Podcasts about clinical care

Welcome to "Labor & Delivery Debrief," the podcast where we tackle your toughest questions about childbirth and maternal health. Today, we're diving deep into a fascinating and critical topic sent in by one of our listeners, Sarah. Sarah asks: "Is it possible for a clinical diagnosis of chorioamnionitis to not be confirmed by placental histology? And if so, how is that possible?" This is a fantastic question that touches on the complexities of intrapartum clinical diagnosis of intraamniotic infection (IAI), also commonly known as chorioamnionitis. We'll explore the nuances of clinical versus histological findings, the diagnostic criteria, and why these two assessments don't always perfectly align. Get ready for a detailed discussion that will shed light on this important aspect of obstetric care.1. ACOG CO 712; 2017 (2025)2. Romero R, Pacora P, Kusanovic JP, et al.

In this on-site conversation from the AAO-HNSF 2025 Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO in Indianapolis, host Rahul K. Shah, MD, MBA, AAO-HNS/F EVP and CEO, sits down with Gregory J. Basura, MD, PhD, Chair of the AAO-HNSF Humanitarian Efforts Committee. They explore the intersection of neuroscience, clinical innovation, and global humanitarian outreach—from Dr. Basura's NIH-funded research in tinnitus neuroimaging to his transformative fellowship and capacity-building work across Africa and beyond. Listeners will hear how early mentorship inspired his lifelong commitment to global otolaryngology, how partnerships in Ghana and Cape Town evolved into the creation of the African Otological Society, and how this collaborative model is now expanding into South America. The episode is both a scientific deep-dive and a call to service, highlighting the power of sustainable global training and mentorship in our specialty

What happens when a powerhouse research enterprise, a statewide health system, and a relentless push for access all meet at the same table? Our conversation with Dr. David Miller, CEO of Michigan Medicine, opens the door to a candid look at how precision care, digital tools, and financial reality collide—and how smart leadership turns that collision into progress.We dig into the new map of Michigan Medicine: the academic medical center in Ann Arbor, integrated hospitals in Lansing and West Michigan, and partnerships that extend specialty expertise across the state. Then we follow the research-to-care pipeline, from NIH-backed labs to clinical trials to real-world therapies. You'll hear how next-generation sequencing is making targeted cancer treatments more accessible, and why histotripsy—a noninvasive, ultrasound-based approach to treating liver tumors—is a model for bringing breakthroughs from engineering benches to exam rooms.Technology is more than a buzzword here. Dr. Miller explains how generative AI is cutting documentation time with ambient notes, speeding routine approvals, and supporting clinical decisions, all while keeping a human in the loop. We talk training the next wave of physicians to be technology fluent, and how virtual visits and remote monitoring expand access without trading away empathy. On payment and policy, we confront the hard parts: Medicaid churn, prior authorization friction, and the need for value-based insurance design that lowers barriers to high-value care. The throughline is simple and urgent—make it easier for patients to get the right care at the right time, and align incentives so innovation actually reaches people.If you care about healthcare that is precise, humane, and actually reachable, this conversation will give you a practical, hopeful blueprint.

In this episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans speaks with T.K. Anand, Executive Vice President at Oracle, during Oracle AI World in Las Vegas. The discussion centers on Oracle's new AI Data Platform, a major initiative designed to help customers harness their own data to drive AI transformation. Anand outlines how Oracle's open, unified approach to managing enterprise data enables organizations to bring AI directly to their business processes, while also citing breakthrough developments in industry-specific applications.Reinventing with AIThe Big Themes:Data + AI = Business Reinvention: Enterprises cannot simply adopt AI as a bolt‑on; they must combine their private business data — workflows, applications, processes — with advanced models if they hope to reinvent themselves ahead of disruption. Anand notes that many AI/LLMs have been trained on public domain data and thus “know nothing about our customers' private data.” The AI Data Platform is designed to enable that union.Pre‑integrated with SaaS Applications: For customers of Oracle's large SaaS portfolio (e.g., Fusion, NetSuite, industry apps) the AI Data Platform offers tailored variants that are pre‑integrated with the application's data models and semantics. This means organizations get out‑of‑the-box predictive models, analytics, and agents aligned to their workflows, but still have the full platform underneath to extend or customize. This helps reduce time‑to‑value for companies using those applications.Full Stack Advantage: Oracle positions its differentiator as owning and integrating the full stack: cloud infrastructure (OCI including autonomous database), data and analytics platform, applications (SaaS) and now AI/agents. This end‑to‑end control enables closer integration between data assets, applications, and AI use cases. For example, having application workflow knowledge baked into the data platform allows faster mapping from business process to predictive agent.The Big Quote: “The AI Platform is all about helping our customers achieve AI transformation through the power of their own data."More from T.K.

Mind the (Future) Gap: Preparing for What's Next in Mental Health Special Live Episode from Lyra Breakthrough 2025In this special live episode of The WorkWell Podcast™, recorded at the Lyra Breakthrough Conference, Jen Fisher hosts a dynamic panel discussion exploring how AI, shifting demographics, and evolving expectations are reshaping mental health support in the workplace.Panel Experts:Dr. Tom Insel - Former Director of the National Institute of Mental Health and visionary behind the bold statement that "AI is to mental health what DNA was to cancer"Briana Duffy - Market President at Carelon Behavioral Health, witnessing mental health become a mainstream conversation across generationsDr. Alethea Varra - Senior Vice President of Clinical Care at Lyra Health, pioneering the integration of technology and clinical excellence in modern mental healthcare deliveryEpisode Highlights:Why AI represents a transformational force in mental healthcare, offering precision in diagnosis and treatment like never beforeThe critical difference between AI as a "GPS system" versus autonomous "Waymo" therapy - and why we're not ready for the latterHow predictive algorithms can identify individuals at risk for self-harm up to five months in advanceThe challenge of responsible AI implementation: why human oversight is essential to prevent dangerous "drift" in AI responsesYoung people now listing "been in therapy" as a requirement on dating profiles - and what this means for workplace expectationsWhy 70% of students prefer community-based care over traditional one-on-one therapyThe generational divide: younger workers prioritizing mental health support versus older workers' "tough it out" mentality - and how to leverage both perspectivesThe shift from "mental health" to "mental fitness" - expanding the conversation beyond crisis care to preventative wellnessValue-based care revolution: paying for outcomes and results rather than time spentReal ROI data: 30% reduction in overall healthcare spend for engaged members in sophisticated care programsQuotable Moments:"AI is like the number one use of therapy. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I put this into a timeline where I think about how we did navigation... we had these paper maps to go on a trip, and now we use GPS. The question is, are we ready for Waymo?" - Dr. Tom Insel"My job as a therapist so very often is to sit down with a human in front of me and to tell them something that is actually not going to make them happy.

There's been a massive gap in oncology where people who have been responsible for a dramatic increase in the standard of care have lacked a solid understanding of the business, payment and policy constructs required to deliver it. Dr. Stephen Schleicher has spent the early part of his career working to fill that gap.Dr. Schleicher entered medical school with an interest in oncology, anchored by an appreciation for the psychological toll cancer can have on a person, their family and caregivers that he gained from parents who were both psychologists. During his internal medicine residency at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Dr. Schleicher also worked at McKinsey and earned his MBA at Harvard Business School as part of a fully-funded fellowship. Through this combined experience, he started to develop a niche in the oncology space where clinical, business and policy decisions intersect, at a time when value-based care was just starting to gain momentum.After a fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Dr. Schleicher joined Tennessee Oncology, one of the nation's largest community-based cancer care practices, and shortly after became medical director of value-based care at OneOncology, a large community oncology network founded by Tennessee Oncology that spans multiple states. He subsequently returned his focus to Tennessee Oncology where he served as chief medical officer for two years and still practices as a breast cancer medical oncologist. Dr. Schleicher is also a board member and executive committee member at the Community Oncology Alliance.To set the stage for a Healthcare is Hard series focused on Oncology, Dr. Schleicher talked to Keith Figlioli about both the clinical and business trends influencing cancer care. Topics they discussed include:Community providers vs. health systems. For Dr. Schleicher, the ultimate goal is to give cancer patients the personal feel of a community clinic with the resources – including access to precision medicine and clinical trials – that have historically only existed at academic medical centers. While Dr. Schleicher firmly believes that nearly all cancer care should be delivered outside the hospital, he recognizes the expertise for certain conditions – like rare sarcomas – that only exists at academic medical centers and discussed the dynamics of “coopetition” that exists between health systems and community providers in markets across the country.Oncology's cost center. Drugs already account for a significant portion of spending on oncology care, and with dozens of new FDA approvals for cancer therapies each year – some with extremely high costs – this trend will continue. But there are many other variables contributing to the large percentage of spending that goes towards drugs, including the shift from infusions to more oral medication. Dr. Schleicher explains how reliance on oral medication introduces PBMs and specialty pharmacies into the equation, which can add cost and complexity, and sometimes slow the speed of critical care.The value based care dilemma. Dr. Schleicher talked about how successful The CMS Oncology Care Model (OCM) was at optimizing care for Tennessee Oncology's patients. He says hospitalizations and ER visits went from 20%-30% of costs before OCM to less than 10% now. The remaining 90% of costs now goes towards drugs – even when used appropriately following pathways. The dilemma is that there isn't too much more room for cost improvement in care delivery. Dr. Schleicher discussed how payers need a better understanding of how to incentivize providers around costs they can control, while allowing for expensive therapies if they're the right drug at the right time to improve costs and outcomes in the long run.To hear Stephen and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.

226: Nutrition Training for Healthcare Providers: Bridging the Gap Host: Dr. Ali Novitsky Welcome to another exciting episode of the Muscles & Mindset Podcast! Dr. Ali Novitsky is thrilled to dive into a topic that is both her passion and profession: nutrition. This episode is particularly special as it focuses on bridging the gap in nutrition knowledge for healthcare providers. Introduction Dr. Novitsky begins the episode by sharing a bit about her background and lifelong fascination with nutrition. From a young age, she was deeply interested in how food and exercise impact our bodies. This passion led her to accumulate a vast library of nutrition books and spend weekends discussing diets at GNC. Her journey has been shaped by personal experiences, including being an overweight child, which fueled her interest in nutrition and exercise. The Importance of Nutrition in Healthcare She discusses the critical role nutrition plays in both preventing and treating diseases. Despite its importance, traditional medical training often lacks comprehensive nutrition education, leaving many healthcare providers feeling unprepared to offer nutritional advice to their patients. Dr. Novitsky emphasizes that while doctors are trained to save lives, they are not typically trained to be nutrition experts. Unique Approach Over the years, she has developed a unique approach to nutrition, which she calls "Mindful Macros." This program is designed to make nutrition simple and effective. Dr. Novitsky believes that understanding and implementing basic nutrition strategies can save lives and aims to empower healthcare providers with the knowledge and tools needed to offer sound nutritional advice to their patients. Introducing the Eight Week Nutition Training Program She is excited to announce a new eight-week training program specifically designed for healthcare providers. This program will cover everything she has learned and implemented in her coaching programs over the past several decades. The training will be live, offering participants the opportunity to interact with her and ask questions. Additionally, esteemed colleagues like Dr. Matthea Rentea will contribute her expertise, particularly in areas like obesity medicine and post-bariatric care. Overcoming Obstacles Dr. Novitsky addresses several obstacles that healthcare providers face when it comes to nutrition: Lack of Training: Most medical schools do not offer extensive nutrition education. Time Constraints: Healthcare providers are often too busy to prioritize their own nutrition, let alone advise patients. Simplifying: The plethora of nutrition strategies out there can be overwhelming and at times, contradictory. She assures listeners that her program is designed to make nutrition advice simple and actionable, even for the busiest healthcare providers. Program Details The eight-week program will officially start on October 7th, but early enrollees will gain immediate access to bonus content, including the emotional eating and body composition training series. Participants will also receive a comprehensive provider nutrition training manual and a nutrition audit guide, making it easy to implement these strategies in their practice. Conclusion Dr. Novitsky wraps up the episode by encouraging healthcare providers to sign up for the program. She believes that by bridging the gap in nutrition knowledge, a significant impact can be made on public health. The program offers 12 CMEs for physicians and provides year-long access to all content. For more details and to enroll, visit [thefitcollective.com/nutrition-training]. Thank you for tuning in, and Dr. Novitsky can't wait to help transform your approach to nutrition and healthcare! Until next time, stay healthy and keep learning!
