This episode features Dr Madhurangi Perera (Cancer and Palliative Care Outcomes Centre, School of Nursing and  Australia Centre for Healthcare Transformation, Faculty of Health, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, QLD, Australia)   What is already known about the topic? Providing palliative and supportive care in the home setting for people with heart failure is advantageous because care can be provided in accordance with an individual's way of life. Home-based palliative and supportive care for people with heart failure has the potential to improve person and caregiver outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.   What this paper adds? The components of home-based palliative and supportive care are symptom management; expert communication; multidisciplinary team involvement; continuity of care; education; end-of-life discussions; and caregiver support. While initiation of care, the services provided in the home-setting and health care approaches provided differed across the reported studies, in all included studies, nursing staff were strategically placed to provide a wide range of services in the home-setting. Continuous and early liaison between cardiology, palliative care and primary care providers is needed to provide continuous, non-fragmented care.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy The detailed findings of this review which highlight the components of home-based palliative and supportive care can provide guidance to enable health care providers to tailor care for this population. Future research into the perspectives of people with heart failure on each of the identified components and their implementation will assist service providers to gain a better understanding of how to enable home-based palliative and supportive care for persons with heart failure.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163241290350   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

While most assume leaving traditional practice means seeing fewer patients and making less money, Dr. Lenzkes revealed he was able to pay back all his loans in the first year of his new practice model - demonstrating that patient-centered care can be financially viable while improving doctor satisfaction and patient outcomes.EPISODE SUMMARYDr. Brian Lenzkes shares his journey from a traditional insurance-based medical practice to a direct primary care model, highlighting the fundamental problems in today's healthcare system. In his previous practice, he struggled to provide quality care while seeing 20-22 patients daily, dealing with endless paperwork, and fighting insurance companies. The breaking point came when he realized the system rewarded sicker patients rather than preventing illness. Now practicing direct primary care, he sees 6-10 patients daily, spending quality time with each one and focusing on metabolic health and prevention. The transition required courage and initially meant a pay cut, but resulted in better patient care, improved work-life balance, and professional satisfaction. Dr. Lenzkes explains how direct primary care reduces costs for patients while allowing doctors to practice medicine the way they envisioned. The conversation reveals how the traditional medical system contributes to physician burnout and high suicide rates, while alternative models like direct primary care offer hope for both doctors and patients.NOTABLE QUOTE"If someone gets diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the doctor hasn't warned them at least 5 times, the doctor is committing malpractice.

Before we kick in to the show today, I just want to make two points. Here's the first point. Together, we can do it. No one said transforming healthcare and elevating patients over profits would be easy. And it is not. It's really, really hard. I just want to say thanks for all that you have accomplished, Relentless Health Value (RHV) tribe members. These are the things that matter to, really, our entire country, friends, family, patients, members, and in so many ways is really worth it. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Second point I want to make is to thank everybody who has left a tip in our tip jar. Some people have even left recurring donations, which, wow, my faith in humanity is restored when I see my people offering their financial support this way. I feel this way because (a) I don't usually ask for financial support on the pod, even though it's something that is certainly on my mind a lot, and (b) those who offer financial support, at least at this time, don't get anything other than knowing that their help helps this podcast continue, which, again, just warms my heart. The show today is a companion, I'm gonna say, to episode 446, also with Dr. Spencer Dorn. In the first show, we didn't talk about the impact of EHR (electronic health record) systems; and in a similar vein today, we're not gonna talk about the impact of artificial intelligence. I'm phrasing this in this kind of odd way because that earlier conversation with Dr. Dorn was about Kranzberg's First Law of Technology. And this one is, too, where Melvin Kranzberg says, “Don't ascribe any given technology a label of good, bad, or even neutral.” Point being, let's not sit around blaming or crediting a technology for downstream consequences. After all, I mean, if we're thinking about just EHR instances, there's EHR instances where it takes 60 clicks for a doctor to order a patient Tylenol—60 clicks! Then, same EHR system installed in a different hospital? It can take 2 clicks. Those excess 58 clicks aren't because of the technology itself. They're because the technology was configured poorly by humans involved in configuring the technology. And if that technology then results in burnout or moral injury or someone insisting on measuring 58 quality measures in the most labor-intensive way possible, that's a function of how that tool is used or configured, not anything inherent in that technology itself. So, yeah … watch where those fingers are pointing. And all of this is equally relevant to artificial intelligence. As Dr. Dorn says, there's no intrinsic property of the technology—any technology—that determines the outcome. It's how we use it, how we implement it, how we put it into daily practice that really ultimately is the arbiter of what happens and how it impacts lives. I'd also just add even if the tech itself has some glitches or hallucinates, someone decided to use it in the current form it's in. So … yeah. So, the first takeaway from this short show focused on artificial intelligence is gonna be the same, really, as it was in episode 446 about EHRs. Do not ascribe any given technology a label of, as I said, good, bad, or even neutral. That is, as I just said, Kranzberg's First Law of Technology; and it applies here, too. Second major takeaway—and again, this is the same as in that earlier show about EHRs, but today we're talking about AI—if you're thinking about the ultimate impact of the people and the processes that have some technology in their midst (technology, again, such as AI, artificial intelligence), the ultimate impact will not be a black-and-white binary. We talk about some of these nuanced not binaries in the 10 minutes that follow, but for more, I've put some links below for some newsletters et cetera to check out. One last thing before we get into the show today. Speaking of AI, I asked Google about myself; and this is what the Google AI bot replied: “Richter is also co-president of Aventria Health Group, a consultancy, and QC Health, a public benefit corporation.” Okay, so far so good. “She has also been recognized for her work on Relentless Health Value by winning the Edward R. Murrow Award.” Hmmm … Just for the record, I did not win the Edward R. Murrow Award, which is actually a really prestigious broadcast media award. So … yeah. This podcast is, in fact, factually sponsored by Aventria Health Group. And with that, here is my conversation with Dr. Spencer Dorn about, but not about, artificial intelligence. Dr. Spencer Dorn is a practicing gastroenterologist. He also helps lead a large academic practice and works in healthcare IT and clinical informatics.

This encore episode is with Amy Scanlan, MD. It was, in fact, one of our most popular episodes of the past year. It is still just as relevant today in a slightly different way. It's interesting how things which were said maybe a year ago have shades of meaning which become evident as time goes on. So, I liked this show a lot in the second listen with the advantage of time passing. To read the show notes with mentioned links and a transcript, head over to our site. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Complicating fact of current life, it's becoming increasingly obvious that in order to stand up a practice that can take advantage of value-based care payments—payments where primary care docs mainly at this time can get paid more and likely more fairly to care for patients well—you need a lot of infrastructure. You need data, you need tech, you need a team. Translation: You need money, maybe a lot of money, to invest in all of this. These are the external realities that hit anyone trying to do right by patients from every direction. But on the other hand (or maybe different fingers on the same hand), as Dr. Amy Scanlan says in this healthcare podcast, physicians are the backbone of this system. Dr. Scanlan talks in the interview today about the opportunity, and maybe the responsibility, that physicians have here for patients; but also the Eric Reinhart article comes up again about rampant physician moral injury (unpaywalled link with my compliments). Right now might be a great time to read something from Denver Sallee, MD. He wrote to me, and he wrote, “Like many physicians, I did not have much understanding of the business side of medicine, as I mistakenly thought as long as I helped take great care of patients that I was doing my job. More recently, it became apparent to me that by ceding the management of medicine to nonclinical administrators and to companies interested primarily in value extraction for the benefit of shareholders that I needed more education in order to truly help patients.” Today as aforementioned, I'm talking with Amy Scanlan, MD, who is chief medical officer of the clinically integrated network (CIN) that is the joint venture between Intermountain Health and UCHealth in Colorado. We talk about what it's like to be in the kind of messy middle of transformation to integrate care in a clinically integrated network, trying to figure out how to help physician practices and the CIN itself navigate the external environment in a way that empowers different kinds of practices at different points in their transformation journey that empowers physicians to be in charge, and considering clinical and financial outcomes (ie, the business of healthcare). Dr. Scanlan brings up four main factors to consider when plotting strategy from here to there. Listen to the episode or read the show notes to learn about the four factors. 06:35 How is Dr. Scanlan thinking about the transformation process and the shift to value? 09:16 “It is really trying to think about, how do we help practices get there?” 11:48 “The hard part is the in-between spaces.” 13:21 EP407 with Vivek Garg, MD, MBA. 14:12 “Team-based care done badly is really just a series of handoffs.” 15:52 “We have to get to that point where the culture of collaboration is more pervasive.” 19:58 “How do we as healthcare providers step in and solve this problem?” 20:06 Why do providers have a responsibility to step in and try to fix the healthcare system? 20:22 Article (unpaywalled) by Eric Reinhart, MD, PhD. 21:51 Why do physicians need to be accountable for the cost of care as well as outcomes? 23:38 Why does physician burnout give Dr. Scanlan hope? 24:26 What is the solution to changing fee-for-service incentives? 25:43 What are some of the challenges facing changing incentives? 27:16 Why is data so important? 28:54 EP393 with David Muhlestein, PhD, JD. 30:13 “It's important to understand that we are in the middle of this change.” 31:18 Dr. Scanlan's advice for those trying to stand up a CIN.
