Director of Implementation Services
Cedar has built a platform that uses technology to connect patients with healthcare providers in a way that helps solve the critical challenges of patient billing and payment. Our technology improves the overall experience of patient billing and engagement, enabling providers to thrive in a rapidly changing environment while helping patients understand and manage the cost of their care.
The Client Implementations team is a core function of the Cedar organization. They are responsible for ensuring our new provider clients move from 0 to 1 on the Cedar platform.
