After working in consulting you find out:

- there are companies dedicated to detecting “missing” treatment codes based on a patients chart

- companies dedicated to detecting hospitals gouging insurance companies, and deciding which instances to push back on and which to just ignore

- a whole slew of companies that essentially make awful old tooling “online enabled” by just syncing troubling amounts of data to salesforce

The companies making tons of money live in the margins and you’ll never see them. They can make one tiny thing more efficient and the hospitals are so poorly managed they’ll just add more contractor to the mix and pass the cost on.

There are no rules for hospital management and administrative reporting etc. it’s all a giant shit show
