Private Equity's Reimbursement Challenge
Private equity firms face a critical blind spot when analyzing healthcare portfolio performance. Traditional benchmarking provides only high-level comparisons that mask the most significant opportunities for EBITDA improvement. Without precise, code-level benchmarking, portfolio companies struggle to:
Prioritization Challenges
Difficulty prioritizing which payor contracts represent the highest-ROI opportunities
Hidden Disparities
Inability to identify which specific CPT codes are most underpaid relative to market
Impact Quantification
Difficulty quantifying the exact revenue impact of bringing rates to appropriate benchmarks
Value Tracking
Challenges tracking and measuring the impact of reimbursement initiatives on enterprise value
