Kristine Eckis is President of The Bottom Line Medical Administrative Consultants, Inc., a practice management firm based in North Florida. She currently serves on the Board of the American Association of Healthcare Consultants and has been a Certified Professional Coder since 1996.
With over 30 years of combined legal and medical experience, Kristine consults with medical practices nationwide providing evaluations and recommendations for operational and staffing improvements in order to bring practices up to peak performance. Evaluations focus on accounts receivable management, proper coding and compliance issues for optimal reimbursement and the avoidance of potential fraud and abuse actions.
Additional services provided by Bottom Line include practice management and coding seminars, both on and off-site, as well as chart audits, human resource development, and complete practice start-ups. Coding assistance and consultation services are available online for those times when practices need a "quick-fix" rather than an extensive consultation.
