      jschneider – Medical Savings

      MOST HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS ARE OVERPAYING FOR THEIR BUSINESS SERVICES – AND DON’T EVEN KNOW IT

      In today’s challenging economic climate, it’s more important than ever for healthcare facilities—including hospitals, surgery centers, physician practices, and imaging centers—to regularly assess their financial health. Rising operational costs and ongoing staffing shortages make it critical to identify opportunities for savings and efficiency.

      Facility Administrators often find themselves stretched thin, with clinical teams dedicating 36+ hours a week to patient care. This leaves little time to develop strategies that improve profitability or evaluate new ways to streamline operations. As a result, many Healthcare Providers are unknowingly overpaying for essential business services.

      Reviewing and optimizing services like Waste Management or Merchant Services can be time-consuming and frustrating—but it doesn’t have to be. When was the last time your facility reviewed these contracts and pricing structures?

      Now is the perfect time to take advantage of a no-cost, no-obligation audit from Schooley Mitchell—a trusted partner in helping healthcare organizations uncover hidden savings and improve operational performance.

      Medical Waste

      How predictable is your medical waste every month?

      Variability in your medical waste from month-to-month makes a big difference to certain service providers.

      How do you deal with amalgam waste? Contaminated waste? Sharps?

      Each of these require a specific disposal method that could represent additional costs.

      Who supplies your medical waste and sharps containers and how are they stored?

      Operational procedures and location specific descisions can substantially impact your overall pricing.

      Merchant Services

      Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?

      A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.

      Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?

      How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.

      Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?

      This pricing structure is often the least expensive and most transparent option.

      Telecom

      Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?

      In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.

      Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?

      Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.

      Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?

      Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.

      Shipping

      Have you considered splitting your shipping business across multiple vendors?

      Vendors tend to specialize in certain areas so playing to their unique strengths can reduce your overall costs.

      Are you paying for unnecessary delivery guarantees?

      Being more flexible on delivery times can significantly reduce your costs.

      Do you review your monthly statements to ensure the correct charge codes are used?

      Charge codes can be very confusing and require a detailed review to ensure you are being charged correctly.

When Aneetha came back to me and presented the report, I was delighted to discover that our expenses are already optimized. Discovering that we haven't been overpaying is a huge relief. Because Schooley Mitchell's only fees are a portion of savings found, the entire analysis came at no cost to us."

      "The process was simple and seamless. After a brief conversation and providing our invoices, her team handled everything. While no savings were identified, we gained something just as valuable: confirmation that my expenses are already optimized. That peace of mind is significant. And because her fees are contingent on savings found, the review came at no cost to me. Aneetha is a professional, thorough, and easy to work with. I highly recommend connecting with her for a risk-free expense review."

          It’s all too easy to let seats go unoptimized or unused as your company grows and changes.

          Are you paying for more than you need?

          Some bundles charge for more than you use. We help you find the solution best suited for your needs.

          Are you paying competitive rates?

          Without comparative data, how can you be sure? Schooley Mitchell has the database of client data to be certain.

          Case Study

          The Client:

          • Signs a Service Agreement that covers our business terms
          • Provides us with bills, or online access to their accounts, so we can establish a baseline of their current rate structure
          • Signs a letter of agency, so we can negotiate with their current vendors
          • Describes their current processing environment

          Schooley Mitchell:

          • Uses our benchmarking data to research options and negotiates better pricing for the client
          • Requests, reviews, and validates competitive quotes from other processors
          • Negotiates with the current vendor for a re-rate
          • Compiles our research and recommendations into a Value Report
          • Assists with the cancellation of services if needed
          • Assists with compliance standards
          • Implements pricing and changes
          • Confirms the new price 30 days after implementation

          Client A:

          An attorneys office, with an average annual revenue between $1 to $5 million. Their pain points included:

          • Very poor service experience from incumbent phone system provider left them without phones for multiple employees with no clear path forward to close gap
          • Concerned costs for overnight document shipping were out of line with no ability to compare to the broader market
          • Limited time to investigate phone providers and shipping costs and no market data to use while negotiating

          Client A sought Schooley Mitchell’s marketplace intelligence and expertise to assist with a phone transition and to save money across essential services.

          Schooley Mitchell's Solution:

          • Reduced shipping, data/internet, and waste removal costs with no vendor change
          • Coordinated transition of phone system to a modern platform, added needed phone, and reduced phone system spend

          "We brought Aman in to review our shipping, telecom, and waste expenses - things that aren’t usually top of mind but definitely add up. His team made the process simple and didn’t disrupt our operations. The results spoke for themselves: 14% annual shipping savings without switching vendors, and peace of mind knowing we were already optimized elsewhere. Aman and his team were responsive, transparent, and clearly know how to help law firms run leaner without cutting corners. If you’re looking for a smart way to improve your bottom line, I’d definitely recommend having a conversation with him."
