Charge Lag measures how long it takes a finished PCR to turn into a submitted claim. The shorter the lag, the faster the cash.
What it shows
Distribution of the time between PCR completion and claim submission, in days, plus a trend line tracking median lag by month.
What it is useful for
- Spotting documentation-to-billing handoff slowdowns.
- Catching specific units or shifts whose runs consistently submit slowly.
- Quantifying the AR impact of any process change you make on the documentation side.
Where the data comes from
The PCR completion timestamp comes from CloudPCR. The claim-submission timestamp comes from Billing. Charge Lag joins the two and computes the difference per claim.
