Why Revenue Cycle Outsourcing Isn’t Solving Your Denials Problem And What to Do Before 2026

A strategic guide for hospital leaders who are rethinking the role of automation, outsourcing, and operational control in 2025.

Built for CEOs, CFOs, and RCM decision-makers, this guide lays out the blind spots of legacy outsourcing, reveals smarter strategies, and helps you avoid the automation trap that’s hurting more than it’s helping.

What You’ll Learn

This whitepaper challenges the conventional wisdom around RCM and offers a smarter path forward — one that’s already helping community hospitals stay independent, strengthen collections, and reduce staff burnout.

Why the automation-first model is failing hospitals — and what works instead

How blind cost-cutting compromises patient experience and workforce morale

5 myths of RCM outsourcing that most hospitals don’t see coming

A practical roadmap to build smarter, more strategic partnerships that protect visibility, control, and patient trust

Are you trusting the wrong revenue cycle strategy to protect them?

In 2025, your hospital’s independence and patient experience are on the line.

In this exclusive Becker’s whitepaper, you’ll uncover 5 critical myths hospitals fall into when outsourcing RCM, and how forward-thinking leaders are reimagining outsourcing as a lever for control, visibility, and long-term financial strength.

When presented with the option to have less control with a corporate partner, or partner with TruBridge, we chose TruBridge. The nTrust program allows us more centralized control over finances, and was a better deal than I had before.
