Scott Allen is the SVP of Managed Care at nimble, and he’s on today’s show to help us wrap up our Payor Contract series. We have already covered 6 Tips for Effective Management and Leveraging Data for Negotiations, and we’ll finish up the series by doing a deep dive into Chargemaster Essentials. Scott walks us through common issues, making sure your chargemaster is up to date, and how to maintain it effectively.

In our news recap, we’ll cover a kickback lawsuit in New York, potential AI bias, the role of automation in RCM, and, of course, end the news segment with a positive story about a nurse who saved a patient’s life who was having a stroke.
