Webinar: Bringing Healthcare Finance into the Digital Age

As health systems have invested heavily in patient-facing technologies to meet the significant surge in virtual care demand, it has become evident that finance and back-office tools must also advance to fully bring health systems into the digital future. In this time of rapid, unpredictable change, it is critical that healthcare leaders have real-time transparency into their financial health and are able to analyze the potential impact of transformational business decisions. It’s more important than ever that administrative resources are being used effectively, and that executives can focus their time and leadership where it is most needed. 

During this webinar, we’ll discuss:  

• Using predictive analytics to drive insights into real-time costs
• Increasing efficiency through use of analytics and automation
• AI-powered financial analysis & team workflow
• Preparing your organization for episodic and value-based reimbursement
