Shamp From her career as a college athlete playing in the Final Four to graduating with honors from Harvard Law School, Laura Shamp has always been a fierce competitor and has always played to win. Over the past 20 years, she has handled all types of major litigation and is known as one of the few trial lawyers able to get multi-million dollar verdicts in some of the toughest jurisdictions and has an $11 million dollar jury verdict against Philip Morris to prove it. So, it is not surprising that she is consistently listed as one of Georgia's “Super Lawyers.” Laura's success as a trial lawyer is only matched by her success as an appellate advocate. Her reported cases have helped shaped the law in Georgia regarding medical malpractice and the use of expert witness testimony in professional negligence cases and include: Hankla v. Postell, 293 Ga. 692, Georgia Supreme Court 2013; EHCA Cartersville v. Turner, 280 Ga. 333, Georgia Supreme Court 2006; Lee v. Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, 297 Ga. App. 692, Georgia Court of Appeals (2009); Houston v. Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, 295 Ga. App. 674, Georgia Court of Appeals 2009. Laura also chairs the Georgia Trial Lawyers Amicus Committee, which submits “friend of the court” briefs to the Georgia Supreme Court and Georgia Court of Appeals on issues affecting the civil justice system. Laura graduated in 1988 from Harvard Law School with honors. After graduating, she served as a federal law clerk to United States District Court Judge Robert H. Hall. In 2004, she returned to Harvard to study patient safety and medical errors under Don Berwick and Lucian Leape, leaders in the field of patient safety, and in 2005 obtained a Masters Degree in Public Health from the Harvard School of Public Health. Laura is dedicated to working to try and improve the quality of medical care in Georgia and serves on several committees that review legislation to try and address issues of medical error and patient safety. Before founding Shamp Silk, Laura had a successful solo practice for over 15 years. Before that she was at Doffermyre, Shields, Canfield, Knowles & Devine, where she practiced for four years doing plaintiffs and general civil litigation work. She began her career at Sutherland Asbill & Brennan as a general civil litigator. Laura is admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court and the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, as well as all other trial and appellate courts in the State of Georgia.

Tom Robertson, Executive Director of the Vizient Research Institute is joined by Dr. Russell Howerton, a surgeon and long-time Chief Medical Officer at Wake Forest North Carolina Baptist, now Atrium Wake Forest Baptist Health. Russ and Tom discuss everything from shared experiences with bygone general practitioner physicians to the effects of modern era mergers and acquisitions. Along the way, they tackle issues ranging from the balance between autonomy and systematic reliability to the economics that influence the delivery of care.   Guest speaker: Russell M. Howerton, MD, FACS Senior Physician Executive  Atrium Wake Forest Baptist Health   Moderator: Tom Robertson Executive Director Vizient Research Institute   Show Notes: [00:50] Advice to give a young Russ Howerton [01:40] Father exemplified individual accountability, autonomy model of medicine [02:25] Trained under Lucian Leape, author of “To Err is Human” [06:27] There's variation of service with any sized system, and scaling it up with a merger won't change that [11:15] There's some debate that a highly skilled, low-volume surgeon will be better than a low-skilled, high-volume surgeon, but probably little debate that an institution has systems and processes in place better when doing high volume.    [12:30] The financing and provisions of the infrastructure to deliver health care is complex – it's like a Jenga puzzle to manage it [15:00] Society doesn't want to see market failure in health care where people can't get service when they need it at a micro level [22:00] Thoughts on price parity for patients [22:50] Price parity would free us from “segregating" patients by their payer status [23:54] Payer parity is different than global budgeting. It puts pressure on the current pricing model and wouldn't survive indefinitely in society because many valued services would be hard to support. [26:50] Atrium Wake Forest Baptist wants to be a regional leader in converting to a value-based care model, but still can't keep the lights on without focus on the volume-based model.   Links | Resources: Dr. Russell Howerton's biographical information   Subscribe Today!
