Nobody explains this on your first day. These modules give you plain answers you can use with patients and coworkers. The last one helps you say out loud what you contribute, in a review or an interview.
A patient comes in
Someone in your community needs care today.
The visit is captured
Coverage checked, care documented, nothing missing.
It is billed correctly
The right payer, the right sliding-fee level, no wrong charge.
The clinic gets paid
That payment is most of what funds the health center.
The team stays staffed
Salaries, hours, and open appointment slots.
The doors stay open
So the next patient still has somewhere to go.
The loop repeats. Each strong step keeps the next one open. Understanding the money helps sustain the mission.
1. Who pays for all this?
The two buckets your center's money comes in
2. The visit is the engine
One visit, one payment — and what makes a visit count
3. The pharmacy that helps fund the clinic
The 340B drug discount program, in one picture
4. What your work is worth
Saying it out loud, in a review or an interview
Payment rules differ by payer and change over time, so check your clinic's policy before you act. This is a free course, not legal, clinical, or billing advice. Your completion record is not a license or CE credit.
Free, bilingual courses that pair well with this one.
