Few people are better at demystifying the byzantine complexities of the American healthcare system than the former CEO of Kaiser Permanente, Robert Pearl, MD. So what does Pearl make of Trump's nomination of RFK Jr for Secretary of Health and Human Services? Is this a thinly veiled excuse to go to war with the current American healthcare system? Or does RFK Jr really have the acuity to responsibly reform a system in desperate need of reinvention?For 18 years, ROBERT PEARL, MD served as CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (Kaiser Permanente).

Special Guest: Dr. Robert Pearl – Physician, Clinical Professor of plastic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine, Faculty member of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, Former CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (Kaiser Permanente), and Author Points covered · Not all AI is the same. Generative AI will save hundreds of thousands of lives and reduce medical costs. · The combination of a dedicated clinician, empowered patient and GenAI will be incredibly more powerful than any of the three alone. · Chronic disease is overwhelming the American healthcare system leading to stagnant life-expectancy, higher costs and the epidemic of burnout. · Success will require that we shift payment in healthcare from "pay-for-volume" (FFS) to "pay-for value) (capitation). Doing so will require skilled clinician leadership and a different doctor-patient relationship. Biography Dr. Robert Pearl was the CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (Kaiser Permanente) from 1999-2017. In this role he led 12,000 physicians, 42,000 staff and was responsible for the nationally recognized medical care of over 5 million Kaiser Permanente members on the west and east coasts. His newest book, “ChatGPT, MD: How AI-Empowered Patients & Doctors Can Take Back Control of American Medicine” debuted as #1 on Amazon's “New Best Seller” list. All profits from the book go to Doctors Without Borders. He is also the author of “Mistreated: Why We think We're Getting Good Healthcare—And Why We're Usually Wrong,” a Washington Post bestseller and “Uncaring: How the Culture of Medicine Kills Doctors and Patients,” published May 2021.

On this week's episode of THE FINANCIAL COMMUTE, host Chris Galeski invites Wealth Advisor Beau Wirick to discuss the potential dangers of following generic financial advice on the Internet.Here are some key takeaways from their conversation:- Beau stresses that financial advice online cannot be personalized the way a financial advisor can tailor their guidance to your individual situation and needs. - Many social media wealth “gurus” make content about financial decisions that can significantly impact one's life, like social security, real estate investing, and health savings accounts. Influencers or gurus may simplify complex topics or even exploit emotions linked to these decisions, which may lead to misunderstanding and misinformation. Chris and Beau dive into their opinions on these individual topics.- Chris and Beau also critique the concept of infinite banking and indexed universal life insurance as being oversold on social media, explaining it's usually more about wealth protection than creation; IUL policies can also be costly and complex with high fees and long-term commitment requirements.- It is critical to sift through financial advice thoughtfully before making rash decisions solely based on Internet content that is not personalized to you and may be overpromising.Disclosure: Information presented herein is for discussion and illustrative purposes only.

There are few people more adept at navigating America's labyrinthine medical system than Robert Pearl. Yale medical degree, Stanford University professor, best-selling author, former CEO of the Californian insurance network Kaiser Permanente, Pearl has explored this byzantine confusion of private enterprise monopoly and government supported bureaucracy from almost every angle. And now Dr Pearl has a way of curing its profound dysfunctionality and shoving the archaic system into the 21st century. As Robbie argues in his new book, ChatGPT, MD (which he claims he “co-authored” with ChatGPT), Robbie is unfashionably bullish about AI's potential to improve both our health and our working lives.

One of the questions I often get asked is this (actually, it's more of a comment usually than a question): Someone says, “Seems like this whole transformative primary care thing is pretty much just, let's go back to the old country doctor. Let's just have a single doctor out there taking care of patients like a Norman Rockwell painting.” To which I reply (and I'm channeling many experts, including my guest Robert Pearl, MD, when I do), “Yeah … except no.” In the golden olden days of the “ye olde country doctor,” there was a lot of art in medicine and a lot less science. If someone got cancer or even heart disease, what was required, fairly exclusively, was comfort and compassion. Now, first and foremost so there's no confusion, am I dismissing the importance of bedside manner and of providing comfort and compassion? Hell no. Would rather have that any day of the week than deal with a “drive-by PCP” or “drive-by specialist” with the throughput of a freeway who has no idea what I may befall the second I step out of his or her exam room. But in the olden days, medicine was fundamentally art with a lot less science … because there wasn't much science. For the most part, we didn't have data. Or MRIs. This was before the whole pharma industry for the most part. We had weird heroin-infused tinctures, but we didn't have oncology meds or biomarkers or even statins for Pete's sake. Consider all the new diabetes meds and biologics and artificial joints and sub-subspecialists who have, through data and advanced analytics by looking at patients across the country, proven out some best practices that might be fairly unintuitive—or disproven some conventional wisdom. It's a different and much more complicated world today, and what's required now is a healthy appreciation for not only the art of medicine but also the science. And science inherently means that, yeah, there are standards of care to be adhered to. That's what science means. There are rules and better ways to do things as proven by looking at the data and not relying primarily on personal recollections of what may or may not have worked in the past. Listen to the shows with Bob Matthews (EP315) or Alex Akers (EP154) for more on this topic, but this all leads me to the interview with Dr. Robert Pearl in this healthcare podcast where we get into some concepts that he covers in his new book, Uncaring. In this episode, we're talking about some how-tos for being a leader of doctors, going about that against the backdrop of this evolving art and science of medicine dynamic, and the impact of this evolving art and science dynamic on physician culture and self-esteem. Because (spoiler alert) if a doc is following evidence-based guidelines, not relying solely on their own personal experience, does that make said doc feel like they are being devalued and that they are but a cog in the wheel and practicing so-called “cookie cutter” medicine? So many nuances, so little time. But, yeah, there's a lot going on which, at its core, is this tension that can play out in some big bad ways. I asked Dr Pearl for some advice for today's healthcare leaders, and he did not disappoint. He suggested using a model that he calls the A to G model, and, in short, you've got to have: A: an aspirational vision B: behaviors C: context D: data E: engagement (throughout the organization and also with the patient) F: faculty G: governance You'll have to listen to the episode for the why and how of each of these. My guest today, as aforementioned, is Dr. Robert Pearl. I am sure that most of our Relentless Tribe who are listening to the show today already know Dr. Pearl, but in short, he was the CEO of Kaiser Permanente for 18 years. Now he hosts a podcast called Fixing Healthcare. He teaches at the Stanford Graduate School of Medicine and Business. He writes articles for Forbes and elsewhere. He's also an author. He wrote a great book called Mistreated, and now there's a new one called Uncaring. I would recommend both. Also mentioned in this episode is Zeev Neuwirth, MD.

Sean Illing talks with former Google data scientist Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, author of Don't Trust Your Gut. Seth argues that the way we make decisions is wrong, outdated, and based on methods or conventional wisdom that lead us astray from getting what we want. Sean and Seth discuss the idea of using data in place of our own intuition and reason to help us through things like online dating, picking a place to live, and being a better parent. Plus, how can we trust "experience sampling" studies that rely on self-reporting, when — after all — everybody lies?

Julie reviews a letter sent by the Louisiana governor who explains his position on a legislative matter. She points out the "feeling" value system that predominates in the letter and the style of the humanitarian-based, political left. We discuss how the four cognitive styles are needed to address any problem and point out why decisions are usually wrong-- because they over-emphasize one out of the four cognitive frames. All four are needed for balanced decisions. audio edited by: http://JayPrescott.com

This week's episode is the second part of our conversation with Dr. Robert Pearl. In his book, Uncaring: How the Culture of Medicine Kills Doctors & Patients, Dr. Pearl asserts that doctors are taught how to cure people, but they don't always know how to care for them. There are many contributing factors, ranging from how doctors are trained, to increasing workloads and lack of resources, a widening disconnect between patients' and doctors' values and expectations, and increased risk and death due to the pandemic, all of which are intertwined with systemic and cultural issues. These are people who, with the highest ideals of caring for people, have entered a system rife with misaligned incentives that undermine and contradict their own hopes and expectations, and a culture that shapes them into being unable to care in the way they originally intended. The book examines the elements of physician culture that need to be corrected, the ones that should be preserved, and how to accomplish both. Dr. Robert Pearl is the former CEO of The Permanente Medical Group (1999-2017), the nation's largest medical group, and former president of The Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group (2009-2017). In these roles, he led 10,000 physicians, 38,000 staff, and was responsible for the nationally recognized medical care of 5 million Kaiser Permanente members on the west and east coasts. He is the author of Washington Post bestseller “Mistreated: Why We think We're Getting Good Healthcare—And Why We're Usually Wrong,” and “Uncaring: How the Culture of Medicine Kills Doctors & Patients” which is scheduled to be published in spring 2021 (all proceeds from the book go to Doctors Without Borders). Dr. Pearl also hosts the popular podcasts Fixing Healthcare and Coronavirus: The Truth.

Keller, CFP, has been in the insurance and financial services industry since 1990. Unlike medicine, which has a standardized path that physicians must take to gain the education, training and experience requirements necessary to obtain board certification, the insurance and financial services industry does not. Working with an agent that is familiar with the underwriting of both disability and life insurance policies for physicians can all but guarantee a smooth underwriting process in which the desired outcome is likely. While he might not be a doctor’s first phone call regarding their insurance needs, he is often their last.

How good of a dish are you going to get when you use bad ingredients? Are you going to blame the recipe? Some people would, and by doing so, they would keep baking bad cooks and blaming the recipe for it. Algorithms work the same. You give AI bad data, you get bad results.The metaphor works well until you realize that, when you end up with a lousy meal, you can throw it in the trash and order from a restaurant and get a new meal. But when the algorithm is fed bad data, and that is supposed to save peoples' lives—you got the picture, right?So we need good data, good algorithms, and good technology; but that is not enough. Despite what many people like to think, there are no magic tech pills—humans envision, create, and use technology, and we need the right culture to obtains the right results. Our technology is only as good as we are, and culture drives everything we do as humans. If you feed machine learning with bias, you get an even more significant bias. If you inject bias into the medical culture, you kill people: both patients AND doctors.The American healthcare system should be the best in the world, but today it is not; doctors are burning out and making mistakes. Technology is not accepted and utilized as it should be. Racism shouldn't be part of the healthcare system, but it is.Does it suck? Yes.Is there hope? Absolutely.Can technology help? You bet. How? Have a listen.About The BookDoctors Are Taught How To Cure People. But They Don't Always Know How To Care For Them.Hardly anyone is happy with American healthcare these days. Patients are getting sicker and going bankrupt from medical bills. Doctors are burning out and making dangerous mistakes. Both parties blame our nation's outdated and dysfunctional healthcare system. But that's only part of the problem.In this important and timely book, Dr. Robert Pearl shines a light on the unseen and often toxic culture of medicine. Today's physicians have a surprising disdain for technology, an unhealthy obsession with status, and an increasingly complicated relationship with their patients. All of this can be traced back to their earliest experiences in medical school, where doctors inherit a set of norms, beliefs, and expectations that shape almost every decision they make, with profound consequences for the rest of us.Uncaring draws an original and revealing portrait of what it's actually like to be a doctor.

"We can’t un-bungle our nation’s COVID-19 response. Political leaders acted too slowly; health agencies committed unforced errors with testing kits and, amid the confusion, an information fog settled over the land. Americans remain afraid, perplexed, and chronically misinformed (despite wall-to-wall coronavirus coverage across the leading cable news programs and print publications). To counter the uncertainty, any plan to get us out of the coronavirus crisis must first acknowledge and broadly communicate three immutable, scientific facts." Robert Pearl is a plastic surgeon and author of Mistreated: Why We Think We’re Getting Good Health Care–And Why We’re Usually Wrong. He can be reached on Twitter @RobertPearlMD.

In this podcast originally published early last year, Alex Akers and I had a chance to speak with Dr. Robert Pearl about his book Mistreated: Why We Think We’re Getting Good Health Care—And Why We’re Usually Wrong. Besides being an author, Dr. Pearl is former CEO of the Permanente Medical Group; he’s a frequent keynote speaker; and he is also the host of a podcast called Fixing Healthcare. Here’s what Dr. Pearl said at the recent HLTH conference in Vegas, and I’m editorializing a little bit here. Dr. Pearl said day after day, patients and their families experience the unnecessary frustrations and heartaches that are so rife in American health care. Mistreatment is certainly a continuum, but in all of its manifestations, it’s pretty much nothing less than rampant. I mean, how else do Americans manage to pay more than twice as much per patient for a health system that ranks 37th in the world? There are definitely bright spots, and there are definitely great men and women working within health care. So, I do not—and I’m certain Dr. Pearl does not—mean to be all doom and gloom. But we’ve got some realities to deal with here. There’s a simple answer to the question, “What happens if we fail to change?” Disruption will happen. While the pace of health care disruption in many sectors hasn’t exactly set world speed records, it’s inevitable. And, according to Dr. Pearl, status quo health care providers will lament their decision not to have embraced change sooner. To wrap our heads around this, Dr. Pearl suggests that there are four must-haves, four pillars to get the American health care industry back on track. Spoiler alert: Those four pillars are (1) integration, (2) pay-for-value, (3) modernize our approach to technology, and (4) clinician- and physician-led organizations.

When we want to start something new we often find reasons why we can’t. We say to ourselves oh yeah I’d start that project, but I don’t have the right equipment, or I’d start working out, but I don’t like the gym I belong to, or I’d start writing more, but I have to take a class first, or I’d start a podcast but I don’t have the microphone or recording equipment yet. The reality is that we can start at any time. We can find parts of the project we can work on now. We can pull up at home workout videos on YouTube, and we can look up writing tutorials on YouTube or online, we can record a podcast on our phone and use a free platform to upload it. We often make up stories as to why we can’t start something when, in reality, we can start anytime. And the crazy thing is that is the most important part because once that’s going, you’ll pick up momentum on whatever it is you started. A video that stuck with me was put out by Casey Neistat titled Casey Neistat's Guide to Filmmaking The number one thing he says is gear doesn’t matter. He goes onto defend this by showing the camera and a piece of the content he made for his HBO show, which was made with an old cannon camera that didn’t even have high def, and some of his most popular videos ever was shot with something very similar, where he says someone can purchase on Amazon for under $100. He proves it by showing the actual footage and camera used. He says if the gear were that important, then whoever spends the most would always win, then he goes onto show examples of movies with 150 million dollar budgets that were terrible and bombed. They had the best equipment money can buy. He then gives an example of a movie made on a budget on a few hundred bucks and edited with iMovie (which is free software) that won awards at multiple film festivals with standing ovations and was one of the most celebrated documentaries of the year. He goes into more detail about the cost and diminishing return on camera equipment, which would be great for the filmmakers, but I thought it was a great lesson for other things too. Feel free to check out the video on YouTube, of course - Casey Neistats guide to film-making. Alright, everyone, thanks for listening.

Dr. Robert Pearl went to college to learn philosophy. But when his favorite professor was denied tenure, Dr. Pearl veered towards a career in cardiac surgery, naively believing it was devoid of politics. But his naivety was short-lived. Pearl says he quickly became disillusioned by the inequalities he discovered in his specialty and profession. He shifted course again and became a plastic surgeon, finding a renewed passion for medicine after he went to Mexico to help children with cleft lips and cleft palates. Later offered a chance to lead Kaiser Permanente, Dr. Pearl describes how he sacrificed his love of surgery to rescue the nation’s largest medical group from its dire predicament (when he took over as CEO, the group had just two days left of cash reserves, in violation of California regulations, which required three). In the process of turning the company around, Pearl realized with a shock just how broken the U.S. healthcare system really is today and how much effort it will take to set it right. Pearl’s disillusionment came full circle when his father died from long-term complications from an easily preventable medical mistake. And he began to grasp the financial, emotional, and social toll that medical mistakes cause, including 200,000 deaths annually. Pearl shares how he took his father’s death to heart and vowed to spend the remainder of his time as CEO of Kaiser Permanente and beyond solving some of these seemingly intractable problems. In concluding this compelling saga of the education of an American doctor, Pearl mentions some striking examples of companies such as Amazon that are trying to solve the healthcare dilemma. And he describes how he is continuing his mission and passion to transform U.S. healthcare today in his third career as an author, professor, and public speaker. Transcript Download the PDF Chitra Ragavan: Hello, and welcome to When it Mattered. I'm Chitra Ragavan. On this episode, we will be talking to Dr. Robert Pearl. He's the former CEO of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Group, the nation's largest medical group. He also serves as a clinical professor of plastic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine, and is on the faculty of the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Chitra Ragavan: Dr. Pearl is the author of the bestselling book, Mistreated: Why We Think We're Getting Good Healthcare – and Why We're Usually Wrong. Robert, welcome to the podcast. Robert Pearl : Thank you very much for having me. Chitra Ragavan: How did you enter the field of medicine? Did you always want to be a doctor? Robert Pearl : I went to college to become a university professor. I expected to be a teacher of philosophy, but the professor that I thought was the best didn't get tenure, not because he wasn't excellent at the field, he ultimately became the chairman at Reed, but because of his political views. And I decided I didn't want to go into something that would be based on politics; and in the naivety of a 20-year-old, I thought it would be medicine. Robert Pearl : When people learn about my career, the CEO of actually the nation's largest medical group, and thinking that I was going into it to avoid politics, they often laugh. But that's how I saw it; it was life and death, and why should politics come into the middle? And so I went to Yale Medical School to become a doctor. Chitra Ragavan: And what was your specialty that you wanted to pursue? Robert Pearl : That's also interesting, because not wanting to get caught in political crossfires, I thought that cardiovascular surgery would be the best. At the time, the mortality rate was moderately high, and those surgeons who could get the best results, the lowest mortality,
In this episode, Don takes your calls and questions, fielding queries about severance packages, pensions, short term investments and weighing the use of stocks at later stages in life. Don makes the argument that bonds can be a better choice at certain times for their stability as well as explains the big lesson that we can learn from DALBAR's 2018 study on the performance of the markets over time. Best utilization of a severance package in preparation for retirement. Pensions, IRAs and lifestyle changes while your money grows. The discouraging nature of investing without outside, expert help. Good repositories for a short term, lump sum. What the 2018 study by DALBAR proved beyond a shadow of a doubt. Should you keep investing your money in stocks in your seventies?

The biggest problem in American health care is us. Do you know how to tell good health care from bad health care? Guess again. As patients, we wrongly assume the best care is dependent mainly on the newest medications, the most complex treatments, and the smartest doctors. But Americans look for healthcare solutions in the wrong places. For example, hundreds of thousands of lives could be saved each year if doctors reduced common errors and maximized preventive medicine. For Dr. Robert Pearl, these kinds of mistakes are a matter of professional importance, but also personal significance: he lost his own father due in part to poor communication and treatment planning by doctors. And consumers make costly mistakes too: we demand modern information technology from our banks, airlines, and retailers, but we passively accept last century’s technology in our health care. Solving the challenges of health care starts with understanding these problems. Mistreated: Why We Think Were Getting Good Health Care and Why Were Usually Wrong (PublicAffairs, 2017) explains why subconscious misperceptions are so common in medicine, and shows how modifying the structure, technology, financing, and leadership of American health care could radically improve quality outcomes. This important book proves we can overcome our fears and faulty assumptions, and provides a roadmap for a better, healthier future. Jeremy Corr is the co-host of the hit Fixing Healthcare podcast along with industry thought leader Dr. Robert Pearl. A University of Iowa history alumnus, Jeremy is curious and passionate about all things healthcare, which means he’s always up for a good discussion! Reach him at jeremyccorr@gmail.com.
