Revenue Cycle Manager - Phoenix, AZ

We are hiring a Revenue Cycle Manager to lead physician billing and revenue cycle operations for an established outpatient physician practice in the Phoenix area. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who knows physician revenue inside and out, enjoys digging into the numbers, and can lead a team while speaking confidently with physicians about how the billing cycle is performing.

Overview & Highlights:

• Location: Phoenix, AZ
• Schedule: Full-time, Monday–Friday, normal business hours
• Compensation: $90,000–$110,000 per year
• Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision coverage; PTO and sick time; 401(k) with match
• Work Setting: Outpatient physician practice — revenue cycle and medical billing department

Location & Logistics:

• Work Environment: Professional administrative office supporting an established outpatient physician practice
• Department or Team: Revenue cycle / medical billing team, with direct supervisory responsibility
• Patient-Facing Responsibilities: Limited — this is an operations and financial leadership role; day-to-day interaction is primarily with physicians and internal staff
• Systems / EMR / Software: Athena EHR experience preferred; comfort with billing platforms, payer portals, and reporting tools expected
• Travel: None anticipated
• Reporting Structure: Leads the revenue cycle team and partners directly with physicians and practice leadership

About the Opportunity / A Day in the Life:

You own the physician revenue cycle end to end. A typical day moves between the numbers and the people: reviewing billing and collections performance, working through denials and aging, checking where claims are getting stuck, and deciding what the team should prioritize that week. You are the person who can look at a report and tell the difference between a coding issue, a front-end registration issue, and a payer issue — and then get the right fix moving.

The other half of the role is leadership and communication. You supervise and develop the billing team, set clear expectations, and coach people through complex claims and payer problems. You also sit down with physicians regularly to walk them through billing procedures, financial performance, and what is driving their revenue. Being able to translate revenue cycle detail into plain, useful language for a physician audience is one of the most important parts of this job.

Over time, you shape how the revenue cycle runs here. You will spot workflow inefficiencies, recommend process improvements, help establish standards and performance expectations, and use financial analysis to support operational decisions. There is real room to influence how this practice bills and collects, rather than simply maintaining someone else’s process.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Genuine ownership of physician revenue cycle operations, not a narrow slice of the billing process
• Direct access to physicians and practice leadership — your analysis and recommendations reach decision-makers quickly
• A leadership seat with a team to build, coach, and develop
• Stable Monday–Friday business-hours schedule with no travel
• On-site to start, with a path to hybrid or remote flexibility once you have established results
• Room to modernize workflows and put your own standards in place

What We’re Looking For:

• An experienced medical billing professional with deep, hands-on physician revenue experience
• Strong financial analysis skills — comfortable evaluating revenue cycle performance and explaining what the data means
• Confident, approachable leadership; someone who can hold a team accountable and still be someone people want to work for
• Clear communicator who can discuss billing processes and financial performance directly with physicians
• A problem-solver who chases root causes in the billing cycle instead of reworking the same claims repeatedly
• Organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable owning outcomes

Job Duties & Responsibilities:

• Oversee day-to-day physician revenue cycle and medical billing operations.
• Lead, support, and develop team members while promoting accountability and strong performance.
• Analyze financial and revenue cycle performance to identify trends, issues, and opportunities for improvement.
• Monitor billing processes and drive efficient, accurate revenue cycle operations.
• Communicate directly with physicians regarding billing processes, procedures, financial performance, and revenue cycle concerns.
• Translate complex billing and revenue information into clear, actionable information for physicians and team members.
• Identify workflow inefficiencies and recommend process improvements that support stronger revenue performance.
• Use financial analysis to support operational decisions and revenue cycle initiatives.
• Partner with physicians and internal team members to address billing questions and process challenges.
• Help establish and maintain effective revenue cycle workflows, expectations, and performance standards.
• Provide ongoing leadership, coaching, and guidance to the revenue cycle team.
• Support effective use of EHR and billing technology across the team.

Required Qualifications:

• 5–10 years of medical billing experience.
• Physician revenue experience is required.
• Minimum of 1 year of supervisory or leadership experience.
• Strong understanding of healthcare billing and physician revenue cycle operations.
• Strong financial analysis skills with the ability to evaluate revenue cycle performance.
• Demonstrated people management and team leadership ability.
• Experience communicating directly with physicians regarding billing processes and revenue cycle matters.
• Strong communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
• Able to work on-site in the Phoenix area during normal business hours.

Preferred Background:

• Athena EHR experience.
• Experience in an outpatient or specialty physician practice setting.
• Coding certification is helpful but is not required.
• Experience building or improving denial management, AR follow-up, or charge capture workflows.
• Background reporting revenue cycle performance to physicians or practice ownership.

This Role Is Likely a Fit If You…

• You already know physician revenue cycle work and do not need to be taught the fundamentals.
• You like owning both the numbers and the team that produces them.
• You are comfortable being the person physicians come to with billing and revenue questions.
• You would rather fix the process than keep reworking the same claims.
• You want a stable weekday schedule with real leadership responsibility.

This Role May Not Be a Fit If You…

• You prefer to focus on a single billing function rather than the full revenue cycle.
• You would rather not manage, coach, or hold people accountable.
• You are uncomfortable presenting financial performance directly to physicians.
• You are early in your billing career — this role expects several years of hands-on physician billing experience.

Why Join Us:

This is a key leadership seat in a practice where revenue cycle work is visible and valued. Your expertise, financial insight, and ability to lead people will have a direct impact on both operational and financial performance, and you will work closely with physicians and team members to strengthen billing processes and improve revenue outcomes.
