    Healthcare providers have seen a steadily rising tide of claim denials in recent years, posing a daunting challenge that results in many denials never being reworked. In this presentation, industry experts will review the current denial trends for revenue cycle managers and detail a balanced, proactive approach to denials management that incorporates the right technology, processes and people to drive positive outcomes. The speakers will explore a case study of effectively leveraging technology and services in a hospital to successfully reduce denials by 30%.

    This 60-minute webinar will provide you with the knowledge to:

    • Discover the root cause of rising denials and common methodologies used in denials management
    • Use denials management technologies that are well-suited to specific organizational needs
    • Apply a denials management strategy that incorporates the right technology, process and professional staff
