DALLAS, June 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Axxess, an industry leader in home health management software -- also the only software vendor accredited by the American Nursing Credentialing Center – has released an eGuide aimed at helping home health agencies select the right revenue cycle management (RCM) system to effectively manage their cash flow and grow their business.

Research by American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) indicates that providers should expect a decrease in productivity of 54.4 - 69 percent during the first year of ICD-10 code set implementation. "Agencies will experience more errors and rejected claims impacting their payments," said John Olajide, President and CEO of Axxess. "To counter this, home health agencies must gain control of their revenue processes. Agencies will need the right RCM system in place to ensure reliable cash flow, which will directly affect their ability to conduct business."

The Axxess eGuide Revenue Cycle Management: What You Must Do Now – to Succeed! will help agencies learn how an effective RCM system will:

Reduce common errors
Increase visibility into claims processes
Help owners better anticipate cash flow issues
Create integrated and accurate scheduling, Medicare eligibility checking, claims tracking, financial reporting, compliance controls, and more

With the right RCM system, home health operators will be in a better position to monitor their claims process and cash flow, manage potential business risks, and make strategic plans to grow their businesses.
