Key Takeaways:

• The first question you must ask is, “what are you selling”? For example, a vendor of RPM is often selling software, devices, and clinical services in the form of management services.
• Identifying who your customers are or what revenue streams you have available is a key step in figuring out what the available payment mechanisms are. You may have more options than you think.
• In healthcare, designing a compliant business arrangement is key to capturing revenue without getting yourself in trouble. Noncompliance is a revenue risk.

“If you’re using those non-compliant business arrangements to capture the revenue, that revenue down the road may be clawed back from you.” - Carrie Nixon
