To optimize cost savings, patient experience and staffing, hospitals and health systems are using multidisciplinary teams working to deliver care. Fortunately, new legislation expanded certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) abilities to practice without direct physician supervision.
The CRNA’s Role in the Future of Clinical Operations webinar on Jan. 12, 2023 will include panelists Steve Barnett, president and CEO of McKenzie Health System, Robert Casalou, president and CEO of Trinity Health Michigan & Southeast Regions and Jeremiah J. Hodshire, president of Hillsdale Hospital. They will review how their organizations have increased CRNA duties and responsibilities and tactics to build support and operationalize CRNA practice. MHA staff will outline advocacy efforts to expand CRNA’s scope of practice and answer questions about reimbursement.
The webinar is cosponsored by the Michigan Association of Nurse Anesthetists (MANA) and is open to MHA and MANA members. Chief executives and presidents, financial and operational team members, medical, nurses and compliance officers are encouraged to register.
Members with questions should contact Erin Steward at the MHA.
