Great information on how Critical Access Hospitals and Rural Hospitals can improve revenue capture by making sure that their Chargemaster is in order and you are capturing all your eligible charges appropriately to ensure you get paid for the services you are providing! RIM Resources is your vendor of choice to help find that lost revenue! Vonda Kay Walters and her team have made it their mission to help providers succeed in this ever changing industry, where we are constantly battling against new challenges! I can assure you that anyone who invests in this service will see a positive return on their investment!

Dr. Nash is passionate about rural healthcare and eager to learn more about healthcare finance and how she and BCBS can help our hospitals build partnerships in communities across the state. I learned something new every time she presented at the P.I.G. Trail to OneHFMA! Thank you, Dr. Nash! #arhfma

Dr. Nash did a great job and I am excited about the future of women’s health opportunities in rural Arkansas! Thank you Arkansas HFMA for sharing this information with us!
