...Productivity Management MGT 133-3971 Final Project Process Summary Medical insurance billing and collecting is an integral service that is a part of any dental, chiropractic, medical office and hospital establishment. A medical professional typically is paid in one of three ways, by cash or by insurance or a combination of both. In order for the medical professional to be paid, it must have a medical biller/collector and other office support personnel. For this example, the office will have one medical physician with one biller/collector and one office assistant. The process begins with the assistant scheduling a patient for the physician. When the patient checks into the office the office assistant collects the copayment. Then the patient receives services by the physician. Next the biller/collector will bill the medical insurance company and finally the insurance pays the balance and the patient may or may not have an additional amount to pay.

...Internal and External Factors Latonia Parker MGT/230 April 13, 2015 Kensinger Internal and External Factors Planning, organizing, controlling and leadings are the four main functions of management, which are affected by internal and external factors. Internal factors are business events that happen within the corporations while external factors are business events are carried outside the actual corporation. Planning involves setting goals and outlines for the direction of the company. Organization happens as the company goes about achieving these goals that were planned. Leading is important to management because leaders are needed for success. The leaders of the company must train and motivate employees to reach the company goals.
