Help us celebrate these individuals on their accomplishments as they thrive with FinThrive!!

FinThrive offers a comprehensive suite of courses, assessments, labs/simulators, badges, certifications, and CE for licensed/registered revenue cycle staff. Not only does FinThrive help us grow and earn new credentials; FinThrive also helps improve Riverside revenue cycle outcomes (e.g. reducing denials).

What are badges? Badges are credentials you attain upon successfully passing a FinThrive exam. Badge exams allow staff to test out of material (no studying ahead of time). By testing first, you only complete classes on topics you don’t know and we find, when you complete the course and learn the content—most staff pass the test and earn their badge on the second test attempt.

What are Assessments? Assessments respects knowledge you have already. By completing an assessment first, you test out of material you know and will only be required to complete additional lessons on content you have not yet mastered. This, in turn, helps us assure a standard level of knowledge across team members in each of your departments to make our work easier and more efficient.

Each badge exam requires a passing score of 80% or greater and employees receive a badge certificate to display their professional accomplishments.
