Oh the travails of Behavioral Health EHR vendors! Sometimes they are cringe worthy from what is appropriate marketing material to how slow and outdated a product actually is and how that impacts a mental health agency.
We do love technology and so appreciate the vendors that service behavioral health with integrity, innovation, maturity, and best-in-class products and services.
Today we interview our CEO, Kristin Walker. She has a lot to say about electronic health record vendors and revenue cycle management companies that service Behavioral Health. It’s no-holds-barred as usual and we’ll discuss just who has access to patient mental health records from Revenue Cycle Management organizations to Electronic Health Record vendors. We’ll shine a spotlight on why this is important to agencies and providers.
She also answers questions from our listeners about what she does, why she does it, and why her radio show and Behavioral Health are her passions.
