Pediatrician and holistic wellness expert Noemi Adame discusses her article, "Having a female doctor is better for your health, but not for hers." She highlights research indicating patients often experience better outcomes—including lower mortality, readmission, and post-surgical complication rates—when treated by female physicians, potentially linked to factors like longer visits and stronger adherence to guidelines. However, Noemi contrasts this with the significant personal toll on female doctors, who face higher burnout rates, a greater burden of uncompensated tasks like EMR messages (receiving 25 percent more requests), and a concerning lack of the longevity advantage seen in the general female population. She critiques the corporate medical system for failing to adequately support or compensate female physicians for the qualitative differences in their care delivery and the associated emotional labor. Noemi strongly advises female colleagues to protect their own well-being by considering alternatives to corporate employment, such as Direct Primary Care (DPC), independent contracting, or building a personal brand, while also acknowledging the unique challenges women face in setting boundaries within these models. Actionable takeaways emphasize the critical need for female physicians to prioritize self-care, implement sustainable practice systems, and advocate for themselves, whether inside or outside traditional employment structures.

Episode DescriptionAudra Moran is the President and CEO of OCRA—Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance—which means she spends her days doing things most of us wouldn't survive five minutes doing: merging nonprofits, leading national patient support programs, funding lifesaving research, surviving pharma grant hell, and trying to reach every woman in America who might be slipping through the cracks. We talk about her time working with the Helen Keller National Center (yes, she knows finger spelling), her accidental journey into cancer nonprofit leadership, the weirdness of dermoid cysts, the ridiculousness of writing grants, and the absolute hellscape of diagnosis delay. Oh, and the fallopian tubes. You'll never look at them the same way again.This episode is funny, raw, deeply personal, and loaded with Gen X movie references and random facts about Paul Rudd, Terminator 2, and flipbook apps at 3am. Audra drops wisdom, humility, and a few hot takes on AI, advocacy, and what it really means to lead when the boulder keeps rolling downhill.RELATED LINKSAudra Moran on LinkedInOvarian Cancer Research Alliance (OCRA)Audra's profile on OCRACURE Today interview: Leading the FightOCRA + AI & Data: Overlooked PodcastFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Christine Verini is a pharmacist by training, a nonprofit CEO by title, and an unapologetic empath by design. She now leads CancerCare, one of the oldest, least-known, and most impactful organizations in the country that actually helps real cancer patients deal with the practical garbage no one likes to talk about—like paying rent, affording a ride to chemo, or feeding their kids.We talk about her career pivot from industry to impact, what it's like trying to scale empathy without losing your soul, and the daily gut-punch of knowing there are millions of people who still have no idea that CancerCare exists. Christine gets real about leadership, advocacy, burnout, and why being “pan-cancer” matters more than ever in a world obsessed with biomarkers, buckets, and branding.She also dishes on what AI gets dead wrong, what patients actually want when they call for help, and why “ghosting” someone with cancer is still a thing. Buckle up. This one's packed with heart, brains, and a little righteous rage.RELATED LINKSCancerCareChristine Verini on LinkedInChristine's CEO Announcement – PR NewswireCancer Health 25: Christine VeriniChristine on HealthyWomenBIO Convention Speaker ProfileFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Across the life sciences, Regulatory Affairs (RA) teams and their colleagues in Quality and Safety are stretched beyond their limits as already impossible demands on their time are compounded by rising health authority expectations. In a new pharmaphorum podcast, web editor Nicole Raleigh speaks with Sonia A. Veluchamy, CEO and co-founder of Celegence, a company dedicated to improving patient outcomes through intelligent regulatory compliance. For both pharma and medical device companies, time and bandwidth are the number one challenge RA professionals face, closely followed by costs and budgetary pressures (the latter being a more pronounced concern for medical device companies). And, as the medical device sector responds to rising demands internationally around device identification, traceability, safety, and surveillance – designed to reinforce product quality and safety – companies have a chance to expedite their preparations, by looking to the adjacent pharma industry for lessons still being learned. Veluchamy dives into the details and explains what all these endeavours ultimately mean for patients.

Helene M. Epstein is not here to make friends with the healthcare system. She's here to dismantle the bullshit, one catastrophic medical error at a time. A marketing agency veteran turned patient safety firebrand, Helene's journey from copywriter to cancer misdiagnosis survivor, to “badass queen of patient safety,” is one hell of a ride.We talk about how her son was misdiagnosed over 15 times (yes, really), why some doctors should come with warning labels, and how American healthcare gaslights patients like it's a competitive sport. She also explains why she's giving away her new book for free, one chapter at a time, and how AI might actually be useful—if it stops hallucinating citations.This is not a light listen.

Sarah Armstrong—forever Sarah Oakden to me, no matter what the legal documents say—isn't just my best friend. She's my first college friend, my musical theater soulmate, and the first person who truly saw me as an artist. She was there when I walked onto Binghamton's campus, and she was there when I walked into cancer hell. And, because we're nothing if not in sync, a few decades later, she got her own cancer badge of honor, and I was right there with her every step of the way.This episode is a love letter to friendship, music, and those moments that change your life forever. We nerd out over Sondheim, Binghamton's infamous "Theater 101 with Dr. Susan Peters." and the weird and wonderful rabbit holes that turn into entire alternate realities across decades of aging gracefully and falling with style.We talk about how cancer is the worst club with the best people and how surviving it together just adds another verse to the song we've been singing for 30 years. It's funny. It's real. It's a master class in love, laughter, and musicals that should have been bigger; with a big tip of the hat to Nancy Ford and Gretchen Cryer for their acclaimed musical "I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking It on the Road"Oh, and RIP to the legendary Denny's on Vestal Parkway.

In this episode of the On Location series recorded for HIMSS 2025 in Las Vegas, hosts Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin sit down with Albe Zakes, Director of Strategic Communications at HIMSS, to discuss the transformative impact of technology on healthcare and the upcoming conference's role in driving innovation. HIMSS, a global society of health and technology professionals, brings together leaders, clinicians, practitioners, and innovators to harness the power of information and technology for improved patient outcomes and expanded access to healthcare.A Focus on Collaboration Over ExpertiseZakes emphasizes a significant shift in how the HIMSS conference operates. While traditional conferences often rely on a top-down approach with speakers sharing insights, HIMSS is increasingly prioritizing collaboration. The 2025 event will feature expanded networking opportunities and dedicated breaks to foster real-time partnerships and relationships that can extend beyond the conference. The approach underscores the organization's belief in the “symbiotic triangle” of people, technology, and process—highlighting that technology alone is not enough without empowering the people who use it.Exploring Key Topics: AI, Cybersecurity, and Health EquityArtificial intelligence (AI) is set to take center stage at HIMSS 2025, reflecting its transition from a speculative technology to a practical tool reshaping healthcare. With dozens of educational sessions dedicated to AI, the conference will explore how clean data and strong governance are critical to unlocking AI's potential in improving healthcare delivery.Cybersecurity is another major focus, with a dedicated Healthcare Cybersecurity Forum and a Cybersecurity Command Center on the exhibit floor. Notably, former U.S. Cyber Command and NSA Director General Paul Nakasone will deliver a keynote on maintaining security in an AI-driven world. The emphasis on cybersecurity aligns with the critical need to protect patient data and maintain trust within the healthcare ecosystem.Zakes also highlights the Health Equity Forum, which aligns with HIMSS's mission to ensure that technology advancements translate into equitable healthcare access. The forum will gather leaders from governments and nonprofits worldwide to discuss strategies to improve health equity globally.Innovation and Emerging TechnologiesThe conference aims to showcase not only established tech giants like Oracle and AWS but also emerging companies and startups. The “First-Time Exhibitors Pavilion” and the “Emerge Innovation Experience” will offer opportunities for attendees to engage with new technologies and ideas. The Emerge Innovation Experience will feature a pitch contest and networking events for entrepreneurs and investors, driving forward-thinking solutions in healthcare technology.The Power of People, Technology, and ProcessThis episode offers a glimpse into the critical themes that will dominate HIMSS 2025, providing valuable insights into how technology, collaboration, and innovation are reshaping healthcare.

Welcome to another episode of Out of Patients, where we get real about the absolute circus that is the American healthcare system. If you've ever been trapped in a medical billing nightmare, gaslit by insurance reps, or just generally felt like healthcare is an elaborate game designed to screw you—this one's for you.Joining me is the indomitable Deb Gordon, a relentless champion for healthcare consumers, co-founder of Umbra Health Advocacy, and co-director of the Alliance of Professional Health Advocates. She literally wrote the book (The Healthcare Consumer's Manifesto) on navigating this broken system—and she's here to help you get unf*cked.We talk about why the healthcare system is a hot mess, how patient advocacy is (unfortunately) a booming business, and why you shouldn't have to fight tooth and nail just to get the care you're entitled to. And yes, there are people you can hire to help you navigate the bureaucratic hellscape of prior authorizations, medical bills, and misdiagnoses. It's an infuriating conversation—but also wildly empowering.If you've ever thought, Where the hell was this when I needed it?—well, now you know.RELATED LINKS

You know how some people enter your life with a knock, a bang, or maybe even a LinkedIn request? Not Rebecca Batterman, returning champion to Out of Patients, making her dramatic second appearance,Back in 2019, she karmically appeared like a plot twist in a film noir—unexpected, inevitable, and full of surprises. An AI strategist, an optimist (yes, those exist), and a young adult cancer survivor, Rebecca is here to school us on everything from the future of AI in healthcare to why nostalgia is a coping mechanism we all need. In this no-BS conversation, we talk about the state of innovation (is it still a buzzword?), the wild advancements in early cancer detection, and whether AI-generated empathy is just another overpromised tech fantasy.We also take a detour into the absurdity of pinkwashed cancer fundraising, the evolution of cancer portrayals in pop culture, and the ultimate question: Can you separate the art from the artist? Come for the cancer survivorship insights, stay for the South Park references and existential musings on whether you'd rather live in the past (with no antibiotics) or the future (with AI clones of yourself).
