Step into the ever-changing world of healthcare as host Meredith Hirsh sits down with Lynette Byrnes, a longtime force in rheumatology operations. In this episode of Working Healthcare, Lynette explains how she helps teams tackle the day-to-day pressures of practice life and traces her path from imaging and gynecology to two decades guiding rheumatology practices. From her early involvement with the National Organization of Rheumatology Management (NORM) to helping grow United Rheumatology from a small roundtable into a national voice, Lynette breaks down why independent practices are shouldering heavier administrative burdens and what it takes to stay resilient. She also opens up about balancing motherhood, adapting through constant change and why ending prior authorization is the single move she believes could reshape American healthcare. Get ready for a direct, energizing conversation packed with real-world insight and practical takeaways.
