BridgeFront has created two 6-credit college-level courses designed to prepare students for employment in healthcare registration and billing processes. Hospitals across the country struggle to hire, train, and retain qualified candidates in patient access and accounts positions. These courses are designed to boost students' skills and knowledge, preparing them for the job in just one semester.
