Analysis, and Industry Forecast till 2026
As the global healthcare industry continues to expand, healthcare providers are facing challenges in
maintaining optimal quality of services. Number of claims are increasing with increasing coverage of
medical insurance. Processing such claims along with the administrative tasks, patient care, and other
daily operations is cumbersome and involves high cost and trained personnel. Processing of claims in-
house by the healthcare provider has the risk of delayed payment, error in amounting, and customer
dissatisfaction. Moreover, healthcare providers need to be updated with changes in regulations and
new services and products being launched in the market for in-house processing of claims. Outsourcing
of medical claims ensures minimal error and faster turnover, thereby reducing risk of delayed payment.

represents an intolerable level of inefficiency that causes a loss of around US$ 17 billion each year.
