Blair Baker

布莱尔·贝克

Baker brings more than 35 years of revenue cycle experience, from running patient access and patient accounting departments at hospitals to leading product, operations and delivery at high-growth RCM software companies, including companies he led through acquisitions by Optum and RelayHealth.

贝克拥有超过35年的收入周期管理经验，从在医院管理患者准入和患者核算部门，到在高增长的RCM软件公司负责产品、运营和交付，包括他领导的公司被Optum和RelayHealth收购的经历。

Unifying Operations and Scaling Procode AI

统一运营并扩展 Procode AI

Baker will lead two priorities:

贝克将主导两项优先事项：

Building unified, end-to-end RCM operations.

构建统一的端到端收入周期管理（RCM）运营体系。

Baker will consolidate the operations of Procode's acquired billing companies, beginning with The Auctus Group, into a single operating model spanning coding, billing, collections and client service.

贝克将把 Procode 收购的多家计费公司（以奥克图斯集团为首）的业务整合到一个统一的运营模型中，涵盖编码、计费、催收和客户服务。

Infusing Procode's in-house AI across operations.

将 Procode 的自研人工智能融入各项运营之中。

Baker will embed Procode's AI products — including Procode AI coding and Procollect, its operating system for billing teams — into every workflow to drive productivity and superior financial outcomes for clients.

贝克将把Procode的AI产品（包括Procode AI编程和专为计费团队打造的操作系统Procollect）嵌入到每一个工作流程中，以提升客户的生产力并实现更卓越的财务成果。

'Blair has done the exact job we need done, more than once,' said Jeff Cripe, CEO of Procode. 'He has taken early-stage RCM companies to successful exits, and he just spent the last few years at Optum building AI-first revenue cycle products at enterprise scale. Our strategy is to acquire the best surgical billing companies and make them better with AI.

“布莱尔已经不止一次地完成了我们亟需完成的工作，”Procode 首席执行官杰夫·克莱普表示。“他曾帮助多家处于早期阶段的收入周期管理（RCM）公司成功实现退出，并在过去几年中于 Optum 负责打造企业级规模的、以人工智能为先的收入周期产品。我们的战略是收购最优秀的 Surgical Billing 公司，并通过人工智能技术使其更上一层楼。”

Blair is the operator who will turn those companies into one platform and make sure our AI shows up in our clients' collections.'.

布莱尔是将把这些公司整合为一个平台的运营者，并确保我们的人工智能出现在客户的藏品中。

'I've spent my career on both sides of the revenue cycle — running hospital business offices and building the software they rely on,' said Blair Baker, Chief Operating Officer of Procode. 'Large health systems have seen real progress from AI and automation. Private practice surgeons deserve the same.

“我的职业生涯贯穿了收入周期的两端——既管理过医院的业务办公室，也开发过它们所依赖的软件。”Procode 首席运营官 Blair Baker 表示。“大型医疗系统已经从人工智能和自动化中取得了切实的进展。私人执业的外科医生也应享有同样的待遇。”

Procode has the rare combination of specialty expertise and AI built for the nuances of surgical coding. My job is to bring that together into one operation that fully captures reimbursements for our clients.'.

Procode 拥有专为手术编码的细微差别而打造的专业知识与人工智能的罕见组合。我的职责是将二者融合为一套统一的运营体系，从而为我们的客户实现报销收益的最大化。
