The VP of finance and revenue cycle at PMHA outlines eight keys to success when implementing technology.
When budgets are tight, leaders need to be strategic when investing in technology. Because cost efficiency is so important, revenue cycle leaders need to make sure there is a substantial ROI when considering technology.
