HFMA members: We need your expertise We're turning to you, our industry experts, to help answer HFMA Community questions that have not received a response yet. See the list of discussions below, join the group and add your knowledge to assist your fellow members. Thanks in advance for your help. What consent policies and/or procedures do you have for minor patients who come in for care with their grandparents or older siblings? https://ow.ly/3a7x50T2ycQ I’m wondering what, if anything, other Athena users are doing to check for medical necessity at the time a lab order is written? If not, when and how are you checking for medical necessity? https://ow.ly/t5CZ50T2ycR I am looking for creative ways to leverage the Epic software to redefine the re-admit process at intake, discharge and transition of care. https://ow.ly/frhJ50T2ycN I would like to connect with someone who operates an off-campus outpatient survey center in Illinois. I have licensing, billing and contracting questions. https://ow.ly/6vi650T2ycS What are others’ procedures during downtime or registration off hours? https://ow.ly/6stK50T2ycM

A must-listen episode of "Healthcare Blame Game" about how reporter bias and opinions are seeping into healthcare reporting.
Should healthcare industry reporters write opinion columns in major newspapers or share their personal views on the speaking circuit? In the latest episode of the "Healthcare Blame Game" podcast, I sit down with The University of Memphis professor and former editorial page editor of the The Commercial Appeal, Otis Sanford, to explore these questions. We go deep into the journalistic codes and ethics that traditionally kept reporter biases in check, and examine how the line between journalism and advocacy is increasingly blurred today. Whether you're a healthcare stakeholder or a journalist, this episode offers insights that might surprise you. Plus, do you really know what "op-ed" stands for? I'm looking at you Erika Grotto :) Also in this episode, Erika and I discuss The New York Times story about a man who threw a party after meeting his healthcare deductible and we share a special song he wrote for the occasion. Listen at the link below or iTunes, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. https://lnkd.in/dyCQBqtt Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) #Healthcare #Journalism #Ethics #Podcast
