In addition, the conference will include a welcome reception in the exhibit hall on Sunday night, giving business partners the opportunity to showcase their booth give-aways and services and a party on Monday night at the famous House of Blues. The Hollis Cobb team is offering special gifts to providers who are interested in visiting booth # 48 and spending 15 minutes to learn about the company’s patient access service offerings including pre-authorization, pre-certification, pre-registration, scheduling, price estimation and others. What happens on the front end impacts the back end, and Hollis Cobb has developed custom services for our clients to address challenges throughout the entire revenue cycle. The team is excited about networking with established clients and meeting new faces in the industry while at the conference.
