AprimaRCM Revenue Cycle Management
Are you getting paid what you earned?
You didn’t enter the field of medicine for the joy of managing denied claims or hiring billing staff. Unless you dedicate a good share of attention to these tasks, though, you may be losing thousands of dollars every month in denied claims, underpayments, missed deadlines, and inaccurate coding.
Knowing this, Aprima™ created a revenue cycle management solution — AprimaRCM — to take on these responsibilities. We make sure that your practice receives all the income you’ve earned, holding ourselves personally accountable for ensuring you are paid promptly and fully. Best of all: Our fees are aligned with your collections. You get paid before we get paid.
AprimaRCM: Revenue Cycle Management
What results do practices see from the AprimaRCM service?
- Some customers see dramatic improvement in their collections; on average, practices gain 7-9%.
- Faster payments — days in A/R 13 days less than MGMA averages for each specialty, frequently under 30 days — a documented 30% improvement over published MGMA survey data
- Denied or underpaid claims pursued every time, every claim, boosting revenue up to 29%
- More accurate charges and reduced undercoding
- Higher reimbursements by resolving credentialling issues
- Fewer no-shows (and lost revenue) with patient appointment reminders
- Better forecasting and understanding of practice finances
AprimaRCM doesn’t just write off denied charges or underpayments. We have the financial knowledge we need to be proactive rather than reactive-and act swiftly and diligently on that intelligence to appeal inappropriate denials or underpayments.
“AprimaRCM doesn’t leave a penny on the table. Every month, our collections just go up and up — from $80,000 before we started using Aprima to almost $220,000 last month. Choosing AprimaRCM is the best decision we ever made.”

AprimaRCM: Making the Most of Your Aprima System
Much more than just a billing service, AprimaRCM is a comprehensive front- and back-office solution that manages the entire revenue process, from credentialling to eligibility checking to appealing denied claims. The service leverages Aprima’s built-in capabilities, such as integrated code scrubbing, to help you get paid quickly and at higher percentages than ever before.
Experienced Account Managers Make The Difference
With 7+ years of experience, each Aprima Account Manager works with practices to drive efficiency improvements in all aspects of the revenue cycle: billing, coding recommendations, and financial forecasting. These are just a few of the ways your Account Manager can help you:
- Make recommendations for earning higher reimbursements
- Spot likely coding omissions, such as forgetting to bill for equipment use.
- Compare payments to contract allowables in order to spot underpayments.
- Educate your practice on regulatory changes that could affect you.
- Bring experience to help improve your practice’s financial performance.
Partnering for Performance
Many practices lack the time and expertise to manage appeals and other billing issues that can result in thousands of dollars lost every month.
AprimaRCM provides that focus and expertise, partnering with each practice to help increase reimbursements, speed up payment time, and reduce denials and underpayments.
AprimaRCM + EHR for Even More Powerful Results
AprimaRCM produces remarkable results through a synergy between the Aprima Practice Management software and our experienced AprimaRCM Account Managers. For even more powerful results, create a fully integrated electronic medical office by adding Aprima’s Electronic Health Record (EHR).
The Aprima PM+EHR system provides a single integrated tool for managing every detail of patient care, scheduling, billing, and more. It speeds up charting, automates many tasks, saves time, and eliminates the need to transfer or re-enter data.

“I have been using AprimaRCM since 2007. We have a great relationship with their staff and have been extremely pleased with the work they have done. Our A/R dropped 30% in the first 3 to 6 months. Last year was my most profitable since I started in solo practice in 2002.”

When other practice managers ask Stacy Perez of Covington Cardiovascular Care about her experience with AprimaRCM, she says, “If you’re using Aprima, you should be using AprimaRCM, too. They know the product backwards and forwards because they bill out of it every day. The AprimaRCM team made our transition to the Aprima PM much easier.”
