“Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise.” The basic process of billing in your practice revenue cycle is the foundation of a successful practice. This webinar will provide tools and resources to develop the necessary foundation for understanding and creating a successful billing process in your practice. Minimize denials, decrease AR, increase successful claims payments, and patient payments and learn new ways to add efficiencies to your current billing process. Understanding and implementing an efficient billing process in your practice leads to a successful revenue cycle. Missing even one step in the billing process can result in dire consequences for your practice— significant reimbursement reductions, increased denials, overpayments/recoupments, refunds, and ultimately audits that lead to massive fines and penalties.
This webinar will provide actionable tips that can help you bring in more of the reimbursement your practice is due. We will outline every step along the way in the billing and collections process, so you will walk away with the ability to bring in more of the reimbursement your practice is due. Whether you are a solo employee at a single provider practice, or you work at a large practice, this online training can help you improve the success of your billing process.
