The Medical Management Podcast

Welcome to the second episode with Scott Tucker!

This time, Scott joins us to chat about a topic that most employers may not be keen to talk about: asking for a raise. Having the market values in mind is always important, even though during the pandemic they have been changing constantly. Scott always rechecks them every few months to see that every employee is having a good number on their paychecks. As a manager, always be open to listening to your employee’s reasons to get a raise; their explanations can show you things you might be missing out on. Employees need to understand how much it costs an employer to have them in the company, and that includes health insurance, retirement, in-office services, and more. 

Tune in to this episode and understand the other side of the coin when it comes to raises in a company!

Hello and happy 2022! 

The Medical Management Podcast is truly happy to be back with much more information to help you level up your practice. In this two-part special we feature our friend Scott Tucker. In this first episode, we tackle a controversial topic: the No Surprises Billing Act of 2022. Even though this act applies in its majority to hospital settings, there is a part that applies for outpatient medical clinics and practices. Good faith estimates and disclaimers must be shown to patients. Hospitals and practices are not involved when a patient disputes a bill, that must be done directly with the government.

Scott breaks down the No Surprises Billing Act step by step for you to understand and know how to go forward from now on.

Welcome back to this two-part special with Molly Ramsay! 

Staffing and employee retention have been nothing less than a greek conquest for the last couple of years. Even before the pandemic hit, healthcare workers were feeling burnt out. Since early 2020, when Covid wreaked havoc worldwide, a lot of people have been jumping ship due to being in a constant state of burnout. Compensation is one big flag to touch upon in this discussion, but it isn’t the only one. Many organizations are looking forward to new and softer ways to retain their employees.

Molly and Jesse go through this topic sharing reflections, pieces of advice, and possible solutions to have a stronger January-February period. Tune in and enjoy!

We are back with our first international guest, Peter Vranes! 

In the last episode, he shared his journey in entrepreneurship, wearable devices, and how we can continuously monitor certain levels and tests we usually get tested once or twice a year. For this occasion, Peter will talk to us about new revolutionary technologies. Data sets and their management with the patient at the center of it all are truly important right now. The early identification of some conditions can be so critical to their management, this is why having big data sets can help in this process. Remote patient monitoring is on the growing side of technology, and in the future, we will see more technology enabling it.

Welcome to the top 21 of 2021 tips, tools, and techniques episode!

We are joined by our dear friend Lauren Harris, who went on her own as a healthcare consultant after more than 20 years in healthcare management. Taking care of yourself is a whole-rounded task, this means it involves your physical and mental health, and also your workplace health. They chat about 4 categories: wellness, leadership development, community, and productivity. From wellness to sleep, to the physical environment you work in, to productivity apps and habits, they are all here to help you! 

Tune in and see if you can apply all of the 21that Jesse and Lauren mentioned!

In previous episodes, we have talked about month-ends, budgets, and more, but we haven’t tackled the big topic they all have in common: Financials. 

On this occasion, Jay is here to spill the beans about financials and why having these reports is important. Having insights is incredibly important to see how operational decisions are affecting financial outcomes. There are a lot of things that we can streamline and not overburden the system. Financials are, in the end, a reflection of the operational decisions taken. 

Join Jay, while he gives us a detailed breakdown of the financial aspect in the management department!

Today’s episode is about accountability in tough situations. 

Holding someone accountable to the high standards the company has can be daunting and scary. There are several ways to do so without being arrogant, rude or disrespectful. A boss’s job is to be both compassionate and demanding with their teams. Jesse shares what he thinks are red flags for a leader in this topic. He also gives his thoughts towards what we should do in the future. Accountability comes down to three things: be consistent, step up when you need to, and take a human approach. 

Accountability needs us to be the best version of ourselves we can possibly be.

This way, he urges individuals to become responsible for their own lives and start changing for the better.
