Lein Consulting
Possessing the experience of both managing Lockbox Operations and selling Wholesale Lockbox to business clients, Lein Consulting is uniquely qualified to help banks and businesses understand the value proposition of Wholesale Lockbox. In addition, we are capable of helping Treasury Management Bankers understand how to determine which business clients would benefit from this valuable service.
There are two types of Lockbox service, Retail and Wholesale. A simple way to distinguish the two types is that Retail involves Consumer to Business payments and Wholesale involves Business to Business payments. By definition it is easy to see that Retail typically involves a larger volume of payments (checks) whereas Wholesale involves a smaller number of checks but a larger dollar volume.
Wholesale Lockbox has evolved over its many decades of existence and it is now a service used by Hospitals, Medical Clinics, Government Entities, Oil and Gas Companies, Manufacturing Companies and other industries. Each industry has different needs for the service such as Revenue Cycle Management, Automated Updating of Accounts Receivables, Improved Internal Audit Processes and Improved Productivity through Reallocation of Accounts Receivable Staff.
The Lein Consulting team is well equipped to train bank business develop officers on the process for identifying and assessing the need and value of Wholesale Lockbox prospects. Whether those are existing clients or prospects being courted by the bank. Some of the areas of focus our team covers are:
- Revenue Cycle Management and lost revenue by Hospitals and Medical Providers due to claims denial
- Productivity and Audit Benefits gained by implementation of Lockbox service
- Benefits of a complete Accounts Receivable bank automated interface
- Reduction of paper and improved records access via online image access
