I understand Price Transparency, Medicare Prospective Payment Systems (DRGs, APCs, etc.) and other systems used to assign value to services provided. I am a student of negotiating concepts, provider incentives, and principles used to develop collaborative, win-win relationships.In my free time, I am a "DIY reader" and enjoy learning new skills.
