5 Things to Know About Healthcare Telecommunication Costs

Here are a few thoughts on healthcare telecommunication costs which your organization needs visibility into:

1. Just because your telecommunication costs are consistent each month does not guarantee that billing is accurate.

2. Vendors provide details about services, pricing, contract terms and locations via a customer service report. This report may have a different title depending on the vendor. When was the last time your organization analyzed this data?

3. Some states allow hospitals to access telecommunication vendor contracts within their procurement program – does your state?

4. Telecommunication contracts should be reviewed annually, even if mid-term.

5. Engaging a telecommunication expense reduction expert will provide insights into all costs and services allowing management to make better decisions about spend and realize significant cost reductions.
