Chris Kirby

CEO - Executive Director Pinnacle Comprehensive Care

chris@carebypinnacle.com   -   (304) 241-2234

With over 35 years in the Healthcare Management industry, I have experienced many of the financial challenges faced by healthcare professionals. This led me from managing a multi-state medical practice to owning and operating a successful Medical Revenue Cycle Management company for the past 25 years. My focus is on overseeing the day-to-day operations of medical practices to ensure accurate, timely and compliant billing, coding, and collections; helping my clients grow revenue by using my extensive skills and knowledge of the insurance industry. The healthcare business is always changing, and as new situations and regulations arise, I stay informed about changes in medical policy, monitoring official government websites like HHS.gov, Medicare.gov and CMS.gov, as well as the medical policies of major insurance companies such as Aetna, BCBS, Elevance Health and United Healthcare. I am dedicated to staying current on the medical policies of Amniotic Allographs where it is crucial to understand the specific coverage guidelines so we can continue to improve outcomes for seniors who are most in need of our wound care services. I am excited to be a part of this team driven to significantly improve patient care and outcomes.
