Universal Health Services forces Cerner to substitute legacy revenue cycle management software

Hospital management giant Universal Health Services is changing out its legacy revenue cycle management system for Millennium Revenue Cycle from the Cerner.


The step could signal the start of a latest wave of RCM work in healthcare, a market emphasis that analysts figure is a multi-billion dollar opportunity.


“Revenue cycle is a front-burner problem once again,” Piper Jaffrey analysts Sean Wieland and Nina Deka wrote in a day of March 31 brief.


Furthermore, a latest research by medical claims clearinghouse Navicure summarized that 66% of hospitals plan to concentrate on revenue cycle operations now that the transformation to ICD-10 is done and meaningful use is waning.


Among the vendors who stand to acquire the most are the big ones – Epic, Meditech, McKesson and Cerner.
