We hosted Office Hours from our New Orleans Center of Excellence, and Tim Anderson, EVP of Operations cut straight to what hospital revenue cycle leaders are wrestling with: AI creates efficiency, but it also creates disruption.
The real question isn't whether AI will change how teams work. It will. The question is whether that disruption empowers your high performers or burns them out.
Tim and Peggy Kelly, SVP of Revenue Cyle both made the same point: you can't just bolt AI onto existing workflows and expect people to adapt. Revenue cycle teams need room to think, contribute, and use their judgment. The technology should handle the repetitive work so your best people can do what they're actually good at; solving problems, catching edge cases, and making decisions automation can't.
Here's what matters: team engagement. Peggy emphasized that the hospitals doing this well aren't just deploying technology. They're measuring engagement systematically and collecting real feedback from the front lines. They're asking their teams what's working, what's getting in the way, and what they actually need to do their jobs better.
AI should create space for your team to work smarter, not just faster. If your revenue cycle staff are spending their time babysitting bots instead of using their expertise, something's wrong with the implementation.

Our New Orleans Center of Excellence was built around this exact philosophy; bringing together experienced revenue cycle professionals, AI-powered tools, and systematic feedback loops to help hospitals implement technology that actually supports their teams instead of replacing them.
