After exposure to many different companies, I found the perfect opportunity to fit my professional background and family goals and objectives. I tested out various options and business models. I also trained on programs related to online business expansion. I now can combine travel and my business, and live life on my terms. Let's talk! My calendar: www.GBillings.com

Over eight years, I helped to build CTeL into the legal and regulatory institute on safe telemedicine policies. As executive director, I coordinated the strategy and distribution of telemedicine legal and regulatory information. Under my direction, CTeL released the first ever telemedicine public service announcement, “The Day Telehealth Saved Baby Malea”. As more aggressive use of the term “telemedicine” unfolded, with many different communication methods used to diagnose patients, medical safety became an issue. I drafted the industry’s first ever Safe Telemedicine Principles. Adopted by the CTeL Board, these principles served as foundation for regulatory discussions throughout the country. I oversaw all CTeL legal and regulatory analysis, hosted CTeL’s monthly Legal and Regulatory Webinars, and coordinated CTeL’s weekly email “blasts” with timely telemedicine information.As CTeL Innovations, Inc. CEO, I directed the strategic planning and legal/regulatory analysis for multiple clients seeking compliance guidance with state telemedicine policies. I oversaw the analysis and strategic planning for clients in health systems, the insurance industry, and business entrepreneurs launching innovative and regulatory-compliant telemedicine models.Through CTeL and CTeL Innovations, I launched the industry’s first ever small group, open microphone “round table” meeting which focused solely on telemedicine’s legal and regulatory issues. The conferences bring together senior executives from medical societies, health and hospital systems, telemedicine programs, communications companies, Federal and Congressional staff, and health profession regulatory officials. I oversaw topic selection for conference issues that go directly to the industry’s key legal and regulatory concerns.Starting January, 2020, my responsibilities have transitioned from executive director to oversight of the organization's financial structure and strategic guidance on CTeL's objectives.

In the lobbying world, I represented healthcare non profits in telemedicine, home remote patient monitoring through the use of technology, and medical simulation training. I directed the telemedicine and medical simulation training non-profits from within the firm. I developed the legislative and administrative policy strategies, oversaw budget and finances, and coordinated annual meetings with discussions of industry issues.

Through three senior, chief-of-staff level positions, I directed policy, administrative, and personnel in the offices of two United States Senators and a Senate Committee. I coordinated the Senators’ annual legislative priorities and strategies. In my legislative role, I drafted trade and agricultural policies included in major legislation. At the Committee, I oversaw strategy development, preparation, and distribution of all outbound communications. I oversaw budget and personnel issues at the Committee and one of the Senator’s offices. I allocated financial resources and deployed personnel to implement the Committee and Senator’s agenda.

After 17 years working in Congress, I served as chief of staff to the administrator of the Farm Service Agency in the Department of Agriculture. FSA has about as many employees as the population of my Yankton, South Dakota home town when I was growing up! (11,000+ in 50 states and the territories) I represented the administrator in meetings and served as the Agency’s liaison to the Department’s senior leadership in the Secretary, Deputy, and Assistant Secretary offices. I coordinated the administrator’s major agency initiatives. Because of the sensitivity of my position, the administrator often deployed me to investigate “sensitive” personnel issues, both in the headquarters and in offices throughout the country.

I served in administrative, communications, state office, and legislative positions. I was the point person in drafting legislative proposals for the 1985 Farm Bill. In addition, I coordinated budgets, personnel issues, and overall legislative policies, and represented the Congressman at constituent meetings.
