2026 ICAHN Annual Conference

The ICAHN Annual Conference brings more than 200 rural hospital leaders together to share practical strategies, strengthen connections, and support flourishing hospitals and healthier Illinois communities.

Scott Cook and Taylor Searfoss of Infinx will be onsite to connect with critical access and rural hospital leaders navigating margin pressure, staffing constraints, payer complexity, and growing administrative demands.

Bring one challenge to the conversation:

• Revenue leakage across charge capture, coding, or billing
• Prior authorization delays and preventable denials
• Aging A/R consuming limited staff capacity

Scott and Taylor can help you examine where the workflow is breaking, what may be driving the issue, and which practical next step deserves attention first.

Infinx helps rural and critical access hospitals improve financial performance across patient access, revenue integrity, billing, and reimbursement. Our approach combines agentic AI platforms, automation, acute care consulting, and experienced specialists to deliver defined workflow outcomes within the systems your teams already use.

Find hidden revenue leakage

Identify missed charges, coding gaps, incomplete documentation, and processes that have drifted over time. Infinx helps teams validate revenue opportunities, prioritize corrective action, and build a practical roadmap that addresses both recovery and prevention.

Prevent avoidable denials

Strengthen eligibility, prior authorization, medical necessity, documentation, and claims workflows before issues reach the payer. AI agents execute bounded tasks with guardrails, automation completes repeatable actions, and specialists resolve exceptions that require judgment or payer follow-up.

Create capacity without adding complexity

Keep claims, payment posting, denials, appeals, and A/R follow-up moving with clearer ownership and exception-based workflows. Leaders gain better visibility into bottlenecks and priorities while staff can focus on work that requires local knowledge, patient context, and human expertise.

The goal is not another disconnected tool or generic transformation project. It is a focused operating model that helps rural hospitals protect earned revenue, reduce rework, and make better use of limited resources.
