More than 60 Percent of Molecular Testing Lab Claims Nationwide Processed through XIFIN System
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- XIFIN Inc., the company revolutionizing revenue cycle management for diagnostic service providers, announced today that Response Genetics, Inc., a leading developer of molecular diagnostic tests for cancer including ResponseDX: Lung™, ResponseDX: Colon™ and ResponseDX: Gastric™, with laboratory facilities in Los Angeles, has implemented XIFIN’s revenue cycle management system to optimize billing and claims management and help manage cash collections.
A proven leader in the molecular testing market, more than 60 percent of the molecular testing business submitted by laboratories specializing in molecular diagnostics nationwide are processed by the XIFIN system. XIFIN is unique in its approach to MDx labs, and offers them the XIFIN system in both an in-house and XIFIN-staffed outsourced model. The company works with these labs to determine and implement a billing setup that’s optimal for each lab; a molecular lab on the XIFIN system can readily transition from one model to another as its business dictates, without having to change systems, and with the full confidence that XIFIN can scale to any size and provide the strategic reporting capabilities essential to high growth, high volume labs.
The company also offers professional consulting services to help guide early stage companies through the complex process of commercialization, including coding and pricing strategies and patient advocacy programs.
“We believe XIFIN’s expertise in molecular diagnostic billing best positioned us to effectively manage RGI’s cash flow while bringing billing and collections in-house during a period of tremendous company growth and also to meet the stringent regulatory requirements for public companies,” stated David O’Toole, vice president and CFO at Response Genetics. “We looked at a number of vendors and quickly determined that XIFIN had the best capabilities and reporting and is considered by many as the gold standard for diagnostic companies. We are thrilled with the results so far. Only a month in, we’ve already achieved 100 percent clean claims, and have seen a significant reduction in DSO for Medicare reimbursement, which will have a positive impact on our monthly cash flow.”
Lâle White, CEO of XIFIN, commented, “For more than 12 years, XIFIN has been committed to helping diagnostic service providers like RGI improve revenue cycle management. As we continue to expand in the molecular diagnostics market, it is clear that these specialized companies are looking for a reliable revenue cycle management system vendor that understands the unique needs of their business, and they are choosing XIFIN. We are excited to partner with RGI to provide both a robust, scalable billing system and a framework to strategically manage their operations to optimize profitability.”
