In our latest Zotec Answers podcast, Anders Gilberg, Senior Vice President, Government Affairs at the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA), and I discuss the major pain points today for many physician practices & the MGMA’s advocacy efforts to address those issues. MGMA represents ~15K medical groups and tens of thousands of physicians. Spanning over 20+ years in DC and nearly all of that with MGMA, Anders describes how he and the association are addressing issues of prior authorization reform & administrative burdens like downcoding in advocacy. My personal and sincere thanks to Anders for taking the time to provide his perspectives and thoughts, and special thanks to my Zotec Partners’ colleagues Jen Fox and Megan Applegarth for production and directing support. @ZotecPartners @ZP_PAC Have you listened to Zotec Answers - A Healthcare Podcast yet?
