Matt prides himself on being on the right side of healthcare, routinely taking on the big issues in high-stakes cases.

Matt has experience with practically every aspect of the business of healthcare and revenue cycle management, including private and public payor reimbursement methodologies, IDR regulations, payor disputes, audits, third-party cost containment, healthcare marketing, overpayments and recoupments, pre-payment reviews, audits, financing, government relations, regulatory compliance, and licensing.

He has successfully resolved countless reimbursement disputes with commercial payors such as Aetna, Anthem, AmeriHealth, Ambetter, Beacon, Centene, HealthNet, Humana, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, HealthNet, Magellan, and many Blue Cross Blue Shield entities and Blue Card Network plans.
