REVENUE CYCLE EXCELLENCE: DENIALS MITIGATION
Tuesday, September 26, 2023
As rates of payer denials have continued to trend upward, revenue cycle teams are reimagining denial management in order to proactively identify causes of denials, to manage denials and appeals through cross-functional collaboration, and to ultimately reduce denial rates through continuous improvement and monitoring. Join us for this live, online program, to discuss and benchmark best practices with peers, to look hear how others are successfully navigating a challenging environment, to ultimately reduce payer denials through strong workflows, comprehensive documentation and proactive monitoring.
