Agencies that invest in dependable fleet management see smoother operations and happier clinicians.  If you’re exploring ways to strengthen your team’s reliability on the road, you’ll love this conversation with Katrina Reese from Enterprise Fleet Management on the Home Health Revealed podcast. 🎧 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gZRDdjv7 #HomeHealth #Operations #PatientCare #HealthRevPartners #HomeHealthRevealed

Many physicians assume audits are rare, but as billing consultant Dawn Osland (Osland Medical Billing Tools Inc.) explains, they occur more often than expected—and the physician alone is responsible.
