  • Mitigate Risk and Ensure Compliancy during These Changing Healthcare Times
    Oct 6 2014
    While healthcare has always been a tightly regulated industry, it has become exponentially more regulated as a result of post-ACA implementation. For health systems and the vendors that serve them, keeping up with the necessary procedures and documentation needed for HIPAA compliancy and other regulations has become a more than a full-time job. The requirements to invest in additional technologies and adopt different methods of interconnectivity also increase risk. Join Robert and his guest, Damon Work, partner at FDH Consulting, as they discuss the processes, procedures and documentation necessary to mitigate risk and be compliant in today’s healthcare industry.

  • A Look at Trends Impacting Healthcare’s Current Financial Environment
    Sep 22 2014
    Hospitals and health systems continue to navigate a post ACA-implementation world that focuses on fee-for-performance, bundled services and a system heavily dependent on Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement. Yet the stocks of these systems and organizations are doing well despite the profit-restrictive environment. Join Robert and his guest, David Windley, managing director, Health Equity Research at Jeffries, LLC, as they take a current look at health system and hospital financial viability as well as the products and services that remain in demand. Part of their discussion centers on how for-profits are faring in the sea of government reimbursement and they will review the state of ACOs and managed care and hospital stocks. They also discuss how healthcare consumers have risen through the ranks to become major influencers in the industry.
