Adonis, the revenue cycle intelligence and automation platform, named the 2026 RCM25 winners this year. The award recognizes the Top 25 RCM Leaders and Top 25 RCM Teams in healthcare. Now in its second year, the 2026 RCM25 shines a light on the professionals powering progress across revenue cycle management. The program is designed to recognize the individuals and teams that support one of the most important functions in healthcare finance.
This year’s honorees represent a wide range of healthcare organizations. The group includes major health systems, specialty practices, physician groups, and technology-enabled care organizations. The recognition also reflects the expanding importance of revenue cycle management. Healthcare organizations increasingly rely on strong RCM strategies to improve financial performance.
“Revenue cycle leaders are being asked to play a much more strategic role within healthcare organizations today. They’re navigating shifting payer behavior, persistent denial and underpayment pressure, and growing expectations to use technology to improve performance without adding operational burden,” said Akash Magoon, CEO and Co-Founder of Adonis. “The RCM25 gives us an opportunity to recognize the leaders and teams doing that work every day, and to celebrate the impact they are having across their organizations and the broader revenue cycle community.”
2026 RCM25 Highlights Revenue Cycle Leadership
This year, thirteen organizations were honored in both RCM25 categories. Each organization had one leader and a team chosen from the honorees. These two acknowledgments show the close relationship between RCM leadership and team execution. Leaders set the strategies for the revenue cycle. Teams take those strategies and turn them into operational results.
The individual winners also show how revenue cycle management keeps growing in importance as a strategic tool. Twelve of the 25 recognized leaders are vise president or above. The honorees also represent several important RCM disciplines. These areas are revenue integrity, denial prevention, finance and operations.
Thus, the 2026 RCM25 is a reflection of the increased duties that healthcare revenue cycle management now entails. The role of RCM professionals in financial strategy and organizational performance continues to expand. Healthcare organizations also experience pressures of constant pressure through the revenue cycle. Payer behavior is still changing and denial and underpayment issues are still occurring. Technology is playing a growing role in solving these issues. Organizations want to perform better without adding more operational burdens.
