Episode #775: Medicaid & Medicare May Be Better Than You Think, feat. Gabrielle Juliano-Villani

Episode Description from the Publisher

In today's episode of the podcast, I speak with Gabrielle Juliano-Villani, LCSW, about taking Medicaid & Medicare in private practice, & why it's not as terrifying (or as poorly paying) as you might think. We bust some big misconceptions: the rates are actually decent in a lot of states, the clients are great (let's stop blaming a population for systemic issues), & compliance is very doable with good systems in place. We also cover what community mental health got wrong, the extra codes you may be able to bill, & why these clients might be exactly who fills that 10am Wednesday spot you've been staring at. If you've written off Medicaid & Medicare, this conversation might open your eyes.  Learn more at medicareconsultingfortherapists.com, instagram.com/gjvconsulting, and gabriellejulianovillani.com.
