ryan Brothers, the time saved is not just a money- saver, it’s a money-maker.
This is one example of WISHIN connecting Wisconsin healthcare providers in an efficient and effective fashion to help them do their jobs.
Ryan Brothers Ambulance has experienced the valuable return on investment WISHIN provides. “WISHIN is beneficial for us in an administrative way,” Pauley said, “and it’s beneficial for the patient. WISHIN helps us make sure the patient’s bills get paid.”
