At Zotec, #innovation isn't an add-on — it's at the core of everything we do. Our technology transforms complexity into clarity, helping #providers navigate the #revenue #cycle with confidence. 💡
This is an important bi-partisan bill (in both the House and Senate) to reign in the recurring & constant levels of non-compliance with the #NoSurprisesAct payment provisions by the health plans. Recall that the plans are losing 80+% of their cases per CMS’ official statistics…

Those three flew that rocket to the Moon, and with Mike orbiting, Neil and Buzz walked on the surface 56 years ago today. One of the greatest achievements in all of history, it still inspires the world.
The headline is attention grabbing but also a bit misleading based on this piece. While there are many unanswered questions re: this rural health fund that was established in the OBBA, per the article 50% of the fund is to be distributed equally to the states. The other 50%…
