Healing Healthcare Through Empathy, Compassion and Kindness

In this episode of the MGMA Insights podcast, we’re joined by Jessica Ellis-Wilson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessicaelliswilson). Jessica is a CMPE, as well as a consultant, speaker, and coach who has found through research that "Many of our daily pain points like isolation, societal disparities and inequities, and systemic bias can be assuaged – if not eliminated – by embracing empathy, compassion, and kindness for ourselves and those around us."
