Overview
At the time of engagement, Midwest Medical Center was an 18-bed Critical Access facility located in Galena, Illinois. In addition to general medical and surgical services, this facility offers adult day care, assisted living and nursing home services. On the administrative side, Midwest Medical Center was going through a transition in personnel that made the recent opening of a replacement facility difficult. They began experiencing delays in the claim cycle and witnessed an increase in A/R.
