What is "Days in Accounts Receivable"?

Your Money! You want to be paid by insurers and patients as quickly as possible. The industry standard to measure the speed of medical payments is “ Days in Accounts Receivable.”

Simply, it is how fast (or slow) in “days” it takes on average for your money to be collected from insurance companies and patients. Too many Days in AR results in lost revenue. For many medical specialties, CPB averages less than 23 days—which is considered excellent in the industry.
