• Billing: charging Medicare, health funds, the TAC, WorkSafe and patients.
• Receipting: taking in and banking payments.
• Debt management: following up and reducing what's still owed.

You'll lead two team leaders and around 10 staff across the Private Patient Liaison and Patient Accounts teams. You'll also oversee billing done in clinical areas outside Finance.

Day to day, you'll:

• Reduce aged debt and debtor days.
• Manage MBS changes and keep fee schedules current.
• Own billing business rules and system changes.
• Work with clinical directors and operational leaders to find revenue that would otherwise be missed.

• Billing system upgrades or collection agency tenders delivered

The Environment
