Zastanawialiście się kiedyś, dlaczego ktoś dobrowolnie wybiera żeglowanie między krami lodowymi zamiast leniwej bryzy w tropikach? Maciej Sodkiewicz opowiada o fascynacji Arktyką, gdzie surowa natura i historia wielkich odkrywców splatają się w jedną opowieść. W rozmowie z Moniką Bronicką zabiera nas w podróż do miejsc, gdzie mało kto dociera – tam, gdzie nawigacja staje się sztuką przetrwania, a kilka centymetrów stalowego poszycia decyduje o życiu.Żeglarstwo wyprawowe to dla niego sztuka prostoty i pokory – podróż w rejony, gdzie natura rządzi się własnymi prawami. Dlaczego właśnie Arktyka tak go fascynuje? "Bo jest binarna – albo cukierkowa, przepiękna kraina, gdzie słońce nie zachodzi, albo ostra i zmieniająca się w miejsce, gdzie kończy się skala Beauforta."Arktyczne jachty na długich światłach, nowocześni odkrywcy, instrukcja przetrwania na krańcu świata – to wszystko w najnowszym odcinku!

Is it possible for a hospital to turn a small cybersecurity incident into a full-blown crisis based only on the words used and the approach to communicating about the event? What about the opposite – is it possible for a major incident to be mitigated and minimized with little reputational damage…just through effective communication? The answer to these rhetorical questions is, obviously, yes. That's according to cybersecurity with Barry Mathis. Mathis is a principal at PYA where he draws on three decades of experience as a chief information officer, chief technology officer, and other roles to help healthcare clients plan, develop and implement complex IT solutions. As part of that work, Mathis spends a lot of time advising healthcare organizations on how to reduce risk and avoid – or worst-case scenario, minimize – the fallout from cybersecurity incidents. For this conversation Mathis joined Dan Schlacter, a vice president in the Jarrard Inc. Health Services Practice and lead on much of the firm's cybersecurity work, to talk about the best practices and the role of communications both before and after an incident. Key Insights Be strategic about the words that you use to describe a cybersecurity attack: Avoid the word “breach,” and instead opt for a word like “incident,” to reduce exposure and dial down the temperature in communications about the event. Prioritize cybersecurity training and have a crisis response plan in place before an attack happens to ensure that your organization can respond to an attack quickly and efficiently. Loop in communications experts and legal counsel during the early stages of a cybersecurity incident. (And don't take anything in this conversation as legal advice. We are not attorneys.)

Price transparency has pushed hospitals to publish detailed information about what they charge for their services, including providing good faith estimates to patients. This initiative is a step forward in the effort to make healthcare costs more transparent and accessible for patients, but it may have value for rural hospitals beyond that. So, how do rural hospitals provide accurate prices to the public, while utilizing price transparency data to their advantage? On today's episode, hosts JJ and Rachel talk with Martie Ross & Kathy Reep of PYA to discuss price transparency data and how to benefit from it.

By Adam Turteltaub Over the last decade private equity has discovered healthcare, and with that discovery has come a rush of money and compliance nightmares.  Valerie Rock (LinkedIn), Principal, and Kristen Lilly-Davidson (LinkedIn), Consulting Senior Manager, at PYA explain that there has also come a growing awareness of the importance of compliance due diligence. Five to seven years ago, they explain, private equity (PE) firms were focused on business valuations and financial reviews.  Over the years, though, they have learned to appreciate the importance of compliance and coding reviews, including clinical compliance.  The shift was the result of too many instances of finding significant non-compliance issues post-acquisition.  These, of course, can be very expensive. Firms today need to take the time to do site reviews to examine everything from the culture to the business practices to the condition of the building to the devices used.  Often paperwork doesn't match what actual practices are, and a dysfunctional culture can't be identified by looking at a spreadsheet. Risks include the revenue cycle but also operational processes.  If they are poor, the potential for fines and other penalties is substantial. Listen in to learn more about what PE firms are, or should be, doing as they enter the healthcare market.  Plus, pick up some tips that can be useful for non-PE firms that are making acquisitions and conducting their own due diligence.
