We at Prosper Beyond have the privilege of calling Asheville, NC home. We were incredibly proud to see Dr. Shannon Dowler, who has treated patients in Western North Carolina for over 20 years, interviewed by the New York Times about her experience working with uninsured people from Appalachia.

She shares what Medicaid expansion has meant for rural patients and providers, and her concerns about new federal restrictions that could roll back coverage for hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians.

Her insights on work requirements, administrative burdens, and the unique challenges facing rural providers are essential listening for anyone working in healthcare policy right now.

You can listen on the New York Times website or YouTube:

Does the prospect of negotiating payer contracts for your practice feel daunting? You're not alone!

We want to lift up one success story from a small pediatrics and adolescent care practice in the Southeast we worked with:

"Our practice had not renegotiated our insurance contracts in years. We weren't sure if consulting with Prosper Beyond was our best option but we did and we couldn't be happier. Their team exceeded our expectations and our ROI has been outstanding. Contract negotiations are a complicated dance... and they know all the steps! I couldn't recommend Prosper Beyond more!"
