Dr Andrea Brault announced as chair-elect of the EDPMA

Dr Andrea Brault was elected to a second term as EDPMA Chairperson, where she will help lead the organization’s Board of Directors. EDPMA is one of the nation’s largest trade associations for professional service providers in emergency medicine. Its members deliver (or directly support) health care for nearly half the 146 million patients visiting U.S. emergency departments each year.

EDPMA focuses on issues that impact the business of emergency medicine. The association works with lawmakers to help shape federal and state policy. They provide cutting-edge education and toolkits. And they create opportunities to collaborate and discuss emerging trends with some of the industry’s brightest minds.

“The landscape of emergency medicine continues to evolve,” explains Dr Andrea Brault, “And many physician groups look toward EDPMA to stay informed on key issues such as shrinking reimbursement rates, increasing costs, and heightened regulation.”

Dr Brault is a prominent voice in emergency medicine, known for her work on several state and national committees – including the EDPMA Federal Health Policy Committee, the ACEP Reimbursement Committee, and the NSA Task Force (a collaboration between ACEP and EDPMA).

Dr Brault is a recognized expert in emergency medicine reimbursement and practice improvement, with more than 20 years of clinical experience and a master’s degree in Medical Management. She is also President and CEO of Brault Practice Solutions, where she serves as a strategic advisor to clients in emergency medicine and other acute care specialties.

“I’m excited to continue serving alongside the diverse leadership group at EDPMA,” says Dr Brault. “The organization has done so much great work in its 25-year history, and I look forward to continuing its mission to advocate for ED physicians and provide education on the business of emergency medicine.” Business Wire
