How UAMS Revenue Cycle Management Process Works?

We work closely with the customer to understand their processes, expectations and facilitate a smooth and seamless transition. Our outsourcing model is dynamic and is customer specific however here are few guiding principles.

Business Associate Agreement & Service Level Agreement:

The Business Associate Agreement is mutually signed and is intended to fulfil the requirements contained in the final regulations issued by the HAAD (Health Authority – Abu Dhabi for UAE & DHHS (Department of Health & Human Services for USA) in the implementation of HAAD Policy (Manuals were published in December 2012 for UAE ) & HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act of 1996 for USA) and to ensure that each party is committed towards protecting PHI (Protected health information) to the highest standard of safety and confidentiality.
The Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) defines the outsourcing service quality standards and lays the foundation for the overall success of the relationship. The SLA is developed in collaboration with the customers and not only details scope of the outsourcing services and measurement metrics but also reflects each other’s values and professional goals. We also do not hesitate to sign a Non-Compete & Non-Solicitation Agreements with our customers to instil confidence and good faith.

Account Executive Assigned – Key point of contact

​An experienced knowledgeable executive is assigned to every customer for handholding (handling) through the transition process and serves as a conduit between customer and the outsourced team. Once the services are established and active, the account executive will coordinate and communicate via phone or email at a customer defined frequency and/or as required by the customer.

​Secure Remote Access, File Transfer Systems, VPN Tunnels

​We will work with your IT support team to set up customer’s office computers and network for secure remote access as well as establish a file-transfer system for electronic transfer of files. In view of the sensitivity associated with the healthcare information all our teams work on fully locked down dumb terminal PC’s and have restricted remote access to customer’s software applications and tools required to accomplish the assigned job function in a secure manner.

Preliminary Training & Development

As we work on your software or system we always request some documentation on customer’s present process, training manuals for our teams to understand customer’s practice specifics and may schedule online meetings with customer’s current staff for better understanding of their processes. During this phase we would also request some demo accounts for our internal training and development.

​MIS Reporting Requirements

​We offer a variety of MIS reports & progress related reports based on customer needs however we can customize reports as per your requirements.
