TruBridge Honored as One of Modern Healthcare's Best in Business

Key Terms

revenue cycle management financial

Revenue cycle management is the set of processes a healthcare provider or medical business uses to turn patient care into cash, including registering patients, billing insurers, submitting claims, collecting payments and handling denials. Think of it as the organization’s checkout system and follow-up team; efficient management shortens the time to get paid, reduces lost revenue and lowers financial risk, which directly affects cash flow and profitability that investors watch closely.

rcm financial

Revenue cycle management (RCM) is the set of administrative and financial processes healthcare providers use to record services, translate them into insurance claims, bill payers and patients, and collect payment. For investors, RCM drives how quickly and reliably a provider converts care into cash — like the difference between a smooth supermarket checkout and a slow, error-prone line — so strong RCM supports predictable revenue and margins while weak RCM increases lost or delayed income.

critical access hospital medical

A critical access hospital is a small, rural hospital designated by regulators to provide emergency care, short-term inpatient stays and basic outpatient services to communities that are far from larger medical centers. It matters to investors because these hospitals qualify for special Medicare payment rules that help cover costs, making their revenue and acquisition prospects very different from larger hospitals—think of them as the local fire station for medical care that keeps a community functioning.

ar days financial

AR days measure how long, on average, it takes a company to collect payment after making a sale. Think of it like timing how many days pass before a friend repays money you lent them: fewer days means cash returns quickly, while more days suggest slower collections and higher risk of unpaid bills. Investors watch AR days because they affect a company’s cash flow, working capital needs and signs of sales quality or credit problems.

The company was recognized in the Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) category for its best-in-class solutions, which help rural and community healthcare providers improve financial stability.

MOBILE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- TruBridge, Inc. (NASDAQ: TBRG), a leading provider of healthcare technology solutions for rural and community hospitals, is honored to be named among Modern Healthcare’s 2025 Best in Business. The award reflects the commitment TruBridge has to rural and community healthcare and its mission to help providers recoup revenue, reduce denials and strengthen fiscal sustainability.

Building on its 45-year legacy and serving more than 1,500 clients nationwide, TruBridge reached several key milestones in 2025 that led to this recognition. One success story comes from a 25-bed critical access hospital, where TruBridge helped the facility recover from the brink of closure. Through the partnership, the hospital was able to regain financial stability, decrease AR days by 61% and recover $2.6M in backlog revenue.

“This recognition sets TruBridge apart as a true leader in healthcare revenue cycle,” said Merideth Wilson, general manager of financial health. “At TruBridge, we believe fiscal strength is the foundation of community health. We are honored to share this spotlight with our clients that work tirelessly each day to deliver high-quality care to their communities.”

“We are proud to honor this year’s recipients of Modern Healthcare’s Best in Business Award,” said Dan Peres, President of Modern Healthcare. “These organizations demonstrate the progress, creativity and excellence that help move healthcare forward. Their innovative approaches and measurable impact are redefining what’s possible in care delivery and operations. Congratulations to this year’s honorees for their exceptional achievements and lasting contributions.”

Rural and community hospitals deliver essential care to one in five Americans and offer vital economic support through jobs, stability and expanded access to services. In a year where many health systems faced rising costs and closure threats, TruBridge remained a key support and stabilizer for rural and community providers. This award builds on a decades-long track record of success and multiple TruBridge HFMA Peer Reviewed designations, including recent recognition for its Medical Coding Services.
