The machine of revenue cycle has been built over decades to deliver reliability in operations. After all, revenue cycle is the cash lifeblood of any provider organization. In that time, revenue cycle teams have leveraged the capabilities of the EHR and looked to operational transformation to drive efficiency. The industry is now at the cusp of a new break in revenue cycle, where AI and RPA will accelerate RCM tasks exponentially. Every process, from the front end to back end, gets faster. The new revenue cycle team will need to transition to dynamic roles that support patients and providers. This HealthLeaders Mastermind Panel will seek to identify health systems at the forefront of revenue cycle transformation and to share learned best practices with an industry in transition.
Among the topics:
Clinical workflow efficiency and enhanced CDI.
Technology advancements and integration.
Workforce shortages and transition to new functions.

The New Care Team – The shortage of physicians will only get worse even as the rise of advance practice providers fills the gaps. The practice of nursing is advancing, with nurse-led care teams taking on more care responsibility. Traditional physician and nursing roles are being rethought as providers look to a future of increased utilization and smaller care teams. Where are the intersections and new directions? In this Mastermind program, HealthLeaders will gather the innovators who are testing new ways for clinical team members to increase both quality and financial efficiency, while also meeting the recruiting and retention must-haves of a new generation of clinicians.
Driving Digital – Creating access, improving patient experience, lowering delivery costs, and extending care into the home are just a few of the many benefits of digital transformation. For many health systems, the benefits remain out of reach, as providers struggle with budgeting, interoperability and workforce barriers that have slowed transformation. In this Mastermind program, we will seek out leading systems who have fought past the stall to create new digital pathways that improve the health of patients and their communities, while also delivering back measurable efficiencies to the healthcare organization.
