The Bottom Line in Spine: Cataletto to Teach the Business of Running a Practice

March 1, 2013 - PRLog -- New York and Texas…………Barbara Cataletto, President and CEO of Business Dynamics Inc. will teach workshops at the Pre-course for the 2013 Annual Meeting of The International Society for the Advancement of Spine Surgery this April in Vancouver, Canada.

This Pre-course will focus on what the spine specialist needs to know to be successful in today’s economy.  Barbara will discuss the importance of business strategies, billing, compliance, developing a business plan, medical records and staffing.

“When people ask me how to be successful in the spine industry, or any industry for that matter, I’m reminded of a quote from Tom Landry, former Dallas Cowboys Coach.  ‘I don’t believe in team motivation. I believe in getting a team prepared so it knows the necessary confidence when it steps on the field and be prepared to play a good game,”’  said Cataletto. “The surgeon may indeed be the coach of the team, but in order to be truly successful in maximizing his reimbursement he needs a strong, educated and dedicated team working with him, taking his lead”, concluded Cataletto.

With a career that has spanned more than 25 years in the spine industry, Barbara, the nation’s subject matter expert in spine coding and reimbursement is the perfect choice for this important program.  Barbara is also a member of the ISASS Coding Task Force where she has the distinction of being one of four non-surgeons to sit on this task force.

“We are pleased to have Barbara present this program” said Kristy Radcliffe, Executive Director of the International Society for the Advancement of Spine Surgery (ISASS). “I doubt there is anyone in the industry that can come close to her knowledge in this area, we are pleased she has agreed”, concluded Radcliffe.

In addition to being the nation’s subject matter expert, Barbara Cataletto is the President and CEO of Business Dynamics Inc., which includes its affiliates Business Dynamics- RCM and The Business of Spine.  Business Dynamics RCM is the nation’s leading full service revenue cycle management firm serving the spine industry, The Business of Spine was developed to fill the void for education in the spine industry offering a variety of educational and consulting tools, all designed to enhance skills of the reimbursement specialist and the spine professional.
