SEI Quick Poll: Decreased Reimbursements to Have a High Impact on Healthcare Revenues in 2012
Survey Provides Mid-Year Update on Healthcare Financial Planning and Priorities
(firmenpresse) - OAKS, PA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/25/12 -- U.S. healthcare finance executives say that decreased reimbursements under healthcare reform could have a significant impact on their bottom lines for the remainder of 2012, according to a quick poll released today by SEI (NASDAQ: SEIC). The majority (85 percent) of poll participants said that decreased reimbursements could have a significant impact on their ability to keep operating expenses from increasing as a percentage of revenue this year.
SEI's Healthcare Management Research Panel surveyed 50 healthcare executives of nonprofit and for-profit healthcare organizations to determine the top spending needs, market challenges, and financial priorities impacting their organizations' portfolios and driving their financial strategies for the remainder of 2012. Additional areas of negative financial impact include investments to support staffing and workforce needs, investments in health information technology, and market volatility.
Conducted in May and June 2012, the SEI Quick Poll revealed additional key findings:
; almost three-quarters (73 percent) of poll participants reported that their organizations currently have a credit rating of "A" or higher.
; only 8 percent of poll participants made major withdrawals from investment pools to support operational shortfalls in the past 12 months.
; 81 percent of poll participants felt they had nothing more than an adequate process to evaluate asset allocations and their impact on different investment pools and overall finances.
"New payment models coupled with an increasingly complex and volatile economic environment is forcing many healthcare investment committees and finance executives to re-evaluate their investment process," said , Vice President and Managing Director, Solutions Team, SEI's . "As a result, many healthcare organizations are partnering with a provider to create a more sophisticated and integrated approach for identifying the impact of asset allocations on each investment pool and the organization's financial goals at large."
