'There is Hope': MGMA's Fischer-Wright Provides Leadership Perspective on COVID-19 Crisis

In this episode of the MGMA Insights podcast, we learn that there’s no perfect blueprint for medical practices to follow on how to survive the COVID-19 crisis. But according to MGMA President and CEO Halee Fischer-Wright, MD, MMM, FAAP, FACMPE, there is still hope for the future – and with it, the chance for healthcare leaders to rise above as they work toward establishing some semblance of a new normal. As practices continue to move forward, Fischer-Wright emphasized the need for administrators and executives to embrace “the care aspect” of their positions. Curiosity, connection and communication can all be helpful tools for keeping teams happy and productive.
