Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 16 November
Query:
The article I am working on will focus on the latest
technologies being incorporated into hearing aids, as well as
whether or not the prices of the latest hearing aids have come
down in the past 3 to 5 years. I am looking to explain what
features and functions someone looking to upgrade their hearing
aid should look for (such as smartphone/smartwatch control), and
how much extra, if anything, they should expect to pay for these
newest features.
Requirements:
I am looking to interview one or two hearing aid experts that do
NOT represent a specific hearing aid company. Independent
audiologists, hearing aid experts, and related
doctors/professionals would be ideal.

Query:
Last month HHS, FBI and CISA warned of "an increased and
imminent cybercrime threat to U.S. hospitals and healthcare
providers," via ransomware exploits Ryuk and Conti.
Our practice management readers would like to know:
- Are these new threats significantly different than previous
threats, requiring new measures to guard systems?
- Might relaxed federal HIPAA standards allowing telehealth to
be performed via uncertified devices and systems during the
pandemic offer new vulnerabilities?
- If so, how might practices defend themselves while still
keeping their telehealth outreach?
- If readers have not been paying attention over the past year,
what new tools for defending against these attacks might they
have missed?

Let's say a patient suffers a life-threatening event in an

Our medical coding and billing readers would like to know:
Assuming the office MD uses critical care codes, how would the
office visit be billed?
It has been suggested that CPT rules prohibit critical care
billing separate from the ER/hospital bill. Does that mean the
office MD can't bill at all?
Does it change anything is the office MD treats the patient at
the ER as well?

Media Outlet: APTA Magazine
Deadline: 11:00 PM EST - 17 November
Query:
APTA Magazine, published by the American Physical Therapy
Association, is running multiple articles on "Physical
Therapists and Physical Therapist Assistants as Change Agents."
We're looking at two different areas: (1) In practice settings,
and (2) domestically and internationally.
Regarding practice settings, our editorial calendar describes
the concept: "Students often are advised to be 'change agents'
and that the profession is counting on them to do so. Yet the
tools and techniques needed to function effectively as change
agents are seldom taught. What skills and knowledge are needed
to advocate for the profession? Similarly, what can established
PTs and PTAs do to become change agents?"
Practice settings span the gamut from private practices to
hospitals, home health, assisted living facilities, and more.
The "Domestically and Internationally" article is described:
"Many PTs and PTAs are finding ways to reach out to help not
only their communities, but also the world at large. How are
they seeking to change the world? What knowledge and skills do
they need to be effective and, at the same time, be culturally
sensitive and respectful to other groups?"
APTA Magazine is an award-winning monthly magazine with a
circulation of 100,000.
Requirements:
We're looking for physical therapists and physical therapist
assistance who can address these topics and can provide specific
examples. Preferably, the PTs and PTAs will be members of the
American Physical Therapy Association.
The interview can be conducted in writing via email, but our
preference is for a phone (or Zoom) interview which should last
25-45 minutes.

What are the best ways to measure the ROI of HR automation?
Sure, the hours HR managers save on manual tasks that can be
automated with the right HRIS are obvious -- onboarding,
benefits administration, migrating employee data from one system
to another, etc.
But what are the less obvious but potentially higher-impact ways
an organization can help measure ROI of their HRIS? Is it
reduced employee turnover? Lower recruiting costs? Happier,
more engaged employees?
I'm looking to hear from HR managers, specialists, generalists,
CHROs, etc, ESPECIALLY those who HAVE MEASURED THE ROI OF HR
AUTOMATION AT THEIR COMPANY. First person experience with
actionable tips is what will make this article shine.

It's fair to say that this holiday season will be different than
any that we've ever experienced. As COVID cases continue to
surge around the United States, healthcare experts are advising
people to think carefully about whether they should gather
together for traditional holiday events. The stress of making
these decisions and, potentially, not being able to share the
holidays in-person with loved ones, will likely take a toll on
many Americans who have already missed out on many traditional
events throughout the year. What should HR professionals and
organizational leaders be doing to help employees navigate the
stressful holiday season? I'm looking for input from
organizations about the plans they have to address stress over
the holidays, as well as from mental health experts who can
weigh in on the topic.

Query:
CNN had this sobering report: Millions of White voters are once
again showing who they are and -- spoiler -- it's not really
that great for America, but in particular for Black and brown
people. The miasmic uncertainty hanging over the 2020
presidential election, as hundreds of thousands of legal votes
in key battleground states continue to be counted, is damning,
even if Democrat Joe Biden ekes out a victory. For one thing,
despite four years of President Donald Trump -- that is, of a
man who has made White nationalism a central part of his
administration and whose abject negligence in the face of a
pandemic has contributed to more than 230,000 dead -- millions
of voters are turning out for him. White voters, especially.
"Even if Black male GOP support increases in 2020, most of the
responsibility for a second Trump victory will be attributable
to White voters." --We've seen white people stand with Black
people in 2020 and demand that Black Lives Matter. But, from the
exit polls, it seems lip service. What do you make of this??
Looking forward to your response in an email ONLY. We can't call
you or take calls.

After a roller-coaster summer of unprecedented volatility, U.S.
employee engagement appears to have settled down. Employee
engagement has been a steady metric without sharp ups and downs
since Gallup began tracking it in 2000 -- with the exception of
2020. This year, engagement levels have fluctuated more than
ever before. But after a wild summer, affected by various
combined stressors including the ongoing pandemic and related
restrictions, mounting political tension as the election nears,
and societal unrest surrounding racial tensions, engagement has
reverted back to pre-COVID-19 levels. Why? For ref:

negative attitude we carry around with ourselves, the false
assumptions we make, the reactive nature of our personality?
What costs do we not realize we are paying in our low awareness
about how our attitude is negatively received?
What would help us learn about how we are received by people
close to us, people we care how they view us, people with which
we have to improve interactions and strangers because, well,
they are human and worthy of civility?
What most often stands in the way of our attitude as it is and
what it can be, maybe needs to be and maybe we want it to be?
PUBLICATION: I run different publications that this could and
will be run in, two of which could be the Red Diamonds
Newsletter (on Medium) or Reputation Specialist Essays (also on
Medium). I will then share the article on Twitter and LinkedIn.
I have interviewed approximately 120 professionals in the last

Query:
Seeking experts such as a sports psych or other
psych/high-performance expert, general psychologist or expert in
the field of boundaries and/or expert who works a lot with women
in their 20s-40s to provide insight for the following story:
Where to Put Your Energy in 2021
2020 was draining (to say the least), and felt like a
never-ending onslaught of things we wanted and needed to pay
attention to--yet also felt drained by trying to keep up with it
all. As we start 2021, let's help readers create a road map of
sorts for how to think about their energy allocation and create
their own strategy to ensure they are putting it where they need
it most, etc. Let's cover over-arching idea of mental, physical,
emotional energy--how do they relate to each other, what impacts
them, etc. Then could potentially break it up into sections by
the main large "categories"--career, relationships,
community/world issues, training, personal mental health &
wellness, etc. Within each, describing what factors affect your
energy and how to handle/what to consider, etc. What are the
benefits are to being really intentional about where you place
your energy? We'd also like to cover boundaries: What are they,
why are they important when it comes to where you put your
energy, how to identify where you need them/what kind of
boundaries to set against common energy sucks, etc.
After we've covered all the main categories that vie for your
energy and how to determine how much you can reasonably take on.
AKA: experts recommend creating a list of the most important
priorities--for some that might be career advancement, for
others it might be being the best mom or partner, for others it
might be hitting the PR they've been eyeing for years. Then
exactly how to portion out your energy based on your priorities,
and maybe how to carve out smaller, finite holes to address
other areas that are important to you but not in your top TK
priorities. ie., if social change/world issues are super
important to you but you feel overwhelmed like you don't have
time to devote to them on a daily/weekly basis, here's how to
address that. Same with maybe friendships, etc. How can you
still put energy toward them in some way, without it becoming
counterproductive?]]
Requirements:
Experts should be sports psychologist or other
psych/high-performance expert, general psychologist or expert in
the field of boundaries and/or expert who works a lot with women
in their 20s-40s. Can provide insight by phone or email.
