Master Advanced RCM & Medical Billing (Level 3 of 5): contracting, underpayments, coding, EDI, denials, A/R, leadership.
Course Description
Master advanced revenue cycle management (RCM) and medical billing for US healthcare. This course elevates your command of revenue cycle management, medical billing, AR management and A/R calling, prior authorization, advanced medical coding, enterprise payment posting, high-volume healthcare claims, and systemwide denial management. You’ll work directly with medical records to strengthen documentation and clean claims (CMS 1500, CMS 1450), align teams through leadership practices, and operationalize analytics and EDI workflows that move the needle on cash and compliance.
This course is designed to help experienced RCM professionals apply advanced strategies across payer contracting, pricing, documentation, EDI, and appeals—grounded in real operations, not theory. Whether you lead billing, coding, AR, payment posting, or revenue integrity, you’ll develop playbooks that scale from single practices to multi-site systems and MSOs.
You’ll engineer the revenue cycle from governance to zero balance: design revenue integrity controls, stand up prior auth programs for high-cost services, optimize coding tied to medical necessity, build clean claims with payer-specific edits, and automate EDI/ERA reconciliation. You’ll measure what matters—DNFB, clean-claim rate, first-pass yield, denial preventability, net collection rate—and drive predictable cash acceleration.
Designed for advanced learners, this program uses case studies, datasets, appeal templates, contract math, and KPI scorecards. You’ll leave with reusable frameworks, queries, and checklists you can deploy immediately.
