The healthXchange, provider of educational content and community-building for patient access and revenue cycle executives, announced today that Hummingbird Healthcare will take on the headliner sponsor position for the upcoming digital event, “Patient Access Excellence: Standard Processes, Comprehensive Scheduling, Technology Enablement.” This virtual event will take place on Tuesday, November 12th from 12pm – 3pm ET.
This marks a second collaboration between the healthXchange and Hummingbird, following their successful partnership during the “Patient Access: Foundation of the Revenue Cycle” meeting in February 2024.
As the headliner sponsor, Hummingbird will play a pivotal role in shaping the meeting agenda and delivering valuable insights to attendees. The opening keynote panel will focus on developing robust governance models and enterprise standards in patient access. Leading this panel, Hummingbird executives will share best practices and lessons learned in building strong foundations for patient access operations, a critical component of the overall patient experience.
Hummingbird will also share practical use cases for leveraging automation in patient access, and discuss strategies and benefits of standardization and centralization of patient access operations.
Kate Jeter, Founder of the healthXchange expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, noting that:
“Hummingbird Healthcare is the ideal partner for the healthXchange as we look to build on a successful series of online meetings for patient access executives eager to improve access operations. Hummingbird’s approach to partnering with hospitals and health systems to build systems and processes as well as maximizing existing technology is exactly what our attendees are looking to learn.”
Justin Jozwik, Head of Growth for Hummingbird added:
“It’s a pleasure to support healthXchange events as part of our mission to elevate patient access and create good jobs. Sharing lessons learned across health systems benefits patients, providers, and their communities, and we look forward to engaging with forward-thinking patient access leaders from across the country to discuss one of the biggest challenges in healthcare.”
The Patient Access Excellence conference brings together access leaders from hospitals and health systems across the nation for a half-day of online sessions featuring panel discussions, case study analysis, group discussions, and networking, all in a single, easy-to-use platform. Issues being addressed in this iteration of the meeting include the development of strong foundations through well constructed governance structures, effective use of automation and centralized scheduling – where it works, and call center enablement which delivers rapid access to coordinated care.
The virtual format of this educational meeting allows for widespread participation from executives across the country, eliminating time and geographical barriers, creating a platform for knowledge share and networking. To attend the meeting, register via the event website link here.
