Introducing! Healthcare Uncovered with Dr. Eric Bricker
Healthcare is frustratingly complex. Whether you’re a patient receiving bills for a procedure you received months ago, an employer navigating increasing premiums for your employees, or a physician having claims denied by insurance companies, the whole system is broken.
To help explain the complexities of healthcare, we’ve teamed up with Dr. Eric Bricker, a physician and healthcare finance expert, to present a new series, specifically for doctors and physicians navigating the system. The series, Healthcare Uncovered, aims to break down the broken system and help doctors thrive in a system that makes it hard to do so. Take a look at the promo for Healthcare Uncovered here:
