Tania Rodrigues Named Medical Group Colleague of the Month

Tania Rodrigues, Practice Supervisor at the Mandell MS Center in the Hartford Market, has been named the Medical Group Colleague of the Month.

Tania has been an incredible asset to the Neurology Service Line for the last year and a half, bringing the same dedication and excellence she demonstrated in her previous role as Practice Coordinator for the Orthopedic Service Line. Recently, she developed a process to collect copay assistance payments for infusion patients, resulting in $34,000 raised in just one week, with over $200,000 collected fiscal year to date. This initiative significantly reduced patient costs and improved key balance metrics and was an outstanding example of embodying the Core Values of Stewardship and Commitment to Those Experiencing Poverty.

Tania demonstrates Reverence through her respectful, compassionate approach to patients and colleagues. She champions Justice by ensuring financial hardship isn’t a barrier to care and upholds Integrity in every decision she makes. Her attention to detail also promotes Safety, reducing errors and confusion in a critical area of patient support. Tania is a true embodiment of our Core Values, and her unwavering commitment to easing financial hardship for patients and supporting those in need is nothing short of inspiring.

Congratulations, Tania!
