My strengths are empathy, public speaking, networking and handling challenging conversations. I hope to gain a better understanding of how to price my business and assessment of my efforts. Overall I need to gain confidence in how to market myself and the value I can provide to people outside my family.

Angela Ingraham started the topic Quiz in Courses and BCPA Exam in the forum APHA Academy 100 Days to Launch <br>(Winter/Spring 2025) 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Hi Stephanie and fellow coursemates!
I know Stephanie said not to take the quiz in the courses now if we are sitting for the BCPA exam in March. Does that apply to only the quiz at the end or also to a quiz that is at the beginning or middle of a section?
For example, there is a quiz after the first lesson in Financial Basics. You can’t move on…[Read more]

Welcome, Michele!
Yes! I love your statement about life-long learners, so true!
I also get the silent observer personality because that is my natural personality too, I am way more introverted 🙂 Thank you for your introduction, I look forward to getting to know you more!
Thanks,

Sharon,
Your strengths and experiences will suit you well and you are in the right place to work on your goals! You will get a lot of material regarding marketing and networking opportunities and through our discussions it is helpful to hear what has worked and not worked for others.
Thank you for posting your self assessment!

My strengths include my extensive experience, genuine interest in helping others, and my ability to thrive on challenges. However, I recognize that I have weaknesses in the business aspects, particularly in marketing, and I sometimes struggle with consistency and attention to detail, which can be critical at times.

Karen Silber replied to the topic AMR ambulance bill in the forum General Conversation 4 months ago
Linda, being this was an emergency, this should be paid as in network. No one has time to try to find an in network provider in an urgent, emergency situation so I would fight for that. I’m sure you can get documentation to show the urgent need.

AnnMarie McIlwain replied to the topic AMR ambulance bill in the forum General Conversation 4 months ago
Linda, as you undoubtedly know, ambulance bills were not included in the No Surprises Act. I have been able to negotiate ambulance bills down with other providers by sharing the Medicare rate for the same trip (distance, medical needs, etc.).
Also, were there ambulance services that are in network in her geography? If so, did they have capacity…[Read more]

Has anyone been successful in negotiating a settlement with AMR for an out-of-network bill? If so, please give suggestions.
My client was transferred from an ER to another hospital in the same hospital network for urgent neurosurgery. No one checked and informed her that AMR was not in her UHC network. Her bill is $4000.

Hi, everyone. I’m arriving late to the party. Say HI if you want to, so I know who’s out there. Or remain a silent observer, if that suits you better. I’m an observer myself so I get this; however, today, I’m merely late to the party being I’m moving at a snail’s pace on this as I had previous commitments that just very recently commenced.
