Medicare co-insurance collection

I am looking for hospitals who have been successful in collecting Medicare co-insurance to network with.

Benchmarks — eligibility preauthorization

I managed a centralized pre-registration department for outpatient services. Are there benchmarks per shift for eligibility preauthorization?

Benchmark — upfront collections

Does anyone have any benchmarking on collections up front? We currently collect in the ER, outpatient and inpatient departments.

Benchmark — registrations per hour

What is the benchmark for number of registrations per hour? For outpatient services, do the registrars order the diagnostic test?
