What Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Contributes To Cardinal Health

Practice Operations Management oversees the business and administrative operations of medical practices.

The Revenue Cycle Management manages a team focused on a series of clinical and administrative processes that healthcare providers utilize to capture, bill, and collect patient service revenue. The revenue cycle shadows the entire patient care journey and begins with patient appointment scheduling and ends when the patient’s account balance is zero.

Compliance & Quality

• Ensure all financial counseling activities comply with regulatory, payer, and organizational requirements

• Strong knowledge of insurance plans, oncology benefits, prior authorizations, and patient financial responsibility preferred
• Demonstrated ability to work directly with clinical teams in fast‑paced care environments
• Experience in a large MSO, multi‑site oncology practice, or complex specialty setting
• Familiarity with EHR and RCM systems (e.g., Epic, Aria/Mosaiq, OncoEMR, or similar)
• Deep understanding of oncology drug reimbursement models, including buy‑and‑bill, specialty pharmacy carve‑outs, and alternate funding pathways
• Knowledge of ASP, WAC, AWP, and other drug pricing methodologies and their impact on charge capture and margin
