🎙️Co-host @HealthcareFraudShield
Mandi is a licensed social worker and clinical investigator with Healthcare Fraud Shield, where she specializes in detecting and investigating healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse. With roughly 10 years of experience practicing social work in clinical settings and 3 years’ experience as an auditor, analyst, and fraud investigator, Mandi blends her clinical experience with a beginners’ mind – approaching each case with a fresh curiosity and unique perspective.
Mandi excels at synthesizing data – bringing together clinical details, billing trends, and investigative insights into a clear and actionable picture. She values a life-long approach to learning and loves to share her insights as co-host of the HCFS podcast, where she seeks to simplify the complex with a touch of humor.
When she’s not following data trails, Mandi finds balance in the garden, on the yoga mat, or hanging out with her two dachshunds—Frankie and Sammy—who ensure she never misses a delivery from her mail carrier.
