RSNA 2022: Predictions vs Reality

Much has already been written about attendance at RSNA, but from a first-hand perspective, RSNA 2022 could be regarded as a step back toward “normal”.

The No Surprises Act: How Payers Can Stay Compliant

As the healthcare system continues to evolve to adopt a more patient-centric approach, surprise billing has become a topic discussed by consumers and policymakers.
