The Healthcare Financial Management Association added Cerner to its organization June 25.
Here are three things to know about the addition:
1. By joining HFMA, 1,231 of Cerner's associates will gain membership benefits. More members are expected to join in the coming months. Membership benefits include access to online education, research reports and white papers, as well as opportunities for discounted conference attendance.
2. HFMA membership was previously limited to individuals. However, now organizations can join HFMA and gain resources aimed at improving operating results.
3. "As the industry continues to shift to value-based care and payments, we need to provide our associates with access to timely information and resources to help them advance their knowledge and expertise in the revenue cycle," Jeff Hurst, Cerner's senior vice president of revenue cycle management and president of Cerner RevWorks, said in a statement.
