Have you ever received a subpoena and weren’t quite sure how to handle it? 

In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Tracy Masiello, a group practice owner and certified mediator, about handling subpoenas as a group practice owner. We discussed the importance of clear policies, procedures, and training for clinicians to effectively manage subpoenas. Dr. Masiello also debunked subpoena myths, explained the consequences of ignoring subpoenas, and provided guidance on how to respond to them. Join us to learn more about:

• The importance of having clear policies, procedures, and training in place for handling subpoenas in a group practice setting.

• Debunking common myths surrounding subpoenas and clarifying the consequences of ignoring them.

• Guidance on how to respond to subpoenas effectively and ethically.

• Understanding the ethical considerations when testifying or sharing client records.

• The difference between being a fact witness and an expert witness in legal proceedings.

If you're a group practice owner or clinician, this episode is a must-listen for valuable insights on managing subpoenas. Don't forget to check out the resources shared by Dr. Masiello for further learning and support.
