Learn How to Create an Effective SNF Revenue Cycle Management System
This training applies to SNF members.
AHCA offers a five-module online training program titled Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Academy which offers training about a holistic interdisciplinary approach toward revenue management. RCM can be implemented in a building, more broadly or as an organization-wide approach to enhance revenue by minimizing losses from payments that too often are unnecessarily lost or overlooked.
Today’s business environment makes collecting receivables more difficult for skilled nursing providers than ever before. The ever increasing number of third party payers, more complex Medicare payer rules, Medicaid changes, and evolving consumer attitudes toward health care expenses all combine to make timely and accurate payment for services an ongoing challenge that requires a cross-functional team approach to effectively manage.
RCM Academy offers the information and tools necessary for skilled nursing provider facilities to understand and implement systems that lead to high-functioning revenue cycle management (RCM) teams. This training delivers the information, practical tools, and approaches necessary for team members to apply their RCM knowledge and implement daily processes that maximize revenue and minimize avoidable losses.
The first RCM Academy learning modules cover topics which include:
- An RCM overview and attributes of high performing teams
- Systems to assure proper and timely payment
- Best practices for managing different payor sources
To bolster the learning experience, the RCM Academy also includes bonus webinars profiling providers’ real-life experiences running effective RCM programs. Additional webinars and resources will be developed throughout the year.
While the billing office plays a vital role in RCM, effective RCM requires a team approach involving a broad array of staff disciplines. AHCA recommends that all skilled nursing facility administrators, assistant administrators, DONs, ADONs, MDS coordinators, nurse leaders, admissions staff and billing office personnel enroll in AHCA’s RCM Academy to provide a cohesive and comprehensive organizational understanding of revenue management.
