    Doug Wojcieszak of Sorry Works! Speaks Up

    Doug Wojcieszak is a disclosure training consultant who created Sorry Works! and has trained thousands of healthcare, insurance, and legal professionals. Wojcieszak is a sought-after speaker and trainer, and Sorry Works! content (books, booklets, on-line learning, etc) has become the “go to” references for organizations dealing with adverse medical events.  Sorry Works! and Wojcieszak partnered with The Sullivan Group to provide on-line disclosure training content for healthcare professionals.  Most recently, Wojcieszak led the transition of Sorry Works! to a 501c3 non-profit organization.  As a non-profit, Sorry Works! will focus on conducting research about disclosure while continuing to fulfill traditional roles of training and advocacy.

    Working from Home Privacy Issues, Mammogram Bullies, and Predatory Hospital Billing

    With everyone working from home, what happens to your private information? Is your file sitting on someones dining room table, on their bed, on top of the dryer? Do their children and their friends have access to your private information? Can employees really change diapers, school their children, and effectively and accurately create your hospital bills? Apparently not! Today we share some real life examples, including barking dogs, crying kids, mammogram bullies and plain old poor customer service.

    Plus a short post-election rant.

Honest and Fair

I so appreciate this program because the host, Pat Rullo knows how to present a sometimes difficult topic or conversation with unabashed honesty and fairness. Each segment is obviously well researched and then delivered as simply and openly as possible. With healthcare in such a state these days, we need to rethink our choices and feel emboldened to speak up. This show delivers.
