Of particular note for you and the team members as you consider this placementare my strong accomplishments in reducing outstanding balances and reorganizingaccounting functions to achieve improved internal operating efficiency andimproved cash flow throughout.
Consider the following:
* Reduced A/R days from 110 to 58.9.
* Reduced staff by 7.5 FTEs with concurrent increase in total departmentalperformance.
* Reduced patients complaints
* Improved cash flow by $2.3 million monthly.
Additionally, my contributions have been achieved through improved informationflow within the patient financial services function, improving patientfinancial services utilization of available MIS services, and improvingcooperation between patient services and the admissions desk, UR and medicalrecords functions.
After 10 years in client accounting, I have a varied understanding of everydepartment concerned with this function in a modern medical center setting. Mycurrent employer is delighted with my performance, but I view myself as atroubleshooter as well, and most of the reorganizations initiated here havecome to fruition, so I am eager to consider new ventures and challenges.
