Effective revenue cycle performance increasingly depends on strategic, proactive planning, and collaboration with payers. Strategic Revenue Cycle Workplan Design for High-Impact Payer Engagement is designed for healthcare financial leaders seeking to strengthen operational efficiency, reduce friction in reimbursement, and improve cash flow reliability. This session provides a practical framework for building, executing, and sustaining a comprehensive revenue cycle workplan that aligns RCM performance with payer contracting best practices. The presenters each bring a unique perspective of denial management, coding/documentation optimization and payer contracting best outcomes. Participants will explore methods for diagnosing root causes of denials and payment delays, structuring payer-specific action plans, establishing performance coding and data analytic metrics, along with aligning internal teams to drive measurable results. Through real-world examples and actionable tools, leaders will learn how to turn payer engagement into a predictable, data-driven component of a Revenue Cycle Strategic Plan. This session will be highly interactive, featuring peer-to-peer learning opportunities. Participants will engage in hands-on activities and case studies, allowing them to apply the concepts learned to real-world scenarios.
