Healthcare Revenue Cycle & Operations Consulting

I fix the operations
problems hospitals
live with.

Fractional and project-based consulting for healthcare organizations on denial prevention, front-end revenue cycle, Epic Cadence/Radiant workflows, and multi-site operations. Nearly 20 years inside a health system, now available by the hour or by the project.

Where I help

Four areas where operators get stuck

Most of these problems don't need a full-time hire to fix – they need someone who has already solved them, for a few weeks or a few hours a month.

Denial prevention & recovery

Denial audits, root-cause analysis by payer, and front-end workflow redesign – pre-authorization, eligibility, medical necessity screening. Recovered ~$10M in wrongly denied claims in-house.

Epic Cadence & Radiant optimization

Epic Credentialed Trainer. Workflow builds, scheduling template redesign, and staff training for Cadence and Radiant – the parts of an Epic rollout that get rushed and cause downstream denials.

Multi-site operations build-out

Staffing models, FTE allocation, SOP documentation, and front-office workflow standardization across ambulatory or imaging sites reporting to one leadership team.

ADR / RAC / OIG audit response

Appeals strategy and documentation support for Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payer audits, drawing on a decade of complex appeals work.

How we'd work together

Three ways to engage

Pick the format that matches the problem. Every engagement starts with a short call to scope the actual issue before any hours are quoted.

One-time audit
Denial trend review, Epic workflow assessment, or front-office process audit with a written findings report.
Fixed scope
Project engagement
Implement the fix – rebuild a scheduling workflow, stand up a denial-prevention program, prep an audit response.
Hourly, project-based
Ongoing fractional support
A few hours a month as an outside set of eyes on revenue cycle metrics, Epic changes, or ops decisions.
Monthly retainer
