Published May 21, 2024
The Patient Relations department assesses and resolves complex patient issues related to customer service, billing, and patient care daily by researching errors and patient issues and finding the proper solution to satisfy the needs of the patient and their care partners.

Learning Objectives:
– Review of Part 1
