PMI is thrilled to announce that we have partnered with Foothills Medical Society (FMS) in a joint effort to provide affordable medical practice specific training and certification opportunities to its membership. This partnership supports the strong commitment of FMS to enhance the knowledge base of medical practice staff through education.
So often, providers and practice leadership are hard-pressed to find quality, localized, in-person or web-based educational opportunities for their team. As in many industries, the rules and regulations safeguarding the business of medicine are numerous and oft changing, especially those relating to and directly affecting reimbursement.
Training will begin in June with PMI’s popular Medical Practice Front Desk Success: How to Shine on the Front Line and Patient Collections/AR Management webinars.
In the Medical Practice Front Desk Success session, students will learn the complete scope of operations in the medical front office. The instructor will accentuate the quality of care on the front line as an important benchmark of the practice performance and success.
In the Patient Collections and A/R Management session which covers A/R as well as compliance and practice management efforts, students will learn to improve insurance data collection, eligibility verification, and patient communication to reduce payment problems that can crush the bottom line of the medical practice.
"We are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between Foothills Medical Society and the Practice Management Institute, a collaboration designed to empower our physician members through enhanced practice management and staff training. This partnership reflects our commitment to providing our members with the resources they need to excel in an ever-evolving healthcare landscape. By leveraging the Practice Management Institute's comprehensive training programs, our members can look forward to running more efficient, effective practices with teams that are equipped with the latest in healthcare management strategies. To further support our community, members will benefit from an exclusive 10% discount on programming fees. Together, we are setting the stage for a future where better trained staff lead to better patient outcomes and more successful practices." Stephen Boucher, FMS Executive Director
"Stephen really gets the importance of quality training, and is passionate about the success of his providers. We are thrilled to be partnering with him and FMS.” said PMI Vice President Michael Moore. “Our companies share a common mission to help medical office personnel stay on top of the latest industry changes, trends, and solutions.”
