Featured Session: The No Surprises Act and Revenue Recovery: What Healthcare Finance Leaders Need to Know

You have already done the hard part. Your team delivered the care. Now it is time to get paid for it.

The No Surprises Act created a federal arbitration system built to level the playing field between providers and insurers. Most healthcare finance leaders are not using it. Not because it does not work. Because no one has shown them how.

In this session, Fernando Valencia, Chief Revenue Officer at Callagy Recovery and the strategic force behind nearly two billion dollars in medical revenue recovery, pulls back the curtain on the law, the process, and the playbook. You will learn how to navigate the Independent Dispute Resolution process, identify where reimbursement is slipping through the cracks, and build workflows that turn revenue leakage into revenue certainty without overhauling your existing operations.

Presented by: Fernando Valencia, Chief Revenue Officer, Callagy Recovery Corporation 

Fernando J. Valencia is a nationally recognized authority on the No Surprises Act and federal Independent Dispute Resolution, dedicated to protecting independent physicians from systemic underpayment. As leader of Operation Medical Independence, he has worked directly with state and national medical associations and met with members of Congress to advocate for stronger enforcement. Founder of the Callagy Institute of Doctorpreneurs, Fernando translates complex federal policy into executable frameworks physicians can act on. An immigrant entrepreneur who built a million-dollar business by twenty-one, he is a committed ally to independent medicine.

12:00 PM-1:00 The Financial Return on Authenticity

When promises made from how a healthcare organization communicates its purpose, capabilities, and guiding values are fulfilled through tangible experiences, the result is a competitive advantage of authenticity that increases patient satisfaction, strengthens loyalty, attracts new business, and improves employee engagement for a stronger bottom line.

In fact, authenticity achieved from patients and employees experiencing who you say you are generates the most valuable currency in business - Trust. 



This presentation will demonstrate how realizing the economic benefits of authenticity requires operationalizing the messages a healthcare organization uses to differentiate itself in the market and how holding itself accountable is critical to building and safeguarding trust.
