Your ASC Needs to Stop Flying Blind and Build a Smarter Reporting Cadence.
Listen Today!
What if your ASC could see problems weeks before they hit your bank account? We dig into a practical playbook for turning raw data into clear decisions, from daily flash reports that act like a heartbeat to monthly benchmarks that expose where performance drifts and why. Instead of waiting for cash-basis financials to tell a late story, we focus on questions that move leaders to action: Where did payer mix shift? Which referrals slowed? Are we prioritizing the right cases at capacity? And are our fee schedules quietly capping revenue?
We share a simple, powerful benchmark strategy: index everything to Medicare. With that lens, a steady month of cases can still produce a revenue dip if Medicaid volume rises or a commercial contract underperforms. Using NPIs to track referral sources brings transparency to relationships, helping you target outreach when a group’s volume fades. Then we layer in forecasting: take the last 90–180 days, project cash forward, incorporate known inflows and takebacks, and set thresholds so partner distributions and capital decisions stop being guesses and start being planned.
