Patient Access:
Foundation of the revenue cycle | summer 2023
TUESDAY, JULY 18th, 2023
Following the success of the Patient Access: Foundation of the Revenue Cycle meeting hosted in the winter of 2023, the Summer program will continue to expand on topics of greatest concern to Patient Access and Front-End Revenue Cycle teams, including topics such as registration and eligibility verification, point-of-service collections, securing prior-authorization, delivering timely and accurate patient estimates, and continued compliance with the No Surprises Act.
With an industry-driven platform of speakers with decades of years of combined revenue cycle experience, this one-of-a-kind program provides insights into developing and prioritizing work queues, overcoming operational challenges in working with payers, and ultimately supporting patients in their healthcare financial journey.
