Talk Ten Tuesdays
EXCLUSIVE: Coding Sequela to COVID-19
Show Notes

One day she’s consulting in Los Angeles. The next day she’s back in Indiana, with upcoming client calls scheduled at hospitals and physician practices in nearly every U.S. city and small town. Her frequent flyer miles would qualify for a round-trip to Mars.

High-flying and always in demand as a speaker, Deborah Grider came crashing down, diagnosed with COVID-19 earlier this year. She’s recovering now – enough so that she wrote a personal account of her COVID ordeal for ICD10monitor.  Grider will report on coding sequelae of COVID-19.
