You’re invited to go behind the scenes and listen as case managers tell their stories – of long hours, little sleep, and always being ambushed by a bell ringing for help.
These unsung heroes of healthcare are receiving their moment in the sun during the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, with a special 60-minute broadcast. The first half of the venerable weekly Internet broadcast will continue to bring you the news and information you’ve come to rely upon.
During the second segment, Patti Velky, American Case Management Association’s Board President, will report on the sweeping changes in the newly signed One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). The law includes nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts, potentially affecting 12 million people. Changes to state-directed payments and provider taxes could slash hospital funding by $340 billion. With key programs like Disproportionate Share Hospitals (DSHs), telehealth, and Hospital at Home still in limbo, the impact on hospitals, especially in Medicaid expansion and non-expansion states, will be profound. Case management teams will face mounting challenges in discharge planning, amid shrinking resources.
Also during the second half of the 60-minute broadcast, Mary Beth Pace, American Case Management Association’s Board President-Elect, will report on the one of case management’s toughest challenges: difficult discharges. With shrinking resources and limited post-acute options, getting “ready-to-go” patients safely discharged is harder than ever. Mary Beth will share new tactics and practical strategies to help case managers navigate these complex situations.
Finally, Adriana Peters, Board President for the Association of Physician Leaders in Care Management (APLCM), will report on how hospitals can turn data into action through the smarter use of metrics, KPIs, and analytics-driven storytelling.
The weekly broadcast will also include these instantly recognizable features:
- Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 RCM, will be making his Monday Rounds.
- The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, partner at the law firm of Nelson Mullins, will report the latest news about auditors.
- Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.
- Legislative Update: Matthew Albright, chief legislative affairs analyst for Zelis, will report on the news happening at the intersection of healthcare and congressional action.
