In this episode of MGMA Week in Review, hosts Daniel Williams and Colleen Luckett explore pressing issues impacting healthcare practices today. The episode opens with insights from the Colorado HIMSS Advocacy Day Breakfast, where Colleen shares the latest updates on healthcare cybersecurity and the growing need for vigilance against data breaches and cyber threats. Daniel dives into a recent study showing that patients are willing to wait for their preferred doctors, particularly for complex or personal care, highlighting the ongoing importance of continuity of care.

The conversation then shifts to incentive-based pay trends for advanced practice providers, where Colleen and Daniel analyze a modest but notable shift away from heavily incentivized compensation models. Rounding out the discussion, they examine predictions for hospital overcrowding and its downstream impact on outpatient care, stressing the importance of collaboration between hospitals and ambulatory practices to manage patient flow effectively.
