Revenue Cycle Management – #HITsm Chat Topic

We’re excited to share the topic and questions for this week’s #HITsm chat happening Friday, 7/1 at Noon ET (9 AM PT).  This week’s chat will be hosted by John Lynn (@techguy) from @hcittoday on the topic “Revenue Cycle Management

This week is the HFMA annual conference in Denver.  If you’ve followed the #HFMAAnnual hashtag, then you’ve no doubt seen us sharing a bunch of content from the conference.  If you want to understand some of the complexities associated with revenue in healthcare, this conference is the place to go.  Spending time with revenue cycle professionals is eye opening.

Given this event, I thought it would be fun to extend the conversation from the conference and talk about RCM (Revenue Cycle Management) on this week’s chat.  We hope many in the HFMA community will join us for the discussion and share your insights and perspectives into a wide variety of topics.

Join us for this week’s #HITsm chat where we’ll be discussing the following topics.

T1: Why does revenue cycle management only exist in healthcare and not other industries? Is it just a different name in other industries? #HITsm #HFMAAnnual
