Automation ROI Calculator for Government and Healthcare

1. Pick a workflow

Choosing a card fills in the inputs below with typical starting numbers for that workflow. Every number is yours to change.

Government

Healthcare

The starting numbers on every card are an industry rule of thumb, built from BPM and RPA case studies and, for prior authorization, MGMA and AMA survey data. They are not a guarantee and not specific to your organization. Pete validates each one against real client data before it goes into a proposal. Change any field below to match your own operation.

2. Your numbers

These four drive the estimate. The calculator recalculates as you type.

Items per month Volume handled today, per month

Minutes per item today Staff time to fully handle one item now

Loaded hourly cost Fully loaded dollars per hour, wages plus benefits and overhead

Error or rework rate Percent of items that need rework today

Rework minutes per error item Extra minutes spent fixing one error today

Oversight percent Share of saved hours spent supervising the automation

One time transition hours Staff hours to set up and roll out, counted once, in year one only

Automation range, low to high percent

Share of handling time an automation typically removes

Error reduction range, low to high percent

Share of rework an automation typically removes

Monthly software cost, low to high dollars

Typical vendor pricing range for this workflow

3. Your estimated savings range

Showing results for permit processing. This is a range, not a single guess.

Most vendors show you the top number. We also show the costs. Software cost, oversight cost, and setup time are already subtracted below, not hidden in fine print.

Inputs used for this estimate

This is an estimate range built from your inputs and named default assumptions, not a quote and not a guarantee. It is not a substitute for a real workflow assessment.

Defaults for the fields you have not changed are labeled industry rules of thumb above, not proven results for your organization.
