Healthcare finance leaders head to Virginia Beach with urgent decisions.

The Virginia-Washington DC Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) 2026 Fall Conference runs September 30-October 2 at the Hilton Virginia Beach Oceanfront. HFMA describes its chapter as a network for knowledge-sharing, professional development, and preparation for regulatory, technology, and care-model change. That makes the conference a timely setting for finance and revenue cycle leaders to compare how they are protecting cash, capacity, and patient access while operating pressure remains high.

Move the conversation from symptoms to causes.

Mark Workinger, Vice President, New Client Growth, Vee Healthtek, will attend the Virginia-DC HFMA 2026 Fall Conference. Connect with him to compare where rework is consuming capacity, which first-pass controls can protect earned revenue, and how open accountability can make prevention, ownership, and financial impact visible. Bring the performance contradiction that is hardest to explain, such as strong claim acceptance with weak reimbursement, rising cash alongside rising labor, or better denial recovery without fewer denials.

Four conversations can connect operational performance to financial results.

Claim acceptance can conceal reimbursement leakage. 

Claim acceptance confirms that a payer received the claim, not that the organization received the correct amount. Compare expected and actual reimbursement to identify underpayments, contract variances and recurring payment errors that denial reports may miss because the payer accepted, adjudicated and paid the claim.

Cash gains matter less when labor costs rise with them. 

Higher collections can appear positive while the labor required to produce them continues to grow. Trace repeat touches, manual exceptions and downstream rescue work to their upstream sources, then determine which controls could eliminate avoidable work and create more scalable, sustainable improvements in cash performance.

Strong recovery should reduce the need for future recovery. 

Denial recovery protects revenue, but lasting improvement requires preventing the same defects from recurring. Connect denial patterns to patient access, eligibility, prior authorization, documentation and coding so leaders can identify the original failure, establish ownership and reduce dependence on increasingly expensive downstream intervention.

Technology should eliminate work, not reorganize it. 

Automation creates value when it removes a manual exception rather than transferring it into another queue. Define the work that should disappear, the information the technology needs and the controls that will monitor accuracy, ownership and financial impact after the new workflow enters production.
