Episode 68: Tina Eichstadt and the Selection of the Right Assessment, Perry Flynn and the ASHA Update, Aetna Denies Claims without Reading, and Banning Productivity
 
Matt, Michael, and Michelle discuss Luke Perry passing from the complications of a stroke and the impact it has on others.  Perry Flynn took time from his trip to Capital Hill to inform Speech Science Listeners what ASHA is doing for them.  Aetna Medical Director admits to never reviewing medical claims before declining to pay for them.  What role does productivity have in your setting?  An idea for an MD is to ban it completely.  Lastly, Tina Eichstadt from Pearson Assessments sits down and discusses all things about assessments.  How are they chosen, which is the best, and how do you get yours represented by Pearson.
