Revenue Cycle Operations Manager

Job Description

Job Description

At Tend, we do dentistry differently — and that includes how we run our revenue cycle. The RCM Operations Manager plays a critical role in translating revenue cycle strategy into day-to-day execution by owning the operational performance of eligibility, billing, payment posting, insurance and patient AR, and credits and balancing. This role is a hands-on operational leader who partners closely with Operations, Member Experience, and IT to ensure revenue cycle systems, workflows, and controls are working as designed — delivering accurate billing, strong cash flow, and a seamless, high-trust member experience.

What You'll Do

• Own the end-to-end operational performance of core revenue cycle functions
• Serve as a key operational partner to Operations, Member Experience, and Engineering to ensure revenue cycle workflows align with studio operations and member-facing processes
• Lead the implementation and optimization of RCM systems, tools, and workflow changes, ensuring strong adoption and operational readiness
• Develop, maintain, and enforce standard operating procedures that drive consistency, accuracy, and scalability across the revenue cycle
• Monitor operational performance and key revenue cycle KPIs, identifying risks, trends, and opportunities to improve cash flow and reduce member friction
• Partner with IT and Engineering teams to define requirements, test enhancements, and resolve system issues impacting revenue cycle outcomes
• Identify breakdowns and inefficiencies across eligibility, billing, posting, AR, and credits; drive root-cause analysis and corrective action
• Support automation and process improvement initiatives that reduce manual work, improve accuracy, and enable scale
• Coach, support, and develop team members to ensure high-quality execution and accountability

• Embrace Our Differences: You listen to and respect the perspectives of studio teams, field leaders, and RCM partners, using those insights to create solutions that work across diverse environments.
• Be Brave Enough to Lead: You're willing to surface problems, challenge ineffective processes, and advocate for better ways of working — even when it's uncomfortable.
• Savor the Ride: You bring energy and positivity to change initiatives, helping teams stay motivated, connected, and committed through transitions.
• Rooted in Growth: You seek feedback, reflect on your impact, and continuously evolve your approach to be more effective as a leader and partner.

Role-Based Competencies

• Move with Purpose: You take initiative in the field, stepping in quickly to support studios during system changes, solve problems in real time, and keep implementations moving forward.
• Create Clarity and Direction: You organize complex rollouts, training schedules, and multi-studio priorities in a way that gives teams confidence and keeps everyone moving toward the same outcomes.
• Make It Make Sense: You translate systems, workflows, and expectations into clear, practical guidance that studios and RCM teams can easily understand and apply.

What You Have

• 6+ years of experience in revenue cycle management, including hands-on expertise in eligibility, billing, posting, insurance AR, patient AR, and credit balance resolution
• Proven experience managing or overseeing revenue cycle operations in a multi-location healthcare or dental environment
• Strong understanding of how revenue cycle workflows intersect with studio operations and member experience
• Experience partnering cross-functionally with Operations, Member Experience, IT, and Finance.
• Demonstrated ability to develop, implement, and maintain SOPs that drive consistency and operational excellence
• Experience supporting system implementations, enhancements, or automation initiatives within the revenue cycle
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to use data to identify risks and improvement opportunities
• Clear, confident communicator who can explain complex workflows and system behavior in a practical, approachable way
• Highly organized, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams and priorities in a dynamic, growth-oriented environment
