Download or read book A Good Provider Is One Who Leaves written by Jason DeParle and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Washington Post's 10 Best Books of the Year "A remarkable book...indispensable."--The Boston Globe "A sweeping, deeply reported tale of international migration...DeParle's understanding of migration is refreshingly clear-eyed and nuanced."--The New York Times "This is epic reporting, nonfiction on a whole other level...One of the best books on immigration written in a generation."--Matthew Desmond, author of Evicted The definitive chronicle of our new age of global migration, told through the multi-generational saga of a Filipino family, by a veteran New York Times reporter and two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist. When Jason DeParle moved into the Manila slums with Tita Comodas and her family three decades ago, he never imagined his reporting on them would span three generations and turn into the defining chronicle of a new age--the age of global migration. In a monumental book that gives new meaning to "immersion journalism," DeParle paints an intimate portrait of an unforgettable family as they endure years of sacrifice and separation, willing themselves out of shantytown poverty into a new global middle class. At the heart of the story is Tita's daughter, Rosalie. Beating the odds, she struggles through nursing school and works her way across the Middle East until a Texas hospital fulfills her dreams with a job offer in the States. Migration is changing the world--reordering politics, economics, and cultures across the globe. With nearly 45 million immigrants in the United States, few issues are as polarizing. But if the politics of immigration is broken, immigration itself--tens of millions of people gathered from every corner of the globe--remains an underappreciated American success. Expertly combining the personal and panoramic, DeParle presents a family saga and a global phenomenon. Restarting her life in Galveston, Rosalie brings her reluctant husband and three young children with whom she has rarely lived. They must learn to become a family, even as they learn a new country. Ordinary and extraordinary at once, their journey is a twenty-first-century classic, rendered in gripping detail.
Download or read book Patient Provider Interaction written by Lisa Sparks and published by Polity. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a much-needed introduction to the dynamics of the communication exchange between providers and patients in the health-care environment. Starting from the principle that health-care-providers and patients try to speak the same language to reach the best decisions for patient care, but often misunderstand each other whilst navigating the process of diagnosis, treatment and care, Lisa Sparks and Melinda Villagran clearly explain how health communication theory and research can help us better understand these complex interactions, and provide strategies for improving patient and provider communication. Sparks and Villagran cover a broad range of key issues and theories related to provider-patient interaction, including patient information and affective needs, barriers to effective communication in health-care contexts, and communication skills training for providers. Drawing on the most current literature in this vibrant field, they show the transformations that new technologies such as e-mail and text messaging have brought to communication with and between patients and providers, consider the roles of caregivers, both formal and informal, and illustrate how health-care organizations impact on interpersonal interactions. Throughout the book, Sparks and Villagran deftly illustrate how communicative understandings of patient-provider interaction can have positive practical outcomes, feeding into health behaviour change, creating a communication environment which can improve health literacy and ultimately lead to better health outcomes. With groundbreaking insights, on-point explanations, and deeply moving examples, Patient and Provider Interaction illuminates and enriches what is most often one of the most important interactions of our lives.

Download or read book The Preferred Provider s Handbook written by William L. Poynter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994. A revolution has been taking place in behavioral health financing, and only those practitioners who know how to successfully market themselves to managed care organizations are likely to maintain their hold in this rapidly changing system. Realistic, clear, insightful and highly practical, The Preferred Provider's Handbook will help therapists to understand the managed care marketplace and to develop the strategies necessary to meet its many challenges. You will learn how to: Get accepted on preferred provider lists of managed care organizations (M.C.O.s); Generate patient referrals once you are accepted onto a panel of preferred providers; Retain active referral status over the long term; Zero in on the higher quality networks that produce higher income and have minimal legal risk; Break into closed provider lists-one of the most difficult but important tasks. The Handbook clearly sets forth the basics of managed care with the aim of helping psycho therapists gain an understanding and acceptance of this new system. The volume addresses strategic marketing, whereby therapists can select and pursue those managed care organizations best suited to their needs; provides tools for designing and implementing a marketing plan; and gives a framework for understanding and making profitable use of future trends-in a profes sional and ethical manner. Of particular value is a chapter discussing marketing implications for behavioral health arising from the Clinton administration's new "managed competition" plans. Armed with specific information on how to fill out an M.C.O. application, how to analyze a contract, which specialties are most desirable and which should be avoided, how to network, and much, much more, you will be well on your way to professional success. This is an essential resource for all practitioners in the managed care marketplace.
Download or read book The Provider s Guide to Leveraging Obamacare written by Shaun Kirk, MHS, PT, MTC and published by HealthNet Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-15 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Provider's Guide to Leveraging Obamacare With all of the news reports, continued political debates, threats of lawsuits and numerous "expert" opinions about Obamacare, many healthcare providers believe that they may have to sell their practices early or bite the bullet and start all over. · Patients are going to have to pay more out of their own pockets because of higher insurance premiums and the much higher deductibles offered at the Healthcare Exchanges so it may be much harder to keep patients on their schedules to complete their full treatment programs. Reimbursements were already going down before this healthcare reform took hold so most practitioners expected to get even less return for treatments in the future and also realize there will be much more paperwork to collect it. The Practitioner's Guide to Leveraging Obamacare will open your eyes regarding the opportunities possible and through even this healthcare reform. This new book explains Obamacare in simple, but detailed language. Non-political and completely unbiased, the book provides healthcare practitioners with strategic options and specific steps that can be easily and readily incorporated into their existing operation to not only survive Obamacare, but continue to provide the best level of treatment and care to each of their patients and even expand their practice. A "must read" for every Healthcare Provider.

Download or read book Mental Health Providers Guide To Managed Care written by Leonard Reich and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2006 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For both patients and providers, the words managed care are loaded with negative connotations, synonymous with inefficiency and bureaucracy. Forced to perform a delicate balancing act of offering the best possible care for their clients while carefully adhering to various managed care policies and procedures, providers in particular often wince at the prospect of having to deal with managed care companies, or MCOs. Fearing burdensome paperwork, low reimbursement rates, and denials of care, it's not surprising that a number of mental health professionals choose to limit their involvement with managed care companies-or eliminate it altogether. "My clients are all on different health plans; how can I keep the policies straight?" "Getting services approved is so time-consuming that I'm better off accepting only self-paying clients, aren't I?" "Do the benefits of working with MCOs really outweigh the drawbacks?" The answer, according to two industry insiders, is yes. If you know how to work with the system, the system can work for you. Mental Health Provider's Guide to Managed Care is the first handbook of its kind to offer clinicians a window into the inner-workings of MCOs. Authors Reich and Kolbasovsky candidly draw on their combined 37 years experience in the field to walk readers through all the major elements of how to successfully work within the system: marketing yourself and your practice to an MCO, getting onto a MCO's network, maintaining a good relationship and communicating with MCOs for quick service approval, reducing your liability, understanding your rights and responsibilities, getting paid, and more. Every issue—big and small—is covered, from capitation versus fee-for-service payment arrangements to evaluating which MCOs are a good fit to join, and everything in between. After explaining how to work with the system, the authors reveal how to put the system to work for you. Tips for building your practice through referrals, generating business through doctor collaboration, and understanding future practice opportunities are all covered.By demystifying the complexities of managed care and offering a unique, inside view of the process, this book mitigates the negative connotations associated with MCOs and exposes the hidden benefits of a seemingly burdensome process. Exceedingly reader-friendly and packed with insightful tips and vignettes, Mental Health Provider's Guide to Managed Care is one clinician's guide you won't want to be without.
