2019-002 ? Lack of Reasonable Collection Efforts (Originated in 2016) Recommendation: The Clinic implement policies and procedures to ensure timely billing and related monitoring of receivables for health services. Action Taken: Common Ground Health Clinic (CGHC) has strongly taking this recommendation into consideration. Due to the drastic transition in 2016 previously reported in pass audits, CGHC underwent several changes, implemented several policies in 2016 and 2017, and continued to update those policies in 2018 and 2019. One of those policies was a current and efficient sliding fee scale policy. The Clinic outsourced most of the billing in 2017 and later transitioned to an experienced in-house biller in November 2017. Since the onboarding of the in-house biller, the Clinic's collection efforts have improved drastically. Even still, the current collection process is always being monitored for best available practices and will continue in 2020. Both CFO and CEO and have met with representatives of HRSA in 202 to discuss collection efforts related to uninsured patients as well as with representatives from some commercial payers to discuss collection and payment of claims to improve both areas. Responsible Party: Carleetha Smith, CEO Bryant Williams, CFO Estimated Completion Date: Action was taken during fiscal 2019 with continued monitoring for best practices and policy updates by HRSA and will be fully implemented for the year ended December 31, 2020.
