This podcast on Female phenotype in Autism and implications for clinical care in psychiatry explores the autistic characteristics in women and girls - often referred to as the female phenotype - which suggests that autistic women and girls have characteristics that are different from the traditional profile observed in males and boys and may be missed. For example, females may have more social skills and are more likely to mask their difficulties and camouflage autistic traits. While the features of female phenotype fit into current diagnostic criteria, they may be expressed in ways that exclude them from traditional methods of assessing and diagnosing autism. Moreover, because research on autistic females is lacking, our understanding is limited. For example, there may be more mental health challenges and burn out from camouflaging, and this has clinical implications for both assessment and management.

"In this candid conversation, Aaron Werner and Chris Wolfe reflect on a recent in-practice coaching session that sparked major transformations—from exam room communication to dry eye (now ocular surface disease) strategy and systems. They break down how simplifying processes, improving handoffs with inexpensive headset tech, and creating team ownership over care protocols led to immediate gains—including consistent product sales and tighter clinical flow. Aaron also shares a powerful mindset shift: how adding suspense to patient conversations increases engagement and follow-through. Plus, they tease a future discussion about tracking metrics and the hidden toll of decision fatigue in high-performance practices.

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.
How prepared should you be? Maybe Over-prepared? What to do with your trainees and why it wise to buy time (if you can).
CancerNetwork, in a partnership with KidneyCAN, spoke with 2 genitourinary oncologists, Elizabeth P. Henske, MD, and Jason Muhitch, PhD, about how advocacy and funding through interdisciplinary collaboration between patient advocates, researchers, and physicians have resulted in numerous clinical breakthroughs in kidney cancer. Henske is a professor of medicine at the Harvard Medical School, an associate member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, director of the Center for LAM Research and Clinical Care, and a physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Muhitch is an associate professor of Oncology, co-chair of the Genitourinary Translational Research Group, deputy director of Graduate Studies, and a member of the Department of Immunology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. First, the state of kidney cancer advocacy was discussed, with Muhitch emphasizing multidisciplinary collaboration and the role of conferences, such as the Kidney Cancer Research Summit (KCRS) and the International Kidney Cancer Symposium, in bringing these groups together. Henske emphasized the strength of the advocacy network for kidney cancer, particularly as a mechanism for exchanging information, offering patient support and education, and facilitating research. Next, funding was touched upon, with Henske expressing her interest in conveying the importance and urgency of kidney cancer research to Congress. Muhitch agreed, suggesting that the meetings with congressional offices offer opportunities to explain how funding can impact kidney cancer outcomes and scientist training, as well as the strength of patient advocacy in influencing Congress. Muhitch and Henske then discussed the Kidney Cancer Research Program, which has enabled significant increases in funding for kidney cancer research, helped to facilitate clinical breakthroughs for common kidney cancer types, and set a foundation for exploring different kidney cancer variants. The discussion then turned to encouraging research for renal cell carcinoma , which Muhitch expressed can be attributed to partnership award recipients who went on to conduct research evaluating biomarkers predictive of patient responses to immunotherapies. Regarding additional funding mechanisms, Henske and Muhitch discussed numerous private foundations providing smaller research grants. Henske explained that these smaller grants are instrumental in taking the first steps to explore rarer kidney cancer subtypes, with Muhitch explaining that the earlier funding can formulate research that leads to greater funding from the Kidney Cancer Research Program. KidneyCAN is a nonprofit organization with a mission to accelerate cures for kidney cancer through education, advocacy, and research funding. Learn more about KidneyCAN's mission and work here.

Sometimes it is good to give your patients (or parents) some options regarding their care (some people call it shared decision making). How a short conversation can help you better understand your patients and their needs.
Many clinicians believe that simply offering quality care is enough to grow their practices, but this isn't always the case. If you're a clinic owner, a contractor, or a clinician, you may find yourself stuck in a cycle where despite your best efforts, patient flow and revenue generation don't seem to match up with the quality of care you provide. When clinics rely solely on word-of-mouth or outdated marketing techniques, they often fall short of reaching their full potential. Darryll E. Gardley, an experienced physical therapist, clinic owner, and mentor, joins us to share his expertise on how to break free from this mold and build a thriving, revenue-generating practice. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER: How to strategically communicate your clinic's unique offerings to attract your ideal patient base. Proven in-house strategies to empower your staff and boost clinic performance. Outsourcing tips to maximize efficiency and maintain a balanced work-life integration.

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!
