Introducing Dr. Pringl Miller, a General Surgeon, also with a Fellowship in Hospice and Palliative Medicine, as well as Clinical Medical Ethics. Dr. Pringl is the Founder and Executive Director of Physician Just Equity, an organization created to help empower doctors through complex work conflicts. In this episode Dr. Pringl discusses the problem of physician inequity and maltreatment of doctors especially among healthcare leaders, highlighting the negative impacts on the healthcare industry. Top Takeaways • [06:48] Women and underrepresented people in Medicine and Surgery seem to be more vulnerable to harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. Usually, these situations are unrelated to their clinical quality or work proficiency. • [10:56] Lessons from failure: It's important to understand the culture and engage in proactive communication with colleagues to minimize misunderstanding. Also, remember that not every environment is going to be supportive of your authentic self and it's better to part ways amicably. • [14:23] When faced with such challenging situations, it is important to avoid going into conversations hot but to take time and understand what happened, and be sure that the cultural values in that workplace align with yours. • [17:13] Tools for building intimate connections: Respect for colleagues, Active Listening, and Aligning with what gives people meaning. • [21:18] Best 'Aha' moment: Moving from clinical work to focus on her foundation gave a lightness, and Dr. Pringl realized that it was because she left an environment where there was a constant expectation for her to fail. • [27:40] Ongoing changes in the healthcare industry: There is a heightened awareness of health inequity and the need for health justice as the pandemic brought to light some of the racial inequities in the healthcare system. • [33:28] Professionals need to be encouraged to move into healthcare by improving the workplace treatment of doctors, especially the underrepresented groups of doctors; this alone is a major reason for the mass exit of healthcare professionals. • [37:05] Dr. Pringl is inspired by her work to lead by example, and this passion helps her inspire workers in her organization. • [40:45] Dr. Pringl's message to herself in the past is "it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game". To herself in the future, she hopes all her challenges have helped her grow productively. • [42:07] Dr. Pringl encourages listeners to reach out and offer support through the Physician Just Equity website. Key Quotes: "Not everything that is faced can be changed but nothing can be changed until it is faced" - James Baldwin "40% of women leave Medicine altogether or go to part-time within 6 years of completing their training" "We are all stories" "If you're not being allowed to shine and to thrive, there's something wrong with your workplace environment" Connect: Find | Dr. Pringl Miller LinkedIn – Dr. Pringl Miller Twitter - @equitydocs --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/healthcarequalitycast/message

This week I discuss an article entitled, "Disclosure of Individual Surgeon's Performance Rates During Informed Consent." This topic was discussed on Twitter and I decided to read more. The article presented a very comprehensive look at the issue and discussed the pros and cons of implementation. Overall, the data collection is generally poor quality and difficult to compare across different facilities. It is also difficult to present this data to patients with the appropriate context. Obviously, however, Physicians should be open and honest about their abilities as this allows patients to make autonomous, informed decisions.

This week I'm tackling a very contentious issue in the world of healthcare. Should we abandon the use of the term "Provider." I present an article that was recently featured in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) entitled, "Promoting Trust and Morale by Changing How the Word Provider Is Used". The author raising some very good points about how the term Provider is vague and takes into account neither the various levels and styles of training nor the vastly different approaches to providing care. The author makes the point that we are very specific when it comes to informing patients who participates in their care when dealing with physicians-in-training. Patients deserve transparency. Clinicians deserve to proudly represent their respective fields. I think this article makes several fantastic arguments for why we should abandon the term "Provider" and replace it with either professionals titles or a collective term such as clinician.

"Professionalism" is a term and concept that is used frequently in healthcare settings. The medical students, resident physicians and attending physicians are often judged on their professionalism. However, too often, this concept of professionalism is not standardized. Certain organizations do delineate their opinions and standards. Unfortunately, professionalism is often a subjective judgement by those in positions of authority. This allows it to be used a weapon; a form of legalized discrimination. In this episode, I talk about several concerns for trainees attempting to navigate this system. Professionalism should not hinge upon self-expression. Going forward, we must either standardize this concept or limit its use in certain settings. Increasing diversity in the healthcare workforce and especially in leadership positions is key to combatting weaponized professionalism.

The article was written by Theresa Williamson, M.D., C. Rory Goodwin, M.D., Ph.D., and Peter A. Ubel, M.D. This article defines and discusses the "minority tax" that is levied so frequently towards minority academic clinicians. This minority tax leads to an increased work load, increased stress and decreased promotion rates. It likely contributes to a high attrition rate of minority physicians from academic medicine.

Every week I hope that the information presented helps shape your world-view and empowers you to provide more equitable and ethical care to your patients. This week I break down the things I take into consideration when navigating a complex ethical situation. How we approach these conversations dictates how they end. Personally, I like to start by attempting to see things from the patient's perspective. Then I try to discuss my perspective and opinions with a trusted colleague. Departmental and facility policies and protocols may provide some guidance as well. Looping in a "patient advocate" or risk-management can mitigate some adverse outcomes along the way. Ultimately, a structured consideration of many different factors based upon patient goals, history, ethnicity, culture, etc. will help provide the most suitable course of action.

At some point, physicians-in-training will have patients that would prefer to be seen, examined, or treated by a "real doctors." It is important to attempt to understand these patient's concerns and level of understanding on how the healthcare system works. In this episode, I look at these events from the perspective of the patient, trainee, and attending physician. It is important to prioritize patient autonomy, as well as maintaining an appropriate and supportive relationship with residents and other healthcare providers.

Let's talk about autonomy. It is one of the 4 standard principles of medical ethics, and personally, it is my favorite. Thankfully medicine moved away from paternalism and is now actually seeking patient preference and informed decision making. What does autonomy really mean? What does it mean for patients? What does it mean for physicians and healthcare providers?

This week I am reviewing an article from the Journal of the American Medical Association, entitled, "Mandating COVID-19 Vaccines." This incredibly thoughtful and comprehensive piece discussed some of the pros and cons that policy-makers must consider when decided when and if to implement COVID-19 Vaccine mandates. Key take away points include: 1. Currently the mRNA vaccines available in the US are under emergency use authorization. (It would be a bit premature to mandate a vaccine under EUA). 2. There are already certain vaccine mandates in place. (Childhood vaccines and Influenza vaccines for healthcare workers.) 3. Businesses have some leeway under the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to compel employees to submit COVID test results as a condition of employment.

Who do you want at your deathbed? We do not like to think about such things, yet we will all die, and wrestling with such finitude can actually make our lives richer. Rabbi Rami's guest this week is Lydia Dugdale MD, an associate professor of medicine and director of the Center for Clinical Medical Ethics at Columbia University. She is an internal medicine primary care doctor and a medical ethicist. Dr. Dugdale is a frequent contributor to Spirituality & Health, and her new book, The Lost Art of Dying (July 2020), explores hopeful perspectives on death and dying—and living with intention—via the lost medieval practice of ars moriendi. Ars moriendi were originally two texts from the medieval era and when taken in the context of the Bubonic Plague, death was literally all around. The idea is you do not know when death will come upon you, so you need to always be ready and prepare for a good death. It sounds morbid, but doing the work can make life more meaningful. Take, for example, reconciling with family before it is too late. Dugdale finished her book prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, and while it is thankfully not the Plague, death is again front and center in our culture. Dr. Dugdale and Rabbi Rami discuss, for example, the important difference between dying alone and lonely dying. At the height of the pandemic, she reports working in the hospital and seeing, due to the shortage of PPE that would have allowed closer human contact, patients dying in a very lonely way, Dugdale. “To have patients die and have their last contact be through an iPad, it was a tragedy not only for the patients and for their families, but also for the doctors and nurses.” So what happens when we die?

Outsized Impact of COVID19 on Minority Communities: Podcast with Monica Peek and Alicia Fernandez

This was a remarkable podcast. Eric and I were blown away by the eloquence of our guests, who were able to speak to this moment in which our country is hurting in so many ways. Today's topic is the impact of COVID19 on minority communities, but we start with a check in about George Floyd's murder and subsequent protests across the country. Our guest Monica Peek, Associate Professor of Medicine and Director of Research at the MacLean Center of Clinical Medical Ethics at the University of Chicago, notes right off the bat: COVID19 and the reaction to Floyd are related. The covid epidemic has created an economic crisis, a heightened level of worry, and a disproportionate number of deaths among the African American community. When we add COVID on top of the long history of police brutality that has been heightened over the last several years that has been ignored by the federal government - in that context, it's not surprising that we're seeing protesters put their lives on the line to stand up for what they believe in. These protesters are putting their lives on the line due to the twin risks of reprisals from police or national guard, as well as the risk of acquiring COVID during a protest. As we turn later to the topic of COVID19 and impact on minority communities, Alicia Fernandez, Professor of Medicine at UCSF and Director of the UCSF Latinx Center of Excellence, notes that so many people reach for a biologic rationale for the excess exposure and mortality among minority communities - it's a genetic factor, it's racial/ethnic differences in ACE receptors, or it's the higher rates of diabetes and kidney disease among minority communities. How is it then that Latinos, and immigrants in particular, who tend to be younger and healthier, have higher mortality rates? What COVID19 is exposing are the underlying disparities in social determinants of health. For example, Africans Americans and Latinos represent a disproportionate share of essential workers, are more likely to live together in multigenerational households, and may reside in areas with less access to testing and high quality hospital care. We turn finally, to what we can do. As Monica says, "This is the fight of our lives. And this may be our last fight." Alicia notes that we need better reporting about detailed race, ethnicity, and language of people impacted by COVID for public health reasons. We talk about the need for professional interpreters for all goals of care conversations with patients (and Yael Shenker and Alicia's must read article for all clinicians on this topic). And we return to Doug White's framework that persons who reside in areas with a high Area of Deprivation Index score get a boost in their chances of obtaining scarce treatments for COVID. Finally, I encourage you all to watch this YouTube video of the song Seriously (song choice for the Podcast), sung by Leslie Odom Junior (Aaron Burr in the original Hamilton), about how Barak Obama might have reacted aloud to the 2016 election. It's speaks to this moment as well. The link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI8TCA3fJcs -@AlexSmithMD

She is Associate Professor of Medicine and Director of the Center for Clinical Medical Ethics at Columbia University. Prior to her 2019 move to Columbia, she was the Associate Director of the Program for Biomedical Ethics and founding Co-Director of the Program for Medicine, Spirituality, and Religion at Yale School of Medicine. She edited Dying in the Twenty-First Century, a volume that articulates a bioethical framework for a contemporary art of dying, and is author of The Lost Art of Dying: Reviving Forgotten Wisdom (forthcoming from HarperCollins Summer 2020), a book about a mostly forgotten ethical tradition and text that emerged in response to the Black Plague in the late middle ages: Ars Moriendi, “the art of dying.”-1:10 Drew Collins: introduction to the episode. -1:15 Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night by Dylan Thomas; hear it read by the author here. -2:05 Drew's introduction of Dr. Lydia Dugdale. -3:18 Beginning of their conversation. -4:00 Lydia's experience of the current pandemic: "Every face is a new face ... we're starting from scratch with everyone... What's different right now, is that we're managing sick people without the opportunity to get to know them or their families … we are largely monitoring by computer screens, so we're really missing out on the human connection.” -5:35 The impact of the lack of human connection on healthcare providers: the situation is dehumanizing for patients and the doctor-patient relationship.-7:34 The meaning of moral injury and the impact of COVID-19 on doctors and healthcare workers' mental health: comparing military front lines to healthcare front lines. -8:05 Lydia: “But what we've experienced in New York is actually far less than what we anticipated.” -8:32 “When you are working really hard to save people's lives but they aren't really human in the way that we usually think of doctor's relating to patients. And I don't want to suggest that the doctors are dehumanizing the patients but the situation is so dehumanizing.”-9:45 Explication of the term “moral injury”. -13:10 The unsung heroism of essential workers in NYC, already living at the brink of economic peril. -14:20 Lydia describes her own personal fears:-15:05 The non-stop nature of the pandemic impact in NYC. Never-ending ambulance sirens, refrigerated mobile morgues around the city; lack of attention on public school children and the educational impact and the importance of public schools. "We have children who are going hungry because they are dependent on school to eat”; shuttering small businesses, because closing doors for a month is impossible.-17:20 Lydia on the macro-picture of the health-effects of the economic downturn; human flourishing. -18:19 Lydia shares an unpopular, but important view: How the current moment of covid-19 could change the conversation about human finitude, acceptance of our mortality, and the need to prepare for our deaths. -21:25 Ars Moriendi—the art of dying, which has been lost in modern America. -22:26 Lydia explains how her interests in Ars Moriendi were sparked--Lydia's grandfather's brushes with death, her family's frank conversations about the reality of death, and her experiences of other people dying while completing her medical residency. -25:39 “What struck me about the Ars Moriendi (art of dying) is that it was developed in the aftermath of the Bubonic plague outbreak that struck western Europe in the mid-1300s. And was a pastoral response, if you will, to the concerns of the laity--the laypeople--who said ‘look our priests are dying or they're skipping town; there's no one to perform burials or last rites; for all we know, this can be damning to our souls; we need some help preparing for death.'” - 27:30 The Ars Moriendi was given to all of the community, including children. It grew out of the pre-Reformation Catholic Church, but eventually was adopted much more broadly, and ended up not being tied to a particular denomination or religion. -29:11 "In order to die well, you've got to live well.” Understanding our finitude and working out questions of death in a community. -29:27 In her book she makes the case that, of course, the art of dying is broad, but it should include the constant acknowledgement of one's finitude that is carried out in a community that helps the person figure out these questions. -31:09 Fear of death, grief, and tapping into the wisdom on ultimate questions about the art of dying.-31:40 See Christian Wiman, My Bright Abyss-33:00 "There is a way in which the thought of death or threat of death brings into relief that which we most value."-33:31 A view to our death helps us to answer very important questions about human life and flourishing.-34:01 Practical and personal aspects to the reality of sickness and death during a pandemic, and its implications for personal family life.-37:01 “It took at the very beginning [of the pandemic] an acknowledgement of our finitude. We had to be willing to having those tricky conversations with little kids from the beginning."-37:50 The importance of community for dying well; "Right now, dying from covid-19 in the hospital means dying apart from family...the relational piece is really being challenged..." -38:35 Some doctors have to call patients before they come to inform them of the sad reality that if they pass, they would likely be alone. -39:50 Lydia: “Dying alone is not the same as lonely dying.”-41:34 “The challenges of dying well during covid-19 are surmountable if we are "attended to the tasks of preparing to die well over the course of a lifetime."-42:00 Conclusion.

Can we program ourselves to be better people? Phil and Stephen welcome James Hughes to discuss his concept of a Virtues Control Panel: "What I imagine is a virtues control panel with sliders that determine the balance of moral impulses, cognition and behavior in different situations, governed by a morality operating system. When we are working on tasks that require focus and care we would turn up concentration, conscientiousness and prefrontal control. We could also flag specific behaviors, words or even thoughts to be suppressed, and others to be enhanced. When our metabolic monitor indicates we have reached maximum calories for the day or reached peak inebriation, the sub-routines would tell us we can't eat another bite and that we don't want that next drink.

Listen NowOf the two and a half million Americans that die annually, less than half, or 45%, die under hospice care. About one-third of these deaths are cancer related the remainder are moreover from heart and lung disease and dementia. Of the over 5,000 hospice providers nearly two-thirds are for profit. Over 80% of all hospice care is paid for by Medicare. While hospice care is ever-increasingly becoming accepted by the public, the program's benefits are compromised largely due to the fact that over one-third of hospice enrolled decedents were enrolled in the program for too short a period of time, or less than seven days. During this 21 minute podcast, Dr. Doblin discusses why he became a hospice physician, what makes for good hospice care, why the benefit remains under-utilized, what constitutes a "good death," how might hospice and palliative care be improved and how these services might better fit in ever-evolving changes in the health care industry. Dr. Bruce H. Doblin is currently a Physician in the Department of Internal Medicine at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. He also serves as an Instructor of Clinical Medicine-Internal Medicine at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Previously, Dr. Doblin served for over ten years as the Medical Director for Seasons Hospice and Palliative Care in Chicago. Dr. Doblin earned his BA in Economics at Williams College and his MD and Masters in Public Health from Northwestern University. He completed fellowship training at UCLA in health services research and at the University of Chicago in Clinical Medical Ethics. This is a public episode.
