Regent Revenue Cycle Management (Regent RCM), a leading provider of cost-effective billing and collection services for ambulatory surgery centers in the United States, today announced Luz Renteria has been promoted to Revenue Cycle Supervisor.
“Luz has been a great asset to our team since she began working with us and this promotion is well-deserved,” said Michael Orseno, Vice President of Revenue Cycle at Regent RCM. “As a 15-year veteran of the healthcare industry, she brings a wealth of experience to her role and she continues to move the needle and add value to our surgery center partners. We look forward to her continued contributions and success.”
Renteria joined Regent RCM in 2015 as a Revenue Cycle Specialist, and was responsible for the charge entry, billing, and collections for a surgery center in the Southeast. While she served in this role, the center’s days in accounts receivable dropped to the lowest in its history. In addition, she collected over $1 million during August 2016, which is the highest amount ever collected during the ASC’s history. As a supervisor, Renteria will lead a team of specialists who are each responsible for a center of their own. Additionally, she will be conducting business office audits for current and prospective clients.
“I am pleased to serve in this new role alongside my fantastic team, and look forward to contributing to the growth of Regent RCM,” said Renteria. “My goals for this position are to exceed the metrics for our team, and to maintain the high standard of excellence that our company is known for.”
Renteria began her career on the payer side as a data entry specialist for a Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois fund office. She then transitioned to the provider side a decade ago, and most recently managed a patient accounts office for University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System in Chicago.
