UnitedHealth Group (UHG) stock is plummeting following the abrupt resignation of its CEO Andrew Witty. His sudden departure, coming on Tuesday, May 13, came amid multiple lawsuits and threatened actions by private, state, and federal agencies across the country, and amid massive criticism for the company's tendency to deny beneficiaries coverage for services at elevated rates.Witty's exit from the giant payer – a long-time dominant force related to revenue cycle, provider staffing, utilization, and managed and commercial health insurance plans – seems to have rattled many in America's sprawling health delivery system. So, how could these recent events affect other hospitals and health systems?During the next live edition of the popular Talk Ten Tuesdays, the Internet broadcast produced by ICD10monitor, Dr. Juliet Ugarte Hopkins will share what she thinks of what might lie ahead.

Radiology reports are rich in clinical detail, yet ICD-10 codes often fail to fully capture the complexity and specificity of imaging findings.That is why the producers of Talk Ten Tuesdays and ICD10monitor have invited Laura Manser to explore the most common disconnects between radiology documentation and ICD-10 coding – especially in areas like incidental findings, laterality, and linking imaging results to medical necessity.During the next edition of the weekly broadcast, Manser is also expected to highlight common errors, such as coding suggestive findings as definitive diagnoses, and provide practical guidance on bridging the gap between documentation and compliance.Also part of the live broadcast will be these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.• News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.• MyTalk: Angela Comfort, veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the long-running and popular weekly Internet broadcast.

Professor Jon Jureidini is a child psychiatrist who leads the Critical and Ethical Mental Health research group at Adelaide University in Australia. His forensic deconstruction of industry-sponsored clinical trials has exposed how pharmaceutical companies manipulate data, employ ghostwriters, and cultivate academic figureheads to create an illusion of scientific consensus around their products. Prof. Jureidini has revealed how medications prescribed to our most vulnerable populations—children and adolescents—gained approval based on studies that were fundamentally misrepresented in the scientific literature. In his groundbreaking book, 'The Illusion of Evidence-Based Medicine: Exposing the crisis of credibility in clinical research,' co-authored with Leemon McHenry, he systematically demonstrates how commercial interests have hijacked the evidence base that clinicians rely on, compromising patient care in the process. His work raises profound questions about the integrity of published research and challenges us to reconsider the foundations of modern medicine. Jureidini reveals shocking findings about the landmark 'Treatment of Adolescent Depression Study (TADS) study that's been used to justify prescribing antidepressants to teenagers—despite evidence showing a five-fold increase in suicidal events. With nearly 20% of adolescent girls now taking SSRIs, this conversation exposes the profit-driven deception that puts millions of developing brains at risk while pharmaceutical companies continue to thrive on what Jureidini calls "the illusion of evidence-based medicineChapters00:00 Introduction to the Crisis in Psychiatry02:20 The Illusion of Evidence-Based Medicine04:34 The TADS Study: A Closer Look10:47 Evaluating the TADS Study's Findings14:22 The Ethics of Informed Consent26:28 Risks and Alternatives in Treatment32:59 The Controversy of Antidepressant Prescriptions35:46 Ethical Concerns in Pharmaceutical Practices40:29 The Impact of Clinical Trials on Drug Approval47:08 Challenges in Psychiatric Research and Publication50:29 Restoring Trust in Scientific Integrity58:20 A Shift Towards Social Determinants of Mental Health RADICALLY GENUINE PODCASTDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here—-----------FREE DOWNLOAD!

Payer edits and denials are pervasive in healthcare reimbursement.These problems typically arise from coding inaccuracies, insufficient documentation, or non-compliance with payer-specific guidelines. These challenges can lead to revenue loss, increased administrative burden, and frustration among healthcare providers.A skilled coding staff plays a vital role in mitigating these issues. Proactive identification of potential red flags at the time of coding can decrease the number of edits and denials being returned from the payer.Join our special guest Lorie Mills, director of health information services for Primeau Consulting Group, during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesday, April 29, 10 Eastern for a refreshingly new approach to understanding how and what smart coding can do to avoid these expensive and frustrating issues.Also part of the live broadcast will be these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Director of Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.• The Coding Report: Substituting for Christine Geiger will be Amy Jo Combs, Senior Coding Compliance Consultant for First Class Solutions.

In today's healthcare environment, America's hospitals are experiencing increases in payer denials as a result of incorrect application of drug HCPCS units and a drug HCPCS modifier (JW/JZ).These denials have increased costs for providers, because the existing staff is either being redirected to spend more time on the issue or additional staff are being hired to resolve the drug charge denials.

Steve Heard, Chief Innovation Officer at J2 Interactive, presents a strategy in this interview for dealing with new forms of data known as Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) and how traditional HIEs can evolve to help organizations exploit this data.Heard points out that SDoH has the strongest impacts on people who are poor, isolated, or otherwise marginalized, but that those populations have impacts on the health of everybody else. He therefore urges policy-makers not to "abandon" these people or ignore the needs indicated by the data.Learn more about J2 Interactive: https://www.j2interactive.com/Health IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

Social Determinants of Health, or SDOH, are a buzzword these days—but often little more. We acknowledge their importance, but actual progress on capture (and subsequent patient support) has been slow. To be fair real barriers including technological limitations and limited financial incentives stand in the way. But my current guest understands better than most the major role SDOH play in patient health. He and his organization have developed a digital tool to facilitate capture and improve the lives of patients in their community. They're making a difference. Dr. Pablo Buitron de la Vega is Assistant Professor of Medicine, Medical Director, Preventive Medicine Residency, and Clinician Lead for the THRIVE Social Determinants of Health Program at Boston Medical Center / Boston University School of Medicine. A native of Ecuador, he's made SDOH his mission. On this show we cover: Dr. de la Vega's long journey from Ecuador to U.S. physician, the obstacles he overcame, and how the experience shaped his mission as a provider Defining SDOH and common examples in his line of work as a Boston physician Basics of capture in ICD-10 and what makes SDOH difficult to collect Boston Medical Center's SDOH capture tool, THRIVE: What it does, tangible benefits, and how your organization can get access Low-tech strategies for SDOH capture you can implement today Dr. de la Vega's National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to develop a triage tool to help address patients' unmet social needs
World Health Day, which will be officially observed on Monday, April 7, will mark what organizers claim will be a year-long celebration. Here at ICD10monitor and Talk Ten Tuesdays, we will celebrate a bit early, during the next edition of the Talk Ten Tuesdays live Internet broadcast.Headlining the broadcast will be Lorraine Fernandes, immediate past president and communications chair of the International Health Information Management Association.This year's World Health Day theme focuses on efforts to end preventable maternal and newborn deaths, and “to prioritize women's longer-term health and well-being.”The World Health Organization (WHO) cites published estimates that nearly 300,000 women lose their lives due to pregnancy or childbirth annually. The WHO also states that more than 2 million babies die during their first month of life, and that 2 million more are stillborn.Also part of the live broadcast will be these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, director of clinical documentation integrity (CDI) for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.• News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.• MyTalk: Angela Comfort, a veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the long-running and popular weekly Internet broadcast.

Access to quality healthcare shouldn't depend on your zip code, yet for many underserved communities, barriers remain.In this episode of Straight Out of Health IT, Christopher Kunney interviewed Christopher Cruttenden, CEO of Safety Net Connect (SNC), a company providing digital healthcare tools like eConsult to improve access to specialty care for underserved populations. SNC connects medical, behavioral, and social service providers to enhance equitable healthcare access. Cruttenden highlighted major challenges in providing equitable care, including medical and food deserts, time constraints for working families, and long wait times. He emphasized the burden on patients, especially those with chronic illnesses and other socioeconomic challenges.Regarding technology's role, Cruttenden advocated for collaborative, patient-centered solutions integrated into healthcare workflows. He noted the importance of AI in supporting physicians, particularly through AI-assisted dictation, coding support, and quality assurance to enhance efficiency. By improving access to care, reducing ER visits, and enabling timely interventions through tools like eConsult, the cascading effect leads to better patient outcomes and system-wide savings. Cruttenden also discussed the concept of Return on Value (ROV) over traditional ROI in public health.eConsult operates in regions like LA County, Colorado, and through partnerships with other providers. It facilitates remote consultations, allowing specialists to provide timely input, reducing wait times and preventing unnecessary specialist visits. Cruttenden expressed excitement about expanding the model to address Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) issues, such as smoking cessation and food insecurity. His advice for public health organizations is to embrace technology thoughtfully, focusing on its ability to improve access and patient outcomes rather than just its capabilities.Tune in to explore how innovative digital tools are transforming healthcare access and improving outcomes for those who need it most!

Time is money. And nowhere is that adage more relevant than in today's American hospitals.For example, consider the patient who is medically ready for discharge, but still waiting for a skilled nursing facility (SNF) bed to open up. Or the case in which a patient might medically require a cardiac catheterization before being safely cleared to discharge to home, but there's a delay until the procedure can be performed on Monday.So, when is it okay to delay?Answering that question as well as reporting on the nuances of such delays will be Juliet Ugarte Hopkins, MD, the special guest during the next edition of the long-running and popular Talk Ten Tuesdays broadcast produced by ICD10monitor.Also part of the live broadcast will be these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Director of CDI for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.• News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.• MyTalk: Angela Comfort, veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the long-running and popular weekly Internet broadcast.

Discharge orders have evolved. Today, they indicate the end of hospital billing for an encounter.However, when the discharge order is placed on a day other than the day a patient actually leaves the hospital, it can often lead to under-reporting the patient's length of stay (LOS) and other issues. And when some clinicians are told to place such an order when patients are medically ready to leave – even if there is no safe discharge plan – this forces the team to make the tough decision: to discharge or not to discharge. Thus, potential patient safety issues arise, as Dr. Juliet Ugarte Hopkins will report as the special guest during the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesdays.Also part of the broadcast will be these instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH.• CDI Report: Cheryl Ericson, Director of Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) for the vaunted Brundage Group, will have the latest CDI updates.• The Coding Report: Christine Geiger, Assistant Vice President of Acute and Post-Acute Coding Services for First Class Solutions, will report on the latest coding news.• News Desk: Timothy Powell, ICD10monitor national correspondent and regulatory expert, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.• MyTalk: Angela Comfort, veteran healthcare subject-matter expert, will co-host the long-running and popular weekly Internet broadcast.

Section 1: Introduction (0:00 - 5:30) Dr. Valentin Fuster introduces a special issue on Prevention, covering societal and individual prevention aspects and key cardiovascular risk factors. He highlights issues like medication adherence, obesity, and the need for better education and healthcare systems. Section 2: Prevention in Society (5:30 - 35:30) Adherence to Medications The PURE trial shows low medication adherence (31% at follow-up) across 17 countries, despite technological advancements in diagnostics. Barriers include low health literacy and inadequate healthcare systems. Social Determinants of Health Social deprivation leads to worse cardiovascular outcomes, especially among sexual minorities in the U.S. The editorial calls for more equitable healthcare access and anti-stigma efforts. Environmental Factors: Aircraft Noise Higher aircraft noise exposure is linked to worse heart health, urging noise reduction policies for vulnerable populations. Section 3: Prevention in Individuals (35:30 - 55:30) Sedentary Behavior Even with exercise, high sedentary time (over 10.6 hours a day) increases cardiovascular risk. Reducing sedentary time can significantly lower heart disease risk. Intensive Lifestyle Interventions for Diabetes Weight loss and lifestyle changes improve cardiac biomarkers and reduce cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes patients. Section 4: Risk Factor Impacts (55:30 - 1:10:00) Hyperlipidemia & Obesity Hyperlipidemia and obesity management, including medications like semaglutide, play key roles in preventing cardiovascular disease. The 2024 ESC hypertension guidelines are also crucial in risk reduction.
Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a Neonatal PA? Have you dreamed of working in the NICU but don't know where to start? My guest today is here to answer all those questions and more! Lex Mastro is a Neonatal PA and currently the Division of Newborn Medicine Advanced Practice Provider Supervisor and Associate Director of the Advanced Practice Provider Neonatology Fellowship Program. After graduating PA school, Lex initially worked in a surgical subspeciality but then found a passion for neonatology. She completed a postgraduate neonatology fellowship program and has since worked in a variety of NICU settings. In today's episode, Lex discusses the value of postgraduate fellowship programs and how to decide if one is right for you. We also discuss how to become comfortable as a provider in complex, high risk situations as well as the importance of emotional intelligence. Lex and I also talk about how providers can improve healthcare access and address healthcare disparities so that we can provide better care to our patients. I'm excited to share this episode so you can learn not only what it's like to be a NICU PA, but also how to improve your own practice, whatever specialty that may be.
