We're thrilled to announce some exciting updates about several upcoming conferences. Over the next month, the aiHealth team will be actively engaged in attending, presenting, and participating in panel discussions at three significant conferences: the American Alliance of Orthopedic Executives Conference (AAOE), Georgia Healthcare Financial Management Association Conference (HFMA), and the Minnesota American Academy of Professional Coders Conference (AAPC). In this newsletter, we'll delve into the details of each conference, outlining what to expect and providing insights into the topics our aiHealth team members will be presenting on.
American Alliance of Orthopedic Executives Conference (AAOE):
The first event on this conference circuit is the American Alliance of Orthopedic Executives Conference (AAOE) in Chicago, Illinois from April 26th to April 29th. President, Kyle Swarts, and VP of Business Development & Strategy, Curtis Mayse, will not only be attending but also presenting.
Kyle and Curtis will be presenting on the topics of Mergers & MSOs for Orthopedic Groups, emphasizing the importance of fostering respectful relationships and a unified vision amid mergers or MSO alignments. Strategies like cultivating culture, aligning leadership, and effective consulting are crucial. Leaders should navigate mergers diligently, understanding ownership group needs and evaluating partners thoroughly. Successful mergers require recognizing significant changes, establishing the new entity as distinct, and fostering trust and openness. Embracing realistic expectations and proactive problem-solving helps orthopedic groups navigate complexities and ensure mutually beneficial outcomes.
Healthcare Financial Management Association Conference (HFMA):

This annual event aims to drive positive change in healthcare. Attendees will gain insights into current healthcare finance trends and challenges, as well as innovative leadership strategies.
Kyle Swarts will join a panel with Ascent Health Solutions at this upcoming conference, exploring the impact of autonomous coding on AI platforms and healthcare. They'll highlight its enhanced capabilities, precision, and efficiency, focusing on advanced models setting new industry standards. Quality assurance and compliance will also be highlighted as crucial aspects, ensuring adherence to coding standards and regulations for more accurate results. The discussion will also address risk mitigation, aligning practices with standards, and boosting productivity. Real-world examples and comparative analysis will showcase its benefits, aiming to empower coders to innovate and tackle complex tasks efficiently.
American Academy of Professional Coders Conference (AAPC):
The concluding event on this route is the Minnesota American Academy of Professional Coders Conference (AAPC), set for May 16th. Cynthia Sherman, VP of Product & Implementation at aiHealth, will be in person to attend and deliver a presentation, while Kyle Swarts, President, will be participating remotely. The conference is the premier gathering for healthcare professionals involved in medical coding, billing, compliance, and practice management.
The presentation explores AI adoption in medical coding, challenging the status quo in healthcare. It clarifies AI's role, from service calculators to autonomous coding, emphasizing the need for thorough understanding. Organizational readiness is highlighted, requiring C-suite support, investment, collaboration, and workflow adaptation. Insights from a large Midwest Orthopedic Practice Case Study are shared, stressing continuous improvement and ROI tracking. Policy and ethical considerations in AI implementation are addressed, including maintaining standards and auditing outputs.
