Boston, MA -- (SBWire) -- 08/29/2013 --U.S. Healthcare BPO Market - Payer (Claims Processing, HR Services, and Finance and Accounts), Provider (Medical Billing and Coding), and Pharmaceutical (Clinical Trials, Contract Manufacturing, and Non-Clinical Services) - Trends and Global Forecasts to 2018
The U.S. healthcare outsourcing market has great potential for growth owing to the measures taken by the government to curb the ever-increasing healthcare costs. The other factors that have led to the growth of the market are: developments and innovation in information technology and regulatory changes. Approximately 75% of U.S. healthcare companies outsource their work to external locations. This is due to the shortage of qualified staff in key positions, such as nurses and coders, and due to the new set of rules and regulations that they need to comply with. Some services that are commonly outsourced are insurance claims processing, adjudication and receivables management, billing and coding services, radiology reporting, transcription services, and clinical outsourcing, among others.
