Medical Billing Outsourcing Industry: New Solutions, Investments, and M&A to Raise Industry Demand

Date Posted: Monday, July 29, 2024

 

The medical billing outsourcing market is a critical component of the healthcare industry, providing services to manage complex billing processes for healthcare providers. This includes services, such as coding, billing, and revenue cycle management, which are outsourced to specialized third-party providers. The growing complexity of medical billing, increasing healthcare costs, and the need for efficient revenue cycle management is driving the growth of this market.

 

A report published by The Brainy Insights shows that the global medical billing outsourcing market is expected to grow from $13 billion USD in 2022 to $40.3 billion USD by 2032, at a CAGR of 12% during the forecast period 2023-2032. North America emerged as the most significant global medical billing outsourcing market, with a 55% market revenue share in 2022, due to growing patient populations and upgraded medical facilities. The market is anticipated to grow due to increased usage of cutting-edge technology and rising awareness of clinical billing software. As an illustration, Omega Healthcare purchased Reventics, a provider of RCM solutions, in March 2022. Reventics develops solutions for provider engagement to enhance compliance and physician reimbursement.

 

Leading companies in the industry include R1RCM, Inc.; Veradigm, LLC; eClinicalWorks; Oracle; Kareo, Inc.; Quest Diagnostics, Inc.; AdvancedMD, Inc.; Promantra, Inc.; and McKesson Corporation. Among others, these companies offer more significant opportunities and continuously focus on new product developments and venture capital investments to obtain market share.

 

The component segment is divided into outsourced and in-house. The outsourced segment dominated the market, with a market share of around 53% in 2022. This is because more doctors' offices, hospitals, and startups are choosing to outsource their medical billing to manage claims quickly and cheaply. The end-user segment is divided into physician office, hospital, and others. The hospital segment dominated the market, with a market share of around 40% in 2022. A hospital, often known as a medical center, is a healthcare facility offering patients specialized medical care. Because most patients prefer hospitals for disease diagnosis and treatment, hospitals are anticipated to represent a sizable portion of the medical billing outsourcing market. The segmental expansion is projected to be favored over the following years by rising patient visits, the advantages of EHR systems in maintaining and storing patient health records, and help with invoicing. Handling problems during critical care or difficulties following treatment may be more straightforward in hospitals. As a result, hospitals are where most of the disease's procedures and treatments are carried out.

 

There is an increasing need to make the billing process more efficient because, with the help of an expert billing provider, there is a reasonable risk that a doctor's office or other business will generate less revenue than it should. The procedure calls for qualified experts. Efficiency in invoicing can help a business cut costs further while providing practitioners with benefits. A major problem is developing at the point of care due to increased hospital patient loads and the burden of keeping track of patient check-ins and insurance eligibility. Such records need to be managed.
