She is very experienced with assessment systems and identifying problems that cause cash flow problems as well as identifying gaps in claims processing internally.

Angela creates and provides Regulatory compliance programs, policies, training related to management, billing, coding and cash flow & collections analysis. She is experienced in private and government audits and investigations, self disclosures and internal investigations and understands the importance of being proactive based on her experience.
Angela spent 12 years in corporate compliance with a durable medical equipment (DME) supplier. She rose from billing to compliance and for the final five years, served as the Compliance Officer for a large US DME company. Angela, with support of the executive team, improved cash flow by working closely with staff; provided specifically tailored training which ensured faster cash turnaround; and reduced audits and overpayments.
In January 2005, she started the company to work with healthcare providers in the same areas with about 80% of clients being defense cases, meaning a payer or government post payment audit/investigation. It is important to her to see providers be successful and this industry is difficult to really have successful and timely billing and collections.
