India's Leading Dialysis Service Provider
Our client is a leading dialysis service provider operating one of India's largest renal care networks. They deliver specialized kidney care through multiple service models—in-clinic dialysis, home-based programs, and mobile dialysis units—ensuring accessibility for patients across urban and rural areas.
With a presence spanning 290+ cities and a workforce of over 5,200 dedicated professionals, the organization serves thousands of patients requiring regular dialysis treatments. Their clinical delivery model depends heavily on visiting nephrologists and retainer doctors who provide specialized medical expertise at each clinic location.
Managing timely, accurate payments to these high-value nephrology consultants is critical—not just for financial operations, but for maintaining the clinical relationships that directly impact patient outcomes and care quality.
The Complexity of Healthcare Consultant Payments
In healthcare—particularly dialysis services—physician relationships are the backbone of clinical delivery. Unlike standard vendor payments, nephrologist payment workflows involve multiple fee structures, location-specific agreements, and time-sensitive processing requirements that demand specialized attention.
Complex Fee Structures
Dialysis physician payments involve minimum guarantees (MG), referral fees, per-session commissions, and consultation fees—each requiring precise calculation based on individual agreements.
High-Value Relationships
Nephrologists are specialized professionals whose expertise directly impacts patient outcomes. Payment delays can damage relationships essential to clinical operations and guest care quality.
Multi-Location Complexity
Managing consultant payments across 100+ clinics in different cities requires standardized processes while accommodating location-specific agreement terms and compliance requirements.
Payment Delays Threatening Critical Consultant Relationships
Despite operating a sophisticated clinical network, the organization faced significant challenges in their nephrologist payment workflow that were impacting consultant satisfaction and retention.
Delayed Payments Damaging Relationships
Delayed payments to visiting nephrologists and retainer doctors created dissatisfaction and damaged relationships critical to dialysis service delivery. These specialists are essential to patient outcomes, making payment delays a clinical risk, not just an operational issue.
No Clear Process Ownership or SLAs
No clear process ownership or turnaround time commitments for payment stages across 100+ clinics. Without defined dialysis doctor payment SLAs, accountability gaps meant payments could stall at any stage without escalation.
Reactive Payment Processing
Payment processing was reactive, with no proactive tracking for complex calculations including minimum guarantees (MG), referral fees, per-session commissions, and consultation fees. Each payment type required manual intervention and verification.
Lack of Payment Status Transparency
Lack of transparency in payment status created frequent queries from high-value nephrology specialists essential to guest outcomes. Finance teams spent significant time responding to status inquiries rather than processing payments.
Structuring End-to-End Nephrologist Payment Workflow
MYND designed and implemented a comprehensive dialysis physician payment processing framework—transforming reactive, fragmented operations into a structured, transparent system with clear ownership and defined SLAs.
Structured Payment Process Flow Process Design
