UVA Health's new CFO shares her view on advocacy efforts.
In this episode of HL Shorts UVA Health's incoming CFO Stephanie Schnittger answers how she views the role of the CFO in influencing policy and advocating for the financial sustainability of hospitals both at the Federal and the state level.
She approaches financial leadership with a cautious eye on federal and state reimbursement models, especially Medicaid, warning against over-reliance on current structures.
"I think it's fair to say there's a heightened degree of uncertainty at the federal level," she said. "Don't get too comfortable with this reimbursement structure because it could change."
