Rehabbing Your Revenue Cycle

A podcast for healthcare practice owners and leaders, as well as RCM leaders, focused on improving revenue cycle performance through better data, better systems, and better use of time. Each episode moves beyond collections and surface-level metrics to explore billing intelligence, operational complexity, patient payment systems, technology, compliance risk, and the data that actually drives cash flow, scalability, and long-term practice value.
