Leadership & Expertise

Chris Athnos

IT Manager & Account Coordinator

Chris Athnos is an Account Coordinator and IT Security Officer at Valletta Group, where he manages revenue cycle operations for multiple clients, including a flagship multi-site practice with over 75 clinicians. He oversees day-to-day RCM performance, ensuring accurate execution across billing, collections, and account management functions.

Chris takes a systems-driven approach to his work, focusing on process redesign, workflow optimization, and performance oversight to improve key revenue metrics such as net collection rate, denial rates, and days in A/R. He tracks operational trends closely and implements targeted adjustments that strengthen both efficiency and financial outcomes.

In addition to his revenue cycle responsibilities, Chris serves as Valletta’s internal IT liaison, coordinating with third-party vendors to support infrastructure, manage user access, and maintain system continuity—bringing a dual focus on operational reliability and data security.

“Precision at the intake stage eliminates friction downstream. We focus on getting the details right the first time, every single time.”
