Advance Practice Forum with Ryan Cooper

What if your practice isn't losing revenue because your team is failing but because the payer's system is simply better organized? In this episode of The Snapscale Show, Nathan Bush sits down with Ryan Cooper, founder of Plural Consulting, to unpack the hidden challenges behind revenue cycle management and what he calls “revenue defense.” Ryan brings a unique perspective to the conversation. After spending 16 years in healthcare, operating multiple healthcare entities, managing clinical and administrative teams, handling billing, credentialing, enrollment, prior authorizations, and implementing EMR systems, he experienced firsthand what happens when revenue gets held up and how it can threaten an otherwise well-run healthcare organization.
