This session explores the high cost of delayed care for underserved populations, highlighting how systemic barriers, such as limited transportation, inadequate coverage, and low health literacy, contribute to higher costs and unpaid services for healthcare providers. When care is delayed, patient outcomes suffer, but financial impacts on providers and health systems can be just as severe. This episode explores real-world strategies to address the issue and its financial fallout, focusing on improving patient access and strengthening the financial health of healthcare organizations.

Key Topics:

• Recognize patterns of delayed care in vulnerable populations
• Calculate the downstream financial impact of untreated conditions
• Adopt innovative solutions, including care coordination, telehealth, and community partnerships, to bridge the gap
