Definition
RCM spans eligibility, coding, claims or patient invoices, denials, and payment posting. Specialty practices may not need a hospital RCM suite, but they still need clean handoffs from visit to money.
Practice management software should keep financial work attached to patient and appointment context so billers are not reconstructing sessions from memory.
