What the approved workflow needs to do.

Define leakage events such as no-shows, late cancellations, open waitlists, and overdue follow-ups
Assign each event to an accountable operational workflow

Create audit trails from opportunity to disposition
Review operational and financial outcomes together without double counting
Operating model

A closed loop, not another callback list.

  1. 01

    Baseline the leak

    Measure the current queue volume, resolution path, refill rate, and finance-approved value definition.

  2. 02

    Execute the recovery workflow

    Contact eligible patients, support permitted actions, and record every outcome against the original opportunity.

  3. 03

    Attribute conservatively

    Separate contacted, booked, attended, and financially recognized outcomes in the pilot scorecard.

Questions

What buyers usually need clarified.

Is this revenue-cycle management software?

No. This page addresses operational patient-access and follow-up leakage. It does not claim denial management, coding, billing, or collections capabilities.

How should recovered revenue be calculated?

Finance should approve the method. Keep a clear chain from opportunity to booked appointment, completed visit, and recognized value.

Can Ethon guarantee ROI?

No. A pilot should establish the hospital baseline, test one workflow, and report outcomes using agreed definitions.
