For independent imaging centers carrying lien receivables from personal-injury referrals.
What you're carrying
A PI referral is a high-ticket single encounter — an MRI billed at [X] with no ongoing relationship to manage afterward. Which means your lien book is a stack of one-shot receivables, each waiting on a lawsuit you can't see into.
A two-location center doing [X]M a year with a meaningful PI mix typically carries [X]00K or more in open lien AR at any moment.
The first read
When imaging centers pull their closed-case history for the first time, three things tend to show up: a realization rate well below what anyone assumed, one or two referring firms quietly responsible for most of the reductions, and a handful of aged cases nobody was tracking.
The report usually pays for itself in the first firm-by-firm table.
The sample report is built from an anonymized imaging center's closed cases, so the firm-by-firm table you'd get looks like the one shown there. Read the imaging sample report.
Median realization for imaging sits in the published benchmarks alongside the other segments, with sample counts shown. See median realization by segment.
Who this is for
Built for independently owned centers — not hospital-owned, not consolidated. If your practice decides for itself and carries its own paper, this was built for you.
