Education and Training for New Hires

Objective

To ensure that CUIMC clinicians, billing personnel, consultants, contractors (collectively, “billing personnel”), revenue cycle staff and administrative personnel receive timely billing compliance training.

Policy

New CUIMC clinicians, new supervisors of CUIMC clinicians, new billing personnel, and new administrative personnel are required to receive billing compliance training within thirty days of hire or engagement. This requirement is fulfilled by a New Hire Training session online via Columbia University training platform. New CUIMC clinicians and billing personnel will not be permitted to use the central billing system until they have completed this training.
