Written by Marty Callahan, with co-writers April Wilson and Casey Williams, this book offers a practical framework for transforming patient financial services into a true strategic advantage. Combining deep industry experience with actionable insights, it shows CFOs, revenue cycle executives, and healthcare administrators how to humanize the billing process while protecting margins.

Apply structured checklists and criteria to ensure outsourcing partners align with financial and patient-first goals. Measure the right metrics.
