Nursing home quality and policy expert Jodi Eyigor says the end of the public health emergency could be dangerous for providers, but not if they prepare and collaborate in the right ways. In fact, “something really beautiful” could come of it, she says in this podcast moderated by McKnight’s Executive Editor James M. Berklan.

She shares what’s at stake, the keys to overcoming hurdles and why she thinks “something really beautiful” could be in store for providers in this podcast moderated by McKnight’s Executive Editor James M. Berklan.
