What if the fastest way to grow your healthcare organization is to slow down? In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Scott Middleton returns from Scotland straight into the thick of a merger — and what he's learning is reshaping how he thinks about change itself. Scott takes us inside the integration of TCPA and Providence Care into Your Health, where two very different models are colliding. One organization built 640 billing codes last year; the other built 40. One puts a single nurse practitioner in a building with no support; the other surrounds providers with nurses and community health workers. The opportunity is enormous — but so is the risk of moving too fast and scaring everyone away. What if the fastest way to grow your healthcare organization is to slow down?

The opportunity is enormous — but so is the risk of moving too fast and scaring everyone away. In this conversation, Jamie and Scott explore: Why a nurse practitioner alone is a "single source of failure" — and how staffing changes everything How to enter a building without threatening the provider they already love Why billing isn't bureaucracy — it's how Medicare knows you made a difference The art of giving people what they think they need now, and the rest over time Advanced care planning, DNRs, and why the right message sometimes needs a different voice This is a masterclass in change management disguised as a healthcare conversation. Listen now — and rethink what "disruption" really requires.

What if the most important care in the entire healthcare system is also the most underfunded? While hospitals and inpatient reimbursements rise with inflation, the physician fee schedule has quietly declined roughly 33% in real terms over 25 years — and this year it's facing another cut. In this episode, Jamie Preston sits down with Your Health CEO Matt Staub, just back from Capitol Hill, where he spent a record-setting 95-degree day meeting with seven legislative offices to advocate for physicians, providers, and the patients they serve across rural South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. What follows is part field report, part reflection on why preventive primary care saves money and lives — and why we plan meticulously for weddings, retirement, and vacations, but treat our own health with a "call us if something happens" approach. In this conversation: Why a 2.5–5% physician fee cut hits frontline rural practices hardest The bipartisan doctors' caucus and the real appetite for reform Why winning can come from a loss — the Kobe Bryant mindset on process over outcome How a Disney ride (Spaceship Earth) reframes humanity's whole story around communication The case for proactive, team-based primary care over reactive sick visits Press play for a conversation about advocacy, communication, and a simple, powerful idea: the change you need to make starts with you.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Dr. Grace Firestone, a family medicine physician, athlete, and cardiac arrest survivor. Dr. Firestone shares the story of collapsing at 18 years old, spending 10 days in the ICU, and waking up with documented brain injury and compromised heart function. Rather than accepting the limitations placed on her, she pushed forward into college, medical school, and competitive bodybuilding. This conversation covers her early drive rooted in gratitude, the mindset she developed through adversity, her philosophy of practicing what she preaches as a physician, and her work with legendary trainer Charles Glass. Episode Highlights: 0:05 – Dr. Firestone explains why switching to 6:00 AM training at Gold's Gym transformed her efficiency as both an athlete and a physician. 4:22 – She shares the origin of her drive, tracing it back to gratitude, financial aid, and a high school nonprofit she founded called Let the Kids Play. 6:14 – Dr. Firestone recounts the night she suffered sudden cardiac arrest at 18, the CPR her brother performed, the AED shocks, the medically induced coma, and waking up uncertain of her cognitive future. 27:58 – She describes her decision to climb Mount Kilimanjaro despite her defibrillator and medical uncertainty, writing in her journal that she might die on the mountain, and what reaching Uhuru Peak meant for her identity going forward. Dr. Grace Firestone is a board-eligible family medicine physician practicing at UCLA Santa Monica. A cardiac arrest survivor at 18, she rebuilt her life through cognitive therapy, collegiate athletics, and medical training. She specializes in nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle medicine, and trains under world-renowned bodybuilding coach Charles Glass in competitive bodybuilding. Her work as a doctor is grounded in a personal commitment to modeling the habits she prescribes to her patients. She can be found on Instagram at @Dr.Grace_Firestone.

It was 3 o'clock in the morning when Scott Middleton finally signed the papers. The merger was official. And within days, he was already on the road — visiting facilities, riding along with providers, and spotting the same gap everywhere he went: brilliant clinicians doing real work that was completely invisible to the system. In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Jamie sits down with Scott Middleton, calling in from Boston, to unpack what he's discovering on the ground in the newly merged Your Health organization — and why tracking your time isn't about paperwork. It's about protection, proof, and getting paid for every minute of care you're already delivering. What you'll hear in this episode: The Dr. Jeeve story: a high-producing doc who managed a nursing home crisis by phone, saved a patient from an unnecessary ER visit — and never billed for it, leaving Medicare with no record of his intervention Why not documenting a visit before a hospitalization doesn't just cost you revenue — it makes you look like a bad provider, even when you did everything right How insurance companies like United Healthcare boldly take 15% off the top of every healthcare dollar — and why that math means providers can't afford to give their time away for free The TCPA pattern Scott keeps seeing: 15,000–18,000 visits a month, almost entirely in nursing homes, with zero follow-up once patients go home The new post-discharge standard: every patient leaving a nursing home gets a telehealth visit within 48 hours, then weekly follow-up for four weeks — no one gets left in the gap This episode is a masterclass in understanding that documentation isn't bureaucracy — it's how you tell your story, protect your reputation, and keep the care you've already given from disappearing. www.YourHealth.Org

This month on the My DPC Story podcast we are talking about the tools that serve us, and Dr. Michael Hobbs is a voice you do not want to miss.Dr. Hobbs is a pediatrician and founder of Lakes Pediatrics, the first pediatric Direct Primary Care practice in the Minneapolis area, serving families across Edina, Wayzata, and the western suburbs. He brings over twenty years in Twin Cities pediatrics, more than a decade as an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School, Top Doctor recognition from Mpls.St.Paul Magazine and Minnesota Monthly, subspecialty training in infectious diseases and Group A Strep, and a Reach Institute mini-fellowship in pediatric mental health care.What makes this episode essential listening is Dr. Hobbs himself. A self-described knowledgeable hacker who grew up alongside the technology, from a Commodore 64 to writing early web pages, he has watched the entire arc of medical documentation: index cards, paper charts, dictation, the EHR, templates, and now AI scribes. He knows what gets better and what gets worse when tech enters the exam room.In this conversation, Dr. Hobbs covers:The one question to ask before adopting any tool, EHR, phone system, or AIWhy building your own tools is more doable than you thinkWhy now is not the time to lock into a long term software contractThe difference between AI that serves you and AI that turns you into a liability machinePatient transparency, shadow AI, BAAs, and using tools safelyWhy LLMs are terrible at math, learned the hard wayThe best first AI investment for a new DPC doctor on a small budgetAI as a clinical decision support thought partner, not a guideline machineAnd because both Dr. Concepcion and Dr. Hobbs are recovering anthropology buffs, they keep returning to the truth underneath the technology: people like people. The tools only matter if they give us more room to be human with the families we serve.Whether you are deep into building AI workflows or you hear the word AI and want to run, this episode meets you where you are.New to DPC or ready to go deeper?

In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Jamie and Scott have a  raw, specific, and deeply personal conversation about Care Managers: who they are, what they're actually supposed to do, and why getting this role wrong is costing patients their health and organizations millions of dollars. Scott opens with a story that hits hard: his 91-year-old father's recent hospitalization, the mistakes that nearly happened, and what it cost him — financially and emotionally — to navigate a system that wasn't built for the patient. What you'll hear in this episode: Why care managers are controllers, not schedulers — and what happens when organizations get that wrong The medication reconciliation crisis: how discharge errors are sending patients straight back to the ER How Your Health's new geographic mapping tool is transforming how care teams schedule 30 days of visits in advance The shared bonus model designed to stop care team members from fighting over visits — and start winning together What care managers should never be doing — and the analytical skill set that separates great ones from average ones If you're building care teams, leading a healthcare organization, or just trying to keep a loved one safe in a broken system, this episode will change how you think about the people standing between your patients and the hospital. www.YourHealth.Org

Those injection-free sublingual GLP-1 drops for individualized microdosing—do they actually work? Options for treating stubborn neuropathy; Her new doctor said, “Vitamins are hogwash”—so she fired him; There is hope for tinnitus—via diet and lifestyle; I'm taking German classes, and a new study suggests it'll help me ward off cognitive decline. 

This is the story of how I knew I needed to start an anti-anxiety and anti-depressant medication. I was recently diagnosed with ADHD, Anxiety and Depression. I also had to switch Primary Care Physicians because my old PCP was not listening to me and seemed very resistant to prescribing any medication for mental health.  Greif, postpartum and the chaos of raising two toddlers sent me spiraling with both anxiety and depression. I got to a point where managing my mental health felt like a full time job, I did not have the time or the energy to manage my depression. My anxiety was making my ADHD worse, I couldn't get anything done and I knew in my gut that it was time to talk with my doctor about getting on something for my depression. I was breastfeeding at the time, and I had read that anti-anxiety medication can help with the symptoms of ADHD. I also knew that often-times one medication can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. After talking with my doctor, she recommended Zoloft or Sertraline. I had very few side effects, and after about a week or 10 days, I noticed a difference. After two or three weeks I felt like my old self again. I was laughing and could enjoy my children and my life as it was, instead of drowning everything in toxic positivity and hoping for the best.     Topics Covered: Why I wanted to switch primary care physicians How grief and postpartum contributed to my mental health How I knew I needed an Anti-Depressant Medication How I knew I needed an Anti-Anxiety Medication How to talk with your doctor about mental health How I got diagnosed with ADHD, Anxiety and Depression   Thanks for listening!

Dr. Centor discusses concerns about proposals that nurse practitioners and physician assistants are interchangeable with primary care physicians with Dr. Christin Giordano McAuliffe.

There's a primary care shortage and it's only expected to worsen in coming years. Some experts have proposed using non-physician practitioners as a substitute to fill the gap. And though it may sound promising, our expert explains why this will only worsen physician burnout, patient health outcomes, and medical debt.

The typical patient/doctor experience is changing as younger generations demand holistic, convenient, and personalized care. To address these expectations, a new medical model is sweeping the nation that includes ample appointment availability, lengthier patient/physician visits, and enhanced continuity of care. In many ways, this model of care is a return to the days of personalized medicine rather than typical medical management as we know it today.Dr. Nicole Dorotik joins us today to acquaint us with the concept of direct primary care. This medical model provides care to all ages, independent of insurance carriers, Medicare, and Medicaid. Direct primary care is a patient-centered model prioritizing personalized care, accessibility, and affordability.

This week on the Codcast, John McDonough of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Paul Hattis of the Lown Institute talk to Michael Barnett, who is both a primary care physician at Brigham and Women's Hospital and a professor of health policy at the T.H. Chan School, about the ongoing effort to unionize PCPs across the Mass General Brigham system.

“Primary care physicians are your first line of defense against cancer,” said Matthew Farrell, M.D., an Ohio State Wexner Medical Center primary care physician and a clinical associate professor of family and community medicine. Prevention, screenings and early detection are crucial and begins with a patient's family history with cancer and other medical issues. “We are thorough and ask about their first-degree relatives, their parents, siblings and children, and their secondary relatives, such as grandparents and aunts and uncles,” Farrell said. “If I see a pattern, a certain number of relatives with the same cancer, especially at an early age, there could be a genetic factor.” A patient with an inherited genetic mutation will then be screened at an earlier age and more often. Dr. Farrell also talked about the importance of children receiving the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine that prevents certain types of cancer. He examines patients to detect skin cancer and melanoma in the early stages. “Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer and it's personal for me; my mother was diagnosed with melanoma three times … and she's doing fine.” Breast cancer and prostate cancer are two of the most common forms of cancer. Dr. Farrell discussed when women should begin getting yearly mammograms, and why and when men should begin to undergo regular Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) tests. Men and women without a family history of colorectal cancer should get their first colonoscopy at 45. “My brother-in-law was 52 when he had his first colonoscopy,” Dr. Farrell said. “They found a large tumor in his colon; it was removed, and he's been cancer free for 20 years now.” Lung cancer screenings are relatively new and recommended for long-time smokers. They are vital because “if you wait until there are symptoms it's very hard to treat and cure,” Dr. Farrell said, adding “I'm fortunate to be part of the Ohio State system and the James where we have experts and specialists for every type of cancer and medical issue my patients have.”

Anytime I have the opportunity to learn from a biological dentist, I'm all in. But couple that base of knowledge with someone that has also been biohacking (and utilizing red light therapy) longer than I've been alive? Now we've got ourself a compelling conversation! Enter Dr. Gene Sambataro, whom has seemingly always been way ahead of the curve, as it relates to both the world of dentistry and biohacking. He was questioning and excluding mercury fillings from his practice decades before his contemporaries and was biohacking far before it was a term. What is he doing today that is ahead of its time?In our conversation today, Dr. Sambataro details his path from centralized dentistry en route to the holistic counterpart and why the choice was so apparent to him in a time where is wasn't to virtually any of his contemporaries. As you can imagine, since he was biohacking decades before everyone else, he has accrued many hacks for health that are now also implemented into his biological dentist practice. Along with his professional practice, Dr. Sam is also opening a new wellness center that is focused on performance and longevity. He shares the fun tools and modalities that will be offered at the center.From Dr. Sam's bio on his dental practice website: "There are many physicians that report nearly 80% of all illnesses are related to infections, toxicities, and imbalances in the mouth. I choose to focus on biological dentistry because I believe we are at the beginning of a fundamental shift in the practice of dentistry. A transformation that will shift the focus of dental practices away from the emergency treatment of symptoms towards compassionate, comprehensive and preventative biological care that truly embraces the philosophy of Hippocrates: 'First do no harm.' In this type of health-oriented dental practice, Dentists will become patients Primary Care Physicians." If you found the information in today's episode with Dr. Sambataro particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.
