Revenue Cycle Operations Manager

At Tend, we do dentistry differently — and that includes how we run our revenue cycle. The RCM Operations Manager plays a critical role in translating revenue cycle strategy into day-to-day execution by owning the operational performance of eligibility, billing, payment posting, insurance and patient AR, and credits and balancing. This role is a hands-on operational leader who partners closely with Operations, Member Experience, and IT to ensure revenue cycle systems, workflows, and controls are working as designed — delivering accurate billing, strong cash flow, and a seamless, high-trust member experience.

What You’ll Do

• Own the end-to-end operational performance of core revenue cycle functions
• Serve as a key operational partner to Operations, Member Experience, and Engineering to ensure revenue cycle workflows align with studio operations and member-facing processes
• Lead the implementation and optimization of RCM systems, tools, and workflow changes, ensuring strong adoption and operational readiness
• Develop, maintain, and enforce standard operating procedures that drive consistency, accuracy, and scalability across the revenue cycle
• Monitor operational performance and key revenue cycle KPIs, identifying risks, trends, and opportunities to improve cash flow and reduce member friction
• Partner with IT and Engineering teams to define requirements, test enhancements, and resolve system issues impacting revenue cycle outcomes
• Identify breakdowns and inefficiencies across eligibility, billing, posting, AR, and credits; drive root-cause analysis and corrective action
• Support automation and process improvement initiatives that reduce manual work, improve accuracy, and enable scale
• Coach, support, and develop team members to ensure high-quality execution and accountability
