In this episode, we discuss Chronic Care Management (CCM).  We take the opportunity to introduce many of our listeners to this billable service for which Medicare pays that many providers may not be doing just yet.  CCM was introduced by Medicare back in 2015 and has just now become a topic that organizations are interested in. We break down what CCM is, the requirements for it, and why, most importantly, it benefits the patient.

In this episode, we review the American College of Healthcare Executive’s (ACHE) and the American Hospital Assocation’s (AHA) FutureScan (2018-2023).  This white paper is all about healthcare trends and implications.

We discuss topics such as healthcare reform, cybersecurity, equity of care, and more!  If you work in healthcare in any way, this is an episode you will not want to miss.

In this episode, we interview a long-time family friend and Army Veteran, Colonel Brook Jones.  Colonel Jones was Command Inspector General of the 3rd Medical Command of the United States Army Reserve and with the Medical Service Corps.  Throughout his service, he was integral to the infrastructure of the medical facilities that supported our fighting forces. We were so glad to be able to sit down with him and hear all about his time in the service, as well as his perspective on the needs of military doctors today.

Are you suffering with large amounts of student debt? Did you know that the average physician owes $250,000 upon finishing their education, while a nurse could owe up to $80,000?  Today we sit down with Jim Zedella, CEO of Fiducius. Fiducius is a company that assists borrowers with Federal Forgiveness programs like Public Service Loan Forgiveness, as well as other refinance options to help them with their Student Loan Debt.

In this episode, we had the privilege to chat with Suzanne Shugg, DNP.  Suzanne is the director of the preventive cardiology clinic at NJ Cardiology Associates and she also teaches Adult Medicine and Future Technology in healthcare at Rutgers University.  She has served across the United States as a consultant for telemedicine, starting independent telemedicine clinics both in and out of hospitals.

This episode is all about creating a Productivity Calculator and how to customize it for your organizational needs.  Increasingly, Healthcare Organizations must manage their Human Resources more efficiently.

In today’s episode, we introduce the topic of Healthcare Sharing.  You may have heard of this new up and coming form of healthcare coverage that seems to be becoming more and more popular with each passing year.

In today’s episode, we are discussing another healthcare hack.  This one is all about what we like to call “Flash Meetings”. A flash meeting is a daily morning meeting that Alan implemented with his staff at his former hospital.  Through his experience in putting this structure in place, he realized how critical it is in order for all staff to be on the same page and working toward the same goals. You will hear Mindie ask Alan all about how he began this structure, what the meeting included, and why it is important.  But we don’t just tell you about it...we want to HELP you! We have included some free downloads for you, including the actual Google document that Alan’s staff used to enter all key information for each morning meeting.  The other download is a description of the type of employee you will need to make all of this function smoothly.  We are excited to bring this conversation to you and we hope you will join in on the discussion.
