Join us for episode 1 of season 3 as we explore an essential compliance topic: coverage analysis. It’s a complicated process, but lucky for us, we have Andra Popa. Andra is an expert with nearly two decades of experience in healthcare law, compliance, and coverage analysis. As one of the first in the industry to provide coverage analysis, Andra walks us through the intricate details of the process, including why it’s so important and the consequences if you don’t have a proper coverage analysis process in place.
