    &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#005826"&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(136, 136, 136);"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#005826" face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Speaker:&amp;nbsp; Matt DenHartog&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;

  &lt;blockquote&gt;
    &lt;p style="line-height: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#005826"&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(136, 136, 136);"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Tahoma" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#005826"&gt;AI in RCM - Navigating the Slop to Find Real Returns&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;Everyday, healthcare leaders are inundated with new AI technologies that claim to automate&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;parts of the healthcare ecosystem. There is a lot of real promise in what these companies are&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;proposing, but it is a saturated market that has very little clarity on what technologies can&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;perform to stay ahead of patient expectations, margin pressures, payers, labor shortages and&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;“competing” providers.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;The goal of this session will be to help frame the AI opportunity in RCM that helps attendees&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;drive faster and more meaningful returns on AI investments.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;● Why RCM is ripe for AI, and why it isn’t&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;● Deciding where to use AI next&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;● Evaluating vendors and partners - new and current&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;Matt hopes that attendees will leave more confident and excited for how RCM AI technologies&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;will benefit staff, patients, the bottom line, and leaders.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong style="font-family: Tahoma;"&gt;&lt;font color="#005826"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#005826" face="Tahoma"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#888888" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" face="Arial"&gt;Bio&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;Matt has been in healthcare almost his entire career. He spent almost 18 years in the medical&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;device industry calling on providers, hospitals and health systems before moving into the&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;healthcare software industry focused on communications and RCM. He currently serves as the&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;Strategic Account Director for Collectly and lives in the Des Moines area.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;Matt first started to understand the impact of RCM challenges and complexities when working&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;alongside schedulers and billers to create access to new, life changing medical treatments. It’s&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;that experience that gives him a passion for solving inefficiencies, poor revenue performance,&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;and confusing patient experiences.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
