How Magnolia Regional Health Center Modernizes Payments

A case study in increasing revenue and saving time. Learn how Magnolia Regional Health Center modernizes payments with ECHO for Accounts Payable and MEDITECH Expanse.

About Our Client

Magnolia Regional Health Center is a multi-specialty hospital in Corinth, Mississippi. This 200-bed community hospital serves nearly 160,000 residents in Alcorn County and the surrounding areas across northeast Mississippi and southern Tennessee.

The Opportunity

When Magnolia Regional Health Center (MRHC) updated their EHR, they took the opportunity to add more efficiencies to their accounts payable workflow with the help of MEDITECH Expanse and ECHO for Business.

At first, MRHC used a Virtual Card solution through their payment platform provider, which offered cash back, rebates, and discounts for using their payment processor. While this solution created an additional revenue stream, the process of importing and exporting payments to the platform, alongside standard reconciliation, was manual and time-consuming.

A Fully Integrated Solution

MRHC engaged ECHO because we had recently collaborated with MEDITECH to develop a new seamlessly integrated solution that automates payment and reconciliation processes. Fully integrated and ready-to-go, ECHO for Accounts Payable eliminates complexity by seamlessly integrating with MEDITECH Expanse, making digital payment capabilities accessible without additional IT resources.

MRHC went live with ECHO for Accounts Payable to facilitate effortless payment initiation and reconciliation within MEDITECH Expanse. Accounts Payable acts as the single integration point to any healthcare payment platform, giving MRHC the capability to choose, use, or swap their payment platform provider, along with the continued ability to flex the solution to their ever-changing payment needs. This partnership created the following results:
