In this five-part podcast series, I take a deep dive into healthcare monitoring and how the pro-active use of a healthcare monitor can positively impact all stakeholders in the healthcare industry: the regulators, the healthcare industry and the consumers of healthcare services, the public. I am joined in this exploration with two individuals from Affiliated Monitors, Inc. (AMI), the sponsor of this series,  Catherine A. Keyes, Vice President of Operations, and Jesse Caplan, Managing Director of Corporate Oversight. In this age of the Coronavirus health crisis and the Trump Administration’s bailout package, these issues are even more important. In this first episode, I visit with Jesse Caplan to introduce the use of an independent integrity monitor in the healthcare sector and explain how such a monitor can increase value.
