The RCI Task Force is a group consisting of representatives from providers, financial institutions, payers, mobile technology companies, retail clinics, revenue cycle vendors, healthcare consultants and other professional associations, according to the HIMSS website. The group focuses on tools and strategies designed to improve revenue cycle processes.

4. HCS CEO Hans Zandhuis said of the partnership: "Healthcare industry revenue practices are incredibly complex and, many times, drive already stressed consumers into a state of overwhelming frustration and exhaustion. The industry recognizes the patient payment experience is broken and is coming together via the HIMSS RCI Task Force to create a vision for the next generation of revenue cycle management."
