Maggie Koosa, CEO of The Alchemists, which is a financial advisory firm that specializes in working with business owners and entrepreneurs joins Enterprise Radio. This episode of Enterprise Radio is working in association with the Financial Channel. Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Maggie Koosa discuss the following: * Why do you work with business owners and entrepreneurs? * Why would a business owner need a financial advisor? Don’t they just buy you stocks and bonds? * You’ve said that you are a paradigm-shifter in financial advising, what distinguishes you? * We hear the term “cashflow” a lot when it comes to start-up’s and businesses succeeding. Why is this so important? * What is a common misconception business owners have regarding planning for retirement? * Can you explain 1 do and 1 don’t for business owners with a 401k plan? * How can you help business owners pay less taxes? * Why should business owners opt in regarding workers comp? * You’ve said that you take a team approach to working with business owners, what does that mean? TIP: Have an exit strategy! That may be to sell the business, transfer it to a family member, sell it to key employees using an ESOP, retain ownership as a passive partner, or liquidate it. To maximize the upside, this must be a plan that is developed and not decided upon spontaneously. Remember, if you don’t have an exit strategy, then you don’t have a business, you have a job. Maggie Koosa, CEO of The Alchemists, has been helping business owners for more than 10 years. Prior to advising families and business owners, she taught high school mathematics for 12 years. She started her own firm in 2017 because she wanted to provide an elevated level of service with a paradigm-shifting approach to financial advising. She is licensed in all 50 states and her #1 focus is that she cares about her people, whom others call “clients” or “customers”. Unlike larger firms, she doesn’t work with everyone. If she did, she wouldn’t be able to give her people the individualized attention they want and need. She works with those who are most committed to securing their financial success. She wants to see her people send their kids to college, build towards a healthy retirement, and plan for quality of life. As such, she does not nickel and dime them with arbitrary fees. What does all that mean? * As a fiduciary, she will work with you to develop an appropriate and comprehensive financial plan for you, your business, and your family. * She will help you understand your insurance and investments by providing you as much education as you’d like, including events, webinars, and classes. * She will answer her phone and greet you by name when you call, even at night or on the weekend. * She will provide you with support and guidance during your times of need and concern. * She will call if/when something occurs in the stock market. * You will have access to Maggie and her resources (i.e. an extensive network of professionals). * You can sleep at night with the certainty that someone who cares about YOU and your loved ones is being mindful and keeping watch over your financial resources and planning for your future. She is a competitive athlete and a lifelong Girl Scout.

Karen Thomas, the president of Advanced TeleHealth Solutions and a national thought leader in the field of remote patient monitoring again joins Enterprise Radio. Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Karen Thomas discuss the following: * First, before we get into Medicare incentives, let’s discuss remote patient monitoring. What is remote patient monitoring, and what is it not? * In July, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has proposed changes to the Home Health Prospective Payment System so that home health agencies can include the cost of remote patient monitoring on their Medicare cost report forms. Why is this a big deal? * Industry experts are saying that this change will drive better results for patients by encouraging value over volume and removing incentives to provide unnecessary care. Do you agree? * Remote patient monitoring sounds like a big investment for home health agencies. Even though these costs will be allowable under the Medicare proposal, how does a home health agency – especially a smaller, independent agency with limited resources – overcome implementation barriers? * Who wins in all this, the home care agency or the home care patient? Summary: Medicare will soon reimburse home health agencies for remote patient monitoring services, which have been proven to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. If you are a home health agency that has not yet ventured into the remote patient monitoring arena, now is the time to do so. The fastest and easiest way to launch a remote patient monitoring initiative is to outsource the program to a firm such as Advanced TeleHealth Solutions, which has successfully been providing remote patient monitoring services to home health agencies for more than a decade. Karen Thomas is a certified management accountant and the president of Advanced TeleHealth Solutions, one of the leading telehealth monitoring companies in the U.S. Karen is a nationally renowned speaker, a lecturer for Missouri State University’s graduate-level Health Care Administration program, and a contributing author to, “Home Telehealth: Connecting Care Within the Community,” published by Royal Society of Medicine Press Ltd. Karen has appeared on numerous webinars and has spoken at dozens of conferences on the benefits of remote patient monitoring, generating enhanced clinical outcomes, patient engagement, and coordination of care. She is a member of the Missouri Governors Innovation Task Force, a past board member of the National Association for Home Care and Private Duty Home Care Association, a member of the American Telemedicine Association and the American Society on Aging, and a past ex-officio member of the advisory board of HealthCare Technology Association of America.
