Disciplined, purpose-driven innovation, anchored in governance, data, and the human experience, beats shiny-object hype.In this mega-episode, Lisa Fry, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at SCP Health, discusses “purposeful innovation” that reduces clinician burden and elevates patient experience: ED-volume prediction to align coverage, early pilots of ambient scribing, and patient-preferred models like hospital-at-home. She explains the guardrails, an enterprise architecture review board, commitments to core platforms, and stage-gated pilots with predefined success metrics, to avoid the “tyranny of the urgent” and scale only what works. Nancye Feistritzer, DNP, RN—VP, Center for Care Delivery & Innovation at Emory Healthcare, talks about how bold initiatives, including the Apple hospital work and implementing Epic on Apple devices, succeed only when they explicitly align with an organization's strategy, mission, and values. Nick Yaitsky, Board Member for TAG Digital Health, urges outcome-first AI roadmaps: accept that healthcare data is imperfect, mitigate bias by fine-tuning models to local populations and even individual patients, and build trust in the same way we came to trust GPS, through consistent, measurable results and governance. Olga Ryzhikova, Founding Partner at Kepler Team, tackles adoption by starting integration where clinicians work (SMART on FHIR/SSO), designing modern user experiences, and favoring ambient, low-click workflows so tools remain in use. Ron Strachan, Global Healthcare CIO Advisor, addresses rural access, noting that resilient, low-bandwidth virtual care and platform economies can “meet patients where they are.” His own brain-tumor journey underscores how imaging precision and reliable infrastructure can change outcomes. Finally, Wes Whitaker, AVP of Growth Strategy & Data Analytics, shows population health at scale: unifying EHR, eligibility, claims, and ADT into a modern cloud/Databricks stack, then applying predictive models to anticipate ER visits, target outreach, drive attribution, and prove ROI, while tightening security with role-based access. Together, their message is clear: govern hard, integrate early, pilot fast, measure relentlessly, and scale empathetically.

Send us a textThis Quick Tip breaks down Automation vs. Artificial Intelligence for private practices—what they are, where they overlap, and how to deploy each for maximum ROI. You'll learn how rule-based automation (think: EHR billing runs, appointment confirmations, Calendly/Acuity reminders, Zapier workflows, Keap/Infusionsoft logic trees) eliminates repetitive tasks, while AI (machine learning–driven tools like HIPAA-ready note-takers, smart chatbots, and content generators such as ChatGPT/Jasper/Scribe PT) adapts to data, drafts documentation, analyzes client trends, and improves over time. We cover real clinic use cases—scheduling, reminders, billing, compliance alerts, HR/licensure tracking—and a critical caution on data quality and HIPAA compliance when using AI for clinical or revenue-cycle decisions. Bottom line: Automate the predictable, add AI where nuance and analysis drive outcomes. If you want fewer no-shows, faster documentation, tighter cash flow, and better patient communication, this episode gives you a practical roadmap to implement both—safely, ethically, and profitably.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Kerry Mello-Parker, Director of Rare Diseases and REMS programs at Shields Health Solutions, addresses the complexities and challenges faced by patients with rare diseases including diagnostic delays and limited access to medication. Using an integrated specialty pharmacy model, Shields works with pharmacists to have direct access to the EHR, enabling better patient monitoring, shorter time to initiate medication, tracking outcomes, and providing patients with a direct line of communication to their care team. Pharmacists treating rare diseases are also supported with specialized information on medication administration, side effects and complex billing. Kerry explains, "Shields Health Solutions is a specialty pharmacy accelerator. We partner with over 80 health systems across the United States. We support them in establishing and growing a specialty pharmacy. We help them to access critical medications. Some of them are not available at traditional pharmacies, and we support them in managing clinical quality care programs for their patients." "I'd like to step back a little and talk about what a rare disease is and how we define it. Currently, it is defined as a condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people. However, over 7,000 rare diseases exist. So when we do the math, we come to see that they are not so rare. And some estimates show that up to 10% of the US population may actually have a rare disease. And what I've seen is that there are really three main complexities of treating rare diseases and challenges that patients may face. One of them is that there is a lack of available treatment options when compared with more common diseases. So, for example, only about 10% of rare diseases have an FDA-approved treatment option, but that is changing. We have the Orphan Drug Act, which has actually changed the landscape. It has incentivized and facilitated the development of medications to treat rare diseases." #ShieldsHealthSolutions #IntegratedCareModel #SpecialtyPharmacy #RareDiseases #MedicationAdherence shieldshealthsolutions.com Download the transcript here

Ram Sahasranam, President and Co-Founder of Fold Health, has created a platform that integrates with the EHR to create an AI-driven interface that streamlines workflows, improves communication across the care team, and helps better manage patient care. Traditional EHR systems, while effective for documentation, were not built for proactive care and data sharing. With a focus on the patient and providers, Fold Health is integrating data sources and automating redundant administrative tasks helping to reduce clinician burnout and improve patient communication for scheduling and reminders. Ram explains, "The way to look at it is that empowering providers and patients need to go hand in hand. That is the fundamental reason why we called ourselves Fold Health, which is that healthcare needs to fold around the providers and the team supporting the providers and the patients and the families of the patients who are involved in the care. We have seen healthcare go from $1.6 trillion in spending to $5.3 trillion in spending this year. But in those 15 years, we haven't yet seen it fold around the two most important people, the provider or the patient, in terms of better outcomes or improving the burnout rates that clinicians and their teams face today." "So the fundamental challenge that we noticed was that multiple people were living in different systems and hence different silos from a data standpoint. So the clinician did not know what was happening with their care teams. The patient was living in a different system. If the patient goes to a specialist, the data comes in a compressed format to the physician in an easily digestible manner, which was a challenge. So what Fold does as a result of getting control of all these different nodes is that data can be used to summarize and provide things for the different teams in a quick, easily digestible manner." #Foldhealth #CareCoordination #CareDelivery #ConnectedCare #HealthTech #AI #HealthAI Fold.Health Download the transcript here

OxygenCare is delighted to announce the introduction of the Medanets integrated Point of Care Nursing app to its ever-expanding Digital Healthcare solutions portfolio. The collaboration brings together two companies with a shared vision for improving patient care through innovative digital healthcare solutions. Stephen Nicholson, Digital Health Manager, OxygenCare, explains: "Medanets simplifies nursing routines, supports decision making, complements and integrates with EHR systems, and releases time to care for patients.'The CE and MDR certified app was developed in collaboration with healthcare professionals. "OxygenCare is a multi-award-winning, family-owned business with over 50 years supporting healthcare throughout the island of Ireland. "Their dedicated digital health team and prior experience in delivering complex ICU and anaesthesia systems make them an ideal partner for us," says Medanets CEO Juha-Matti Ranta. "On top of that, their deep market knowledge and the impression made by their team further solidified our confidence in this partnership. It seems we are a natural fit in both values and working style."

For instance, Medanets supports "lightweight IT" approaches such as sending PDFs directly to a document archive - a direct impactful step forward in digital empowerment," Ranta explains. Maurice Moran, Managing Director of OxygenCare, adds: "This Medanets offering complements our portfolio, and we see strong market potential. Together, we are currently conducting exploratory efforts in the market to identify opportunities and tailor our approach to local needs.

Health care data strategist Lee Ann McWhorter discusses her article "Why health care reform must start with ending monopolies." Lee Ann explains how monopolistic control by entities like GPOs, PBMs, EHR vendors, and MMIS platforms drives up costs, suppresses innovation, and undermines patient safety. She highlights how opaque contracts and data silos leave hospitals flying blind, why favoritism often trumps performance, and how COVID-19 revealed the dangers of centralized sourcing models. Lee Ann emphasizes that hospitals have the power to break this cycle by rejecting monopolistic contracts and investing in transparent, independent, and sustainable solutions. Listeners will learn why cost is not the true crisis—control is—and how restoring competition can protect patients and rebuild trust in the system. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Host Dr. Mike Woo-Ming, shares his five-step launch blueprint for building a lean, profitable clinic from scratch. He begins by debunking the myth that doctors need investors, massive loans, or fancy offices to succeed. Instead, he emphasizes focusing on action, simplicity, and profitability from day one. Step one: pick a profitable niche by identifying exactly who you want to serve and the urgent problem you can solve now. Step two: build your Minimal Viable Clinic (MVC) — a streamlined version of your practice that allows you to start seeing patients quickly using low-cost tools like telemedicine, subleasing spaces, and affordable EHR systems. Dr. Woo-Ming explains how to craft an irresistible offer centered around transformation, not just services—helping patients achieve measurable outcomes in 90 days or less. He shares proven marketing insights inspired by Alex Hormozi and offers examples of “unicorn offer statements.” Finally, he details how to attract your first patients, leverage partnerships, and systematize your operations through automation, virtual assistants, and tracking key business metrics. This episode is a must-listen for physicians seeking independence, sustainability, and control over their medical careers—without waiting for permission or capital. Three Actionable Takeaways: Pick a Profitable Niche: Define exactly who you serve, what urgent problem you solve, and ensure you can deliver results profitably. Avoid broad audiences—clarity drives success. Build Your Minimal Viable Clinic (MVC): Start lean using telemedicine, subleased spaces, and low-cost tech tools. Focus on momentum, not perfection—launch now, refine later. Automate and Scale Early: Use systems like EHR automation, virtual assistants, and follow-up sequences to streamline operations. Track metrics weekly to identify growth opportunities.

In this episode, you'll discover why the most powerful tool in your practice isn't your OCT or your EHR—it's your voice. Dr. Steve Vargo shares a personal story of the time he bombed his first big presentation. Months of preparation, flawless slides, and bullet-point perfection… and yet, the audience checked out. That failure became the turning point that taught him one truth every doctor needs to know: information doesn't inspire action—connection does. You'll learn how the same techniques great speakers use on stage—clarity, storytelling, and confidence—can transform the way you communicate in the exam room. Because every patient encounter is a performance, and the way you deliver your message determines whether patients tune out or take action.

In this episode, I map the journey from Founder → Farmer → Tinker → Chief and show you the two keystone skills that unlock growth at each step, plus quick drills you can run this week.Founder: It's you against friction. The superpowers are resilience and work ethic—shipping V1s, selling before perfecting, and turning chaos into cash. I share daily habits that keep you moving when everything feels uphill.Farmer: Consistency beats heroics. Here the wins come from focus and a practice mindset. We install a simple weekly scorecard (traffic → leads → show → close → ARPU → churn), build 10-minute SOPs, and kill “new idea whiplash” with a monthly change window.Tinker: Your machine runs; now you protect attention and capital. The keys are an investor mindset and patience—delegating

In this episode of Tech It To The Limit, hosts Sarah Harper and Elliot Wilson revisit generational myths in digital health and reveal why age isn't the real barrier to adoption. Through their new game, Fact Check Fever, and a deep dive into the Capability-Motivation-Context (CMC) framework, they show how design, usability, and trust matter far more than birth year. From busting stereotypes to exploring how health systems can design with users, not for them, it's a witty, insightful look at the future of inclusive, human-centered innovation.Key TakeawaysGenerational myths don't hold up: Boomers use portals, Gen Z cares about privacy, and every group struggles with clunky design, not just “digital natives.”Design trumps demographics: Adoption isn't about age, it's about usability, accessibility, and human-centered design.Follow the CMC framework: Capability, motivation, and context, not birth year, to predict whether people engage with health tech.Health equity requires intention: Neutral AI does not exist; equity has to be actively built into technology.The biggest unifier isn't age: A diagnosis, condition, or shared health journey brings people together across generations more than labels like Boomer or Gen Z.In this episode:[00:00:13] Welcome & episode introduction[00:00:55] Recap of Mayo Clinic live show[00:02:36] Looking ahead to HLTH: speakers, tracks, and the health tech “fashion week” vibe[00:05:08] Conference tracks & awards00:07:13] Launching Fact Check Fever: busting myths on portals, EHR burnout, Gen Z TikTok habits, and more[00:07:37] Fact Check Fever: generational myths & data[00:19:24] Break for fake sponsor: Patient Portal Plus Plus[00:20:44] Sincere segment: CMC framework for health tech adoption[00:22:24] Deep dive: CMC framework explained[00:31:17] Designing with, not for, users[00:35:31] Break for fake sponsor: Bias Focals[00:37:14] Spicy Nugs: co-host lightning round[00:46:41] Closing thoughts, HLTH call-to-action, and Elliot's health tech haikuResourcesTech It To The Limit PodcastWebsite Apple PodcastSarah HarperLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahbethharperElliott WilsonLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewelliottwilson

Healthcare providers waste $950 billion annually on manual workarounds caused by fragmented EHR systems and integration costs that don't scale. Shadowbox has developed a patented browser technology that functions as an API, enabling instant EHR data access without traditional integration expenses. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Gregory Stein, CEO of Shadowbox, to dissect how the company evolved from serving desperate lab diagnostics customers to building strategic partnerships with established healthcare IT players like HC1 to reach health systems. Topics Discussed: How the 21st Century Cures Act information blocking provisions remain largely unenforced, allowing EHR vendors to maintain data monopolies through integration fees Shadowbox's technical architecture: a white-labeled browser that accesses the document object model and API endpoints to extract HIPAA-compliant data without custom integrations Market entry strategy—targeting financially distressed lab diagnostics providers who couldn't afford traditional integration costs The HC1 partnership model: splitting the market by use case rather than geography, with HL7/API integrations going to HC1 and rapid, low-cost deployments going to Shadowbox Sequential interoperability capabilities that enable multiple vendor touchpoints (prior authorization, eligibility verification, billing) from a single data extraction GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Target customers facing existential financial pressure, not optimal market conditions: Shadowbox entered through lab diagnostics—a commoditized, low-margin segment hemorrhaging money where providers faced $5K-$50K integration costs per connection taking 3-6 months. Greg acknowledged labs are "the redheaded stepchild of healthcare" but their desperation made them willing to pilot unproven technology. The lesson: segments with severe unit economics problems become early adopter pools because status quo costs exceed perceived risk of new vendors. Build a partnerships function before you have market leverage: Shadowbox hired a partnerships-focused employee early to cultivate relationships with RCM vendors and lab information system providers already selling to target customers. Rather than waiting for customer traction to attract partners, they used partnerships to generate initial traction. Greg emphasized healthcare adoption requires credible references—partnerships provide instant credibility entrepreneurs can't buy. Map your ecosystem's existing vendor relationships and pursue co-sell arrangements before achieving meaningful ARR. Use early customer feedback to migrate upmarket, not pivot laterally: Shadowbox started with labs, expanded to imaging centers, but their true ICP emerged as health systems with 500-1,000 community providers on disparate EHRs where traditional integration economics break down. Greg noted: "health systems that have major outreach programs where it doesn't pencil out to have them on their EPIC system." The migration path moved from small, desperate customers toward larger organizations facing the same core problem at scale. Don't mistake initial ICP for ultimate ICP—use early segments as beachheads to validate technology before pursuing customers with better economics. Partner with horizontal competitors when you solve orthogonal use cases: The HC1 deal splits the interoperability market—structured, predictable integrations go to HC1's traditional approach while rapid deployments to fragmented provider networks go to Shadowbox. This isn't channel partnership but market segmentation by use case economics. Greg explained they bring "something complementary to and in some ways competitive" but combined create offerings competitors can't match. Evaluate whether your "competitors" actually serve different jobs-to-be-done within the same category, then structure partnerships around use case delineation rather than territorial splits. Leverage policy expertise as product moat in regulated markets: Greg's Capitol Hill background enabled Shadowbox to support the Coalition for Innovative Lab Testing's successful lawsuit blocking FDA regulation of lab-developed tests—directly protecting their customers' business models. This wasn't marketing but strategic positioning that demonstrates commitment beyond vendor relationships. In heavily regulated industries, founders with policy expertise or advisors who can shape regulatory outcomes create defensibility that pure technology cannot. Consider how industry advocacy amplifies customer loyalty while potentially expanding TAM through favorable regulatory changes. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

La sepsis, una respuesta inflamatoria severa causada por una infección, es una de las principales causas de mortalidad intrahospitalaria en todo el mundo. A pesar de décadas de investigación y avances en protocolos de tratamiento, identificar esta condición rápidamente y actuar de manera efectiva sigue siendo un desafío considerable. La tecnología, especialmente en forma de sistemas electrónicos de salud (EHR), está mostrando ser una herramienta prometedora para cerrar esta brecha crítica en la atención médica. En este artículo, exploraremos el impacto de los sistemas de detección electrónica de sepsis, sus beneficios, limitaciones y cómo pueden transformar el futuro de los cuidados críticos. Además, discutiremos cómo los profesionales de la salud, especialmente los enfermeros en cuidados intensivos, pueden liderar el cambio en la implementación de estas tecnologías. El Contexto de la Sepsis La sepsis es una emergencia médica que ocurre cuando el cuerpo responde de manera descontrolada a una infección, lo que lleva a disfunción orgánica e incluso la muerte si no se trata de manera oportuna. Según datos globales, la sepsis es responsable de millones de muertes cada año y representa una causa importante de hospitalización y readmisión. Los protocolos actuales para el manejo de la sepsis, como el cumplimiento de las guías de "bundles" de tratamiento (por ejemplo, administración temprana de antibióticos, pruebas de lactato y reposición de líquidos), han demostrado mejorar significativamente los resultados en los pacientes. Sin embargo, la adherencia a estas guías sigue siendo inconsistente en muchos entornos hospitalarios debido a factores como el reconocimiento tardío de la condición o la falta de diagnóstico oportuno. La Promesa de la Detección Electrónica Uno de los avances tecnológicos más esperanzadores en la atención médica moderna es el uso de registros electrónicos de salud (EHR) para monitorear continuamente el estado del paciente en tiempo real. La idea es simple: al analizar los datos del paciente de manera continua, estos sistemas pueden alertar automáticamente al equipo médico cuando detectan signos tempranos de deterioro clínico, como ocurre en la sepsis. Resultados Prometedores Un estudio reciente publicado en JAMA (diciembre 2024) evaluó el impacto de un sistema de detección electrónica de sepsis basado en el score qSOFA en cinco hospitales de Arabia Saudita. Este ensayo aleatorizado incluyó a más de 60,000 pacientes y mostró resultados impresionantes: Reducción de la mortalidad a 90 días: Los pacientes monitoreados electrónicamente tuvieron un 15% menos de riesgo de morir en el hospital en comparación con aquellos sin monitoreo (RR ajustado: 0.85). Mejoras en la intervención temprana: La detección electrónica aumentó significativamente la probabilidad de que los pacientes recibieran pruebas clave como lactato sérico y líquidos intravenosos en las primeras 12 horas. Estos hallazgos destacan cómo los sistemas de detección pueden mejorar la respuesta clínica y salvar vidas. Cómo Funcionan las Alertas Electrónicas Los sistemas de detección de sepsis utilizan datos existentes en los registros electrónicos de los pacientes, como: Cambios en los signos vitales (frecuencia cardíaca, presión arterial, temperatura). Pruebas de laboratorio (niveles de lactato, marcadores inflamatorios). Notas clínicas relacionadas con infecciones. Cuando el sistema detecta patrones que cumplen con criterios preestablecidos (como un puntaje alto en el qSOFA), genera una alerta para el equipo médico. Estas alertas se diseñan para ser inmediatas y accionables, ayudando a priorizar la atención en pacientes en riesgo. Beneficios de los Sistemas de Detección Electrónica Identificación Temprana y Precisa: La sepsis es una condición dinámica que puede evolucionar rápidamente. La capacidad de detectar signos tempranos antes de que se presenten complicaciones graves es crucial para mejorar los resultados. Estandarización de la Atención: Las alertas electrónicas aseguran que cada paciente reciba atención basada en las mejores prácticas, independientemente del nivel de experiencia del personal o la carga de trabajo en el momento. Reducción de Errores: Las herramientas electrónicas minimizan los errores humanos asociados con el monitoreo manual y la toma de decisiones en entornos de alta presión. Optimización del Tiempo del Equipo: Al priorizar a los pacientes de mayor riesgo, estas herramientas permiten al personal clínico concentrarse en intervenciones críticas. Desafíos en la Implementación Aunque los sistemas de detección electrónica tienen un potencial significativo, también enfrentan barreras que deben abordarse: Fatiga de Alertas: Un exceso de alertas puede saturar al equipo médico, reduciendo la efectividad de las notificaciones críticas. Precisión y Sesgo: Algunos sistemas han sido criticados por generar falsos positivos o no funcionar bien en poblaciones subrepresentadas. Sobrerreacción y Tratamiento Excesivo: Las alertas pueden llevar a intervenciones innecesarias, como el uso de antibióticos en pacientes que no los necesitan. Adopción Tecnológica: La capacitación y la aceptación por parte del personal son esenciales para el éxito de cualquier sistema nuevo. El Rol de los Profesionales de la Enfermería Los enfermeros en cuidados críticos son esenciales para maximizar el impacto de los sistemas de detección electrónica. Al estar en la primera línea de atención, desempeñan un papel clave en interpretar las alertas y coordinar las respuestas clínicas. Liderazgo en Tecnología Clínica En nuestro curso Critical Care Nursing, enfatizamos cómo los enfermeros pueden liderar la integración de herramientas tecnológicas: Capacitación en el uso de EHR y alertas electrónicas. Monitoreo continuo de pacientes críticos y priorización de intervenciones. Colaboración interdisciplinaria para garantizar respuestas rápidas y precisas. Mirando Hacia el Futuro La detección electrónica de sepsis es un ejemplo claro de cómo la tecnología puede mejorar la calidad y consistencia de la atención médica. Sin embargo, la clave del éxito radica en encontrar un equilibrio entre tecnología y juicio clínico. Para los hospitales y los profesionales de la salud, esto significa: Elegir sistemas diseñados para minimizar la fatiga de alertas. Capacitar al personal para usar estas herramientas de manera efectiva. Incorporar la retroalimentación del equipo clínico para ajustar los sistemas según las necesidades locales. La sepsis sigue siendo un desafío complejo, pero con herramientas innovadoras como la detección electrónica, estamos un paso más cerca de salvar más vidas y optimizar los recursos hospitalarios. Conclusión La detección electrónica de sepsis es más que una herramienta tecnológica; es un catalizador para transformar cómo se brindan los cuidados críticos. Su impacto no solo se mide en tasas de mortalidad reducidas, sino también en la confianza que los equipos médicos pueden depositar en sistemas que complementan su juicio clínico. A medida que avancemos, el papel de los enfermeros en la implementación y uso eficaz de estas herramientas será fundamental para garantizar que cada paciente reciba la atención que necesita. La combinación de tecnología innovadora y atención humana sigue siendo nuestra mejor esperanza para enfrentar los desafíos del futuro en la medicina crítica. "La tecnología salva vidas, pero es el juicio clínico el que las transforma."

Sandra Johnson, Senior VP of client services at CliniComp, discusses the findings from a survey commissioned to explore the support for AI by hospital CIOs. While 80% view AI implementation as a priority, less than half have actually implemented AI tools, which is attributed to privacy concerns and the limitations of legacy systems. There was a strong desire for AI solutions to be embedded within existing systems to avoid the complexity of integrating third-party applications. The goal is to improve data exchange and interoperability to bring the focus back on the patient and improving outcomes. Sandra explains, "The survey painted a really clear picture. Hospital CIOs are not asking if AI should be a part of their strategy, but more about how to implement it. There's a lot of support for AI adoption now, and the use cases that come first and foremost are reducing administrative burden and streamlining workflows. The survey showed that 80% of CIOs are looking to automate administrative tasks as one of their top three priorities." "That really signals a shift towards using technology not just for innovation's sake, but with a focused goal. And that's to free up providers to spend more time with the patients. I think the other thing the survey pointed out is that there's a real desire for AI to be embedded within the EHR. CIOs don't want to have another layer of complexity with third-party bolt-ons. They really want an integrated solution that is reliable, scalable, and sustainable." #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareAI #HealthITAutomation #AmbientAI #ClinicalAutomation #HealthcareLeadership #CIOInsights #HealthSystemStrategy #HospitalInnovation #HealthTechStrategy CliniComp.com Download the transcript here

In this fascinating episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra sits down with Dr Alexander Fanaroff, an interventional cardiologist, clinical trialist, and behavioral economist at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr Fanaroff brings a unique perspective to cardiovascular medicine, combining his expertise in interventional cardiology with cutting-edge insights from behavioral economics to transform how we approach patient care and clinical decision-making. Dr Fanaroff demystifies behavioral economics for the medical community, explaining how this field studies real-world decision-making beyond traditional economic models. He introduces key concepts like status quo bias, prospect theory, and the power of defaults in shaping both physician and patient behaviors. Through compelling examples, including Penn's successful intervention that increased 90-day statin prescriptions from 70% to 90% simply by changing EHR defaults, Dr Fanaroff demonstrates how small design changes can yield significant clinical improvements. Looking beyond individual interventions, Dr Fanaroff discusses how behavioral economics can address healthcare disparities by creating system-wide improvements that lift all patients while specifically targeting underserved communities. He envisions a future where AI identifies at-risk patients from routine imaging, and where interventional cardiologists focus not just on procedural excellence but on ensuring optimal long-term medical management through thoughtfully designed care systems.
