  • Support physician onboarding and integration into the CCM program.

Compliance & Quality Assurance

  • Stay current on CCM regulations, HIPAA, and clinical best practices.
  • Conduct audits and implement quality improvement initiatives.
  • Ensure documentation and billing practices align with CMS requirements.
