Report finds that clients using multiple Waystar capabilities achieve the strongest outcomes, highlighting the value of a single, connected platform

LEHI, Utah and LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Waystar (Nasdaq: WAY), a provider of leading healthcare payment software, today announced that it earned an overall "A" satisfaction score among revenue cycle management (RCM) platform vendors in KLAS Research's inaugural Revenue Cycle Management Suites 2026 report. The study examines the experiences of "deep adopters," which KLAS defines as healthcare organizations using at least three distinct RCM technology solutions from a single vendor.

As healthcare organizations confront rising administrative costs and mounting payer complexity, end-to-end platforms provide a distinct advantage over disconnected point solutions. KLAS found that Waystar clients were the most likely to report lower cost-to-collect and improved collections performance, with 76%–100% of interviewed clients reporting those outcomes.

"Intelligent, connected platforms are shaping the future of the revenue cycle," said Matt Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer of Waystar. "Waystar's scale, differentiated proprietary data, and advanced AI capabilities connect workflows across the payment journey, so clients see more value with each solution they adopt. These findings reinforce the durability of our platform advantage and our ability to turn it into meaningful financial outcomes for providers."

More broadly, KLAS found that vendor consolidation and stronger vendor partnerships were the top reasons for adopting integrated RCM suites, with 57% of respondents citing each. Deep adopters also reported improved workflow efficiency and faster cash collections. Clients attributed these gains in part to integrations that streamline operations and enable them to work through a single, connected platform.

Waystar clients highlighted the company's partnership-oriented approach and its ability to continuously identify opportunities to improve revenue cycle workflows. Waystar also scored above the market average for both strategic partnership and continual suite improvement, reflecting the company's ability to drive innovation and value across its platform over time.
