Join Host Nicole Thorn, health care attorney, who discusses with guest Lori Kilpeck, a trusts and estates partner at Brouse McDowell the importance of physicians planning their wishes for their assets--tangible and intangible-- in various legal documents. Health care businesses often rely on operational knowledge of physicians in their management and administrative capacities so succession planning is also critical to the sustainability of those organizations. Finally, trusts and estates planning is also helpful for other family members such as college students. 

Nicole Thorn, health care attorney, hosts Stacey Stuhrenberg, Senior Consultant, Coding and Compliance at Kraft Healthcare Consulting, an affiliate of KraftCPAs. Stacey shares her expertise and insight on some of the keys to ensuring practices remain vigilant with their documentation and coding E&M visits under the new guidelines, including the focus on application of medical decision-making.

In Part II of this series, learn a bit more about intrapersonal skills, particularly self and social management aspects of emotional intelligence and how honing those skills can help physicians diffuse stressful situations. In the heat of the moment and in an effort to avoid mistakes affecting patient care, physicians can sometimes lash out physically and wind up in hot water running afoul of medical staff bylaws and/or other professional conduct standards. Jenifer provides some insight into how physicians can focus on their development of techniques and tools to prevent such conduct.

In this episode, James McCaulley of AtNetPlus, shares with us how a third-party technical vendor assists health care entities with their HIPAA compliance. Even if many systems are remotely hosted by third-party providers, covered entities under HIPAA are still responsible for the protected health information they generate. Last year's pandemic created a sense of urgency for many health care providers to have to scramble to obtain a telehealth platform and make other on-the-fly operational decisions. Now is the time to reconvene and ensure those processes and platforms are HIPAA-compliant.

The Department of Health and Human Services doled out billions of dollars in relief funds through the CARES Act in an effort to help health care providers stay afloat during the COVID-19 pandemic. One of the conditions of acceptance for these funds was the obligation to account for their use which had limits. That reporting window is now open. Tune in as we talk with a guest who is a health care accountant on the Do's and Don'ts to consider during this reporting process.

During this unique pandemic time, mental health and well-being are as critical as ever. Physicians in particular have been positioned to be super-human in their treatment and management of COVID-19, yet they too are experiencing the same personal effects this pandemic is having on our lives. More than ever, physicians need to be able to obtain the necessary mental health support for their own well-being. Guest Jenifer Haller-Hill, executive coach and licensed counselor, and Nicole Thorn, health care attorney, discuss the one common issue physicians cite as a barrier to obtaining mental health support—fear of licensure suspension or revocation.  

Join us in this timely podcast to learn more about this critical issue to healthcare professionals.
