EMS is often the forgotten link in the healthcare delivery chain—but that oversight comes with real costs.

In this episode, Kim Godden, Vice President at Superior Air Ground Ambulance, shares her journey from CASA advocate to healthcare legal and compliance leader. She unpacks the power of advocacy in EMS and how a single form—the Physician Certification Statement (PCS)—helped cut red tape, reduce appeals, and improve patient outcomes across Illinois.

You’ll discover:

• How EMS is being left out of key healthcare finance conversations

• Why the PCS form matters for Medicaid, Medicare, and transport compliance

• The hidden impact of regulatory gaps on non-emergency ambulance care

• What healthcare executives must do to ensure EMS is supported, funded, and integrated

• How legal, finance, and government relations leaders can drive better care through smart policy

This episode is a must-listen for healthcare finance executives, compliance officers, legal advisors, and public policy advocates working toward a more efficient, more equitable healthcare system.
