Data and Analysis

Effective revenue cycle management includes the review of data in order to analyze an organization’s financial productivity. Doing so provides leadership with insight into finances that is essential to informed decision-making.

NFPRHA's Work

NFPRHA works to ensure its members have the resources they need to collect programmatic financial data and conduct an effective analysis. NFPRHA also advocates on the federal level to ensure the data collection and reporting required for Title X is not unnecessarily onerous on grantees and subrecipients.
