In this podcast, How to Boost Your Online Visibility:Essential Marketing Strategies for LNCs, you’ll get to learn from two LNC experts. Pat Iyer, host of the podcast, has worked as an LNC since 1987 and ran a very successful business. She continues her private practice, mentors LNC students, and hosts popular online conferences.

Barbara Levin is an LNC, certified orthopedic nurse, and nurse scholar at Massachusetts General Hospital. She is a former chair of the Massachusetts Board of Nursing.

They discuss a range of practical issues related to marketing. You’ll learn critical aspects of protecting your website security, making sure you always have access to it, and how to use keywords to draw the attorneys with whom you want to work.

Pat provides an overview of the role AI can play in your marketing efforts. She emphasizes how consulting an AI program can increase your success on the search engines.

They also discuss the re-emergence of live networking. Attorneys like to meet the LNCS with whom they may be working. Live conferences provide an ideal opportunity for those meetings to occur.

However, for the purposes of sharpening your skills and being able to interact with LNCS from around the country, online events are still the most effective venue, and they invite you to their upcoming conference on September 26-27.

Hospital-acquired infections can be significant malpractice issues. Gwen Rogers, a nursing expert in epidemiology, shares her knowledge on this subject. She explains how such infections are acquired and emphasizes that handwashing is still the best line of defense. Check out this podcast episode on Preventing Hospital Infections: Key Techniques and Liability Issues.

She provides a long and invaluable list of questions that an LNC should ask about such infections, including several related to IV placement and maintenance and how not following the protocol can cause infections.

Gwen goes into detail about the requirements for a medical center to act as Medicare and Medicaid providers. Such institutions are required to provide data for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Attorneys have access to this information, which includes infection rates.

She further goes into the complexities involved in these calculations and notes that different states have their own standards.

Hospital-acquired infections can be serious, have long-term effects, and sometimes be fatal. Every LNC should be familiar with the nuances of this condition in its various forms.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Preventing Hospital Infections: Key Techniques and Liability Issues

What is healthcare-acquired infection, and how do people get it?

What questions should an LNC ask about hospital-acquired infections?

How can you find out about the hospital’s record regarding acquired infections?

What are the "mandatories"?

How can infections be prevented or alleviated?

One of the greatest difficulties for novice entrepreneurs is dealing with difficult clients. This can be especially difficult for a nurse. In a clinical setting you get a regular paycheck. Usually, expectations of what you will do are clear. Pat Iyer and Barbara Leven share tips on how to handle difficult attorney clients.

In communications, though, with attorneys, until you get to know them, that kind of clarity doesn’t always manifest. Some attorneys don’t make their needs clear; others may not want to discuss issues they have with your work.

Pat Iyer and Barbara Levin, experienced LNCs share their expertise in these areas. They emphasize that you will often need to take the lead in discerning issues. Ask questions. Persist in making contact. Listen carefully.

In practical terms, have a contractual agreement signed before you work. If a termination of the relationship occurs, return unused portions of the retainer.

Richard emphasizes that malpractice suits may often contain elements of fraud. This provides as huge opportunity for LNCs. They can catch the discrepancies in billing that may point to fraud. They can detect diagnosis discrepancies. In countless ways, they can provide the attorney with information that can greatly strengthen a case.

In cases where a potential client says he can’t afford your fees, consider each case on its own merits. This may be a negotiating ploy. You may have to resist your nurse-ingrained impulse to help you. Remember, you have bills to pay.

The same determination applies when your client refuses to pay your invoices. Find out if there were work-related issues. Do your best to get paid without resorting to a collection agency but go that route if you must.

We know you will benefit from this information-filled podcast.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: How to Handle Difficult Attorney Clients

How can you most effectively prevent and/or resolve communication difficulties with a client?

How can you contractually protect yourself if a client ghosts you or if other difficulties arise?

What do you say when a potential client says he or she can’t afford your rates?

What can you do when your client refuses to pay your invoices?

What are some of the issues around invoice collection?

This podcast interview, Fraud Tips and Tricks and the LNC, goes into depth on a subject that deserves much more attention than it gets: medical fraud. This kind of fraud may cost the U.S. government as much as $300 billion per year, income that could help to keep Medicare/Medicare and a financially tottering medical system afloat.

Richard Bays, as an LNC and lawyer, is uniquely positioned to discuss this issue. He describes medical as double billing, billing for non-services, overbilling, and billing for a more complicated procedure than the patient received. Many subcategories exist within the fraudulent billing process, including forged prescriptions.

Forty percent of medical fraud is committed by licensed health professional. Some is also committed by those with forged licenses. You’ll hear about many variants in the fraud scheme.

You will be fascinated by Richard’s description of how fraud becomes rationalized and how it multiplies exponentially the more people are involved. He provides a detailed analysis of the way criminal minds think.

Richard emphasizes that malpractice suits may often contain elements of fraud. This provides as huge opportunity for LNCs. They can catch the discrepancies in billing that may point to fraud. They can detect diagnosis discrepancies. In countless ways, they can provide the attorney with information that can greatly strengthen a case.

This means providing an invaluable service not only for attorneys and their clients but as a way to interrupt the cycle of fraud.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Fraud Tips and Tricks and the LNC

What does billing fraud mean within the healthcare system?

What are four major areas of medical billing fraud?

How much medical fraud is generated by licensed medical professionals?

How does whistleblowing work as a means of reporting medical fraud?

How can LNCs assist attorneys in detecting fraud?

In this podcast, Writing LNC Articles for Publication, Pat Iyer, multi-published author and LNC, gives you a step-by-step guide to writing, submitting, and revising articles for publication.

First, you need to know who your target audience is. You may want to write for fellow LNCs. This is an excellent way to make contacts and connections. If you choose to write for attorneys (and you can do both), you want to subtly impress them with your expertise. After they read your article on new developments in sepsis, for example, you want them to think of you first when they have a sepsis case.

Your headline is all important. Pat recommends using artificial intelligence programs to generate both headlines and subtitles, and she shows you how.

She describes various ways to structure an article, including outlining and mind mapping. Depending on how you organize your thoughts, one of these is likely to work well for you.

The format of an article is essential. Structural elements like subheads, bulleted and numbered lists, and other design elements help guide the reader through the article.

You want to be able to include autobiographical and contact information. Just don’t make it a “Hire Me!” plea.

The editor of the journal may ask others for peer reviews. You can help yourself by getting  your own selected peers to read it. This will reduce revision needs. Consider revision suggestions carefully and objectively. Often, they genuinely improve the article. Only question them if you feel they are completely wrong. Editors will remember difficult authors.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Writing LNC Articles for Publication

Why does article writing help your LNC career?

Who are you writing for?

How do you write for an attorney audience?

What are the components of an article?

What is the best way to handle your Call to Action (CTA)?

Your Presenter of Writing LNC Articles for Publication - Pat Iyer

Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC established a highly successful independent LNC business in 1989. She grew Med League to become a multimillion-dollar business which provided expert witnesses and did behind the scenes consulting. She trained hundreds of expert witnesses and supervised a staff of employees and subcontractors. After selling Med League in 2015,

The speed with which a medical team responds to an emergency situation can make the difference between life and death, as well as impact the odds of liability. Listen to this episode titled Rapid Response Team Strategies for Better Patient Care and Reduced Liability. Here to discuss the crucial role of a rapid response team is Yulianna Fedorchak, a highly experienced nurse and Legal Nurse Consultant (LNC) who helped to initiate the rapid response team at New York's Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center.

Yulianna describes the composition of a rapid response team and the circumstances in which it’s appropriate to call on them. She points out that the culture of blame in some hospitals makes nurses afraid to make this call. Much of her work involves encouraging nurses and other medical personnel to do so.

She has noticed that in hospitals in well-to-do communities, patients’ families tend to call for minor issues; whereas those in less affluent areas are reluctant. Overall, she says that the ability to call for a rapid response team is not abused.

Hesitance to write will also hamper their efforts to communicate on social media. It may limit their ability to creatively network.

Yulianna also emphasizes the importance of preventive actions, i.e., addressing and solving an issue before the rapid response team is needed.

Finally, she describes what LNCs can look for in reading medical information and how accurate and meticulous charting can prevent errors and liability.

This podcast provides essential information for anyone involved, either as a consultant or a clinician, related to hospital issues.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Rapid Response Team Strategies for Better Patient Care and Reduced Liability

Who makes up a rapid response team?

When is it essential to call this team?

How can you take preventative action so that you don’t need to call the rapid response team?

What are some specific benefits when a rapid response team functions well within a hospital?

What issues should an LNC look for in terms of failure to respond and related concerns?

In this podcast titled How to Boost Your Legal Nurse Consultant Career by Overcoming Writing Challenges, Pat Iyer covers five major issues that prevent would-be writers from realizing their talents. LNCs who doubt their writing abilities may procrastinate and/or get bogged down in perfectionism, both of which will negatively impact their businesses.

Pat Iyer considers herself fortunate to have received encouragement both from a home environment that valued reading and writing and from teachers who recognized her abilities. Knowing that others have not had these advantages, she devotes much of her work to mentoring and, in other ways, assisting those who would like to overcome writing barriers.

This work is crucial because legal nurse consultants need to write at a minimum with competence. They must also be able to meet deadlines.

Hesitance to write will also hamper their efforts to communicate on social media. It may limit their ability to creatively network.

This podcast doesn’t focus on the negative. Pat includes several stories about people who have learned to work with time restrictions and showcases the financial rewards obtained by an LNC who worked directly with her in the creation of a book.

You, too, can do this. Do whatever it takes to believe in yourself. It’s your life; use your writing to express the unique gift you bring to this world.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: How to Boost Your Legal Nurse Consultant Career by Overcoming Writing Challenges

Do you fret about not having enough time to write?

Do you doubt your writing abilities?

Do you have writing barriers?

Does perfectionism stop you?

Your Presenter of How to Boost Your Legal Nurse Consultant Career by Overcoming Writing Challenges - Pat Iyer

Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC established a highly successful independent LNC business in 1989. She grew Med League to become a multimillion-dollar business which provided expert witnesses and did behind the scenes consulting.

In this podcast titled Understanding Hospice: Expert Advice for LNCs, Yvonne Hanson, who is an expert on hospice care and a passionate advocate for the necessity of excellent care in this area, shares her expertise.

This care can take place in a specific hospice facility, in a skilled nursing facility, or at home–or wherever the patient is. Specific criteria supplied by Medicare apply regarding the eligibility of an individual, even if a private supplier is providing services.

The most important question is whether the person wants hospice and where. Once that and the other criteria are met, the patient is assigned a team of professionals to meet his or her needs.

Unfortunately, hospice care, like all areas of health care in the U.S. is suffering from staff shortages, income problems, and other issues. This can lead to inadequate care, which is where the LNC may enter the picture. Yvonne urges anyone with a hospice case to consult with an expert in the field because of its differences from other medical practices.

Although Yvonne addresses in detail the problems in the hospice structure, she also emphasizes that sometimes, with devoted care, patients get better and leave the hospice setting. She adds that, however her work ends, she greatly values her relationship with the patients entrusted to her care.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Understanding Hospice: Expert Advice for LNCs

What is hospice care?

What are the criteria for hospice care?

Who provides services in a hospice situation?

What are the liability risks in a hospice setting?

Why should an LNC with a hospice case always consult with an expert in that field?

In this podcast episode, Pat shares how to build your LNC writing skills and succeed. She is a proficient and prolific writer, having written 68 books, with several more on the way. Although she always paid close attention to her own writing skills, it took an angry phone call from a client about an expert witness report by one of her subcontractors to make her realize that accuracy was key to her success.

And it’s key to your own success. Whether you write a report, a blog post, newsletter, or promotional letter, your writing skills need to be the best they can be. They say who you are. They speak to your expertise on all levels. They establish you as a professional.

Pat has noticed as a writing coach to LNCs that a big issue that stops them is lack of self-confidence. One way to overcome this is to realize that it isn’t difficult to learn certain basic principles of writing: simplicity, brevity, and accuracy. These qualities alone will raise your writing to a higher-than-average level, and that will give you greater self-confidence.

This episode will provide a valuable outline to help you develop your writing skills. You’ll  want to save it for regular review.

Here's What to Expect from the Podcast: Build Your LNC Writing Skills: How to Succeed

How important are writing skills to an LNC?

How can correct grammar, punctuation, and spelling affect an attorney’s opinion of your skills?

What are some of the promotional writing methods an LNC uses?

Why is improving your self-confidence as a writer so important?

What does Warren Buffett say about writing skills?

Your Presenter of Build Your LNC Writing Skills: How to Succeed - Pat Iyer

Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC established a highly successful independent LNC business in 1989. She grew Med League to become a multimillion-dollar business which provided expert witnesses and did behind the scenes consulting. She trained hundreds of expert witnesses and supervised a staff of employees and subcontractors.

In this podcast episode, Adriana shares how the LNC can contribute to the Social Security Disability application process. One of the most confusing subjects in the U.S. government is Social Security. It’s a maze-like institution, and it can be very difficult to navigate. For this reason, many people hire lawyers to help them navigate the system. Because lawyers and patients may have their own difficulties navigating the world of medical terminology, this is an opportunity for legal nurse consultants to get involved.

Most legal cases concern Social Supplement Income (SSI), which may apply to those not yet old enough for Social Security. Those in government are wrong who claim that huge fraud rates occur in SSI applications. Adriana de la Torre is an attorney who works in the area of Social Security claims. She cites the percentage of fraudulent claims as about 1%.

Adriana goes into a detailed description of the various stages of a claim, which anyone who has to go through the process for themselves or someone else will find helpful. She also explains that attorneys take such cases on contingency. Arrangements are made for them to be paid from back payments due.

When certain requirements are met, a non-attorney can represent clients. This is an opening for an LNC to operate independently in this system. She explains how this can be done.

This podcast is dedicated to showcasing the many opportunities for LNCs. We hope you find this one useful.
