In this episode of Understanding Healthcare with Zack Kanter, Zack talks with Dr. Eric Bricker, an internal medicine physician and Chief Medical Officer at ‪AHealthcareZ, a popular YouTube channel focused on explaining how healthcare finance works.

In this episode, Eric and Zack break down revenue cycle management (RCM), the flow of money in U.S. healthcare.

They cover how healthcare plans are funded, how Medicare Advantage differs from traditional Medicare, how eligibility checks work, medical coding, and why what doctors bill insurers isn't what they're paid.
