Third Party Collections

Abstract

In this study, the researcher highlights the factors identified by Inspector General Audits and other research that inhibit the Navy's Third Party Collections Program from maximizing collections (TPC) from third-party payers as a result of failing to identify and collect Other Health Insurance (OHI) Information from patients. It also looks into possible behaviors and attitudes from both hospital staff and patients that may be contributing to the problem of maximum collections.
