In this episode of the MGMA Insights podcast, we’re joined by Katie Nunn, CEO of Bright Ideas Medical Consulting. Katie has been in the healthcare industry for 20 years, first as a practice administrator and now as a consultant. Over that time, she’s gained valuable knowledge about how to spot the signs and symptoms of financial distress, as well as ways to diagnose and treat it.
