During the recording of episode 409, where Larry Bauer was explaining some really cool and innovative bright spots in the healthcare industry created by physicians, we somehow got off on a tangent about an article in JAMA from 2010—and I was all in. Unfortunately, going all in on a topic that has nothing to do with the actual topic of the currently in progress podcast means one thing; and you probably know by now what that one thing is. Yep … summer short. So, let me unveil for you our last summer short of 2023. In this healthcare podcast, we're gonna talk about doctors and the societal perception of them as being a knight, a knave, or a pawn. All of this is from a JAMA article that is entitled, surprisingly enough, “Societal Perceptions of Physicians: Knights, Knaves, or Pawns?” and it's by Sachin Jain, MD, MBA, and Christine Cassel, MD, and is unfortunately firewalled (but I've linked to it anyway). To get us started here, this is the first sentence of that JAMA article: “The British economist Julian Le Grand suggested that public policy is grounded in a conception of humans as ‘knights,' ‘knaves,' or ‘pawns.' Human beings are motivated by virtue (knights) or rigid self-interest (knaves) or are passive victims of their circumstances (pawns).” And, yeah, that plays out. Why can't physicians own hospitals? Well, in somebody's eyes, docs got a knave rap. How'd that happen? I don't know. I can make some guesses. Even if it's a small percentage of docs doing knave-y money grabs or power-hungry things, there is spillover. We societal humans, after all, like black and white, not gray. So, everybody gets painted with the same brush in the same color, and policy gets created to control the lowest common denominators. I loved this conversation with Larry Bauer that follows because it explains a lot of sequelae, if you will, that I couldn't quite put my finger on the root cause of. So, in the brief but fast-moving clip of the conversation that follows, Larry Bauer and I chat about docs as knaves or knights. But we don't get around to pawns, so I did just want to chuck in my two cents here about this third category. I also will say that since I've got these three new classifications, I find myself using it to predict actions—to some effect, I might add. I was chatting with someone recently, and I said something about doing well by doing good and he replied, “Well, how about this? You can do the good, and I'll focus on doing well by doing well.” Okay … so, that's a predictive layup. The harder ones are where people with a lot of press training and social capital do talks about doing good and being knightly, but then you listen to the minutes of their board meetings and, wow, are they focused on revenue maximization … at the expense of patients and their fellow doctors. This happens more often than I would like to see, but then again, I would like to see this happen never. As I mentioned about eight sentences ago, the category we don't talk about in this conversation with Larry Bauer that follows—which has also occupied a chunk of my mind space lately—are pawns. As with all of these categories, it's not just docs who fall into them but everybody else, too. Pawns are super interesting. You might be way ahead of me here and have been thinking about this for years because, on its face, this is obvious. But sometimes there's truth hiding in plain sight, so I'm not embarrassed to keep talking about this in case it helps you connect the same dots I've recently started to connect. I will state at the outset here that those who I would chuck in the pawn category do not listen to this podcast (neither do knaves). They do not like this show at all. This show forces a level of self-reflection and awareness and, to some degree, accountability about the net net of some of the goings-on that those who don't want to hear it don't like at all. I was reading an article the other day about the “tragedy of organizational decision-making.” Kind of like the tragedy of the commons if you're familiar with that terminology, but don't worry about it at all if you're not. The tragedy of organizational decision-making is that everybody in companies, especially big ones, is making lots of decisions. Tens of thousands of decisions happen in any given company on any given day, but so few then feel accountable or responsible or are even keeping track of the downstream and ultimate impact or consequences of any of the combined actions. It's this big machine, and you'll hear some people say that they are but a cog “just doing my job” with no sight line into patient or member or community or societal impact. Without this context or accountability or ownership, it is so easy to make decisions that take to the extremes what should be a nuanced plan of action. And then we get what we've currently got. Look, anybody who is part of a larger organization has to toe the party line to some extent; but there's a difference between making informed choices and seeking ways to deliver a net positive for those we ultimately serve and doing things without contemplation. This is one thing that I love about the Relentless Tribe: just how much contemplation happens. I am still working this out in my own head. I would welcome your feedback and thoughts, but from what I've seen so far, what pervades some of this pawn-like thinking might be—and I empathize with this a lot—it could be a feeling of powerlessness. Why bother being a knight, because nothing I do really matters anyway? Sometimes people just throw hands in air and, yeah, a familiar feeling even amongst those of us who try to think things through and have manifestos. So, I get it. But whereas this feeling of powerlessness causes some of us, meaning you and me, to double down on reflection, it may cause others to just quit trying altogether because they think they have a snowball's chance in hell of influencing absolutely anything. If it helps you in conversations that you might be having at some point with someone who may be feeling powerless, here's a quote I memorized: “Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.” That was Vincent Van Gogh who said that. You also have Malcolm Gladwell from his book The Tipping Point, which talked about how many people have to be doing something to reach a tipping point: 12%. That's doable. If basically 1 out of 10-ish people in any organization becomes a knight, the minority becomes the majority. Or here's another quote that has some problems admittedly, but it makes a good point if you don't cognate on it too hard: “If you think you are too small to make an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito in the room.” That was Anita Roddick. Anyway, I hope that's inspirational or helpful to you in some way.   You can learn more at the Family Medicine Education Consortium Web site or by emailing Larry at laurence.bauer@gmail.com.

In this healthcare podcast, we are talking about innovative primary care teams and, by way of Larry Bauer, my guest today, bringing you three inspiring case studies. Much can be inferred from these case studies, as much from how they are alike as how they are different. It is wildly important at the same time that it is wildly underappreciated how different local markets are. I love how Cody Coonradt put it on LinkedIn the other day. He wrote: “Healthcare is not a $4T market—it's 500 some-odd interconnected markets ranging in size from $1-50B. [It is] not a singular problem … each market [is driven] by unique third party payer incentives with unique patient cohorts. … “Before you figure out the next great idea—seek to understand the underlying health economic, revenue cycle, service provider contracting, and cash conversion processes that undergird it all. [That] is how to truly disrupt healthcare.” Or, said another way, if you're part of the community, if you are already caring for patients in that community because you're a doctor or another clinician, you probably have the best shot at truly—and in meaningful ways—helping patients in that community. This whole statement is a really uncomfortable truth for many in private equity and anybody else who wants to find the easy button to fix healthcare with some big-ass, scalable, rapid-fire bulldozer approach. It's also a very uncomfortable truth for any national payer looking for one model or one point solution to roll out in a broad stroke to every one of these 500 some-odd interconnected markets that Cody mentioned. One size does not fit all here, and leveling up patient outcomes and care is hard grueling work that requires local market knowledge, being rooted in the community with relationships to succeed. You gotta get a little closer to the ground. Policymakers, please take some notes here. And you, too, self-insured employers, payers. So many universal lessons are embedded in these three examples that Larry Bauer, my guest, shares today. But bottom line—and round of applause required—you go, all you doctors and nurses and other clinicians or mission-oriented teams who take it upon yourselves to find ways to address the problem of human suffering in your local area. Stay tuned for an upcoming show with Jodilyn Owen, where we dig into this whole dynamic hard. I'm talking about the dynamic where some barbarian at the gate (ie, some venture-funded start-up) has gotten money—in some cases, lots of money—while there are community-based organizations out there who are doing amazing work really helping patients in the community improving outcomes and cutting costs and struggling, scrambling for every penny they can manage to get their hands on. So, that's in the future. Talking about today, though, we're gonna cover the bright spots when you get a really creative and committed PCP (primary care) team who is part of their own community and who wants to do better by patients locally and got some money to attain that goal. Today, as I said earlier, I am talking with Larry Bauer, who has been working with innovative PCPs and other docs for decades. All three of these case studies that Larry describes on the show today concern frail elderly adults, and this is on purpose (this using of the same patient population) for a couple of reasons. One of them is just to highlight that the same population in different geographies is not the same population and, therefore, the solution set is going to be different if we're gonna reach out and care for them. The second reason for selecting three solutions that all pertain to frail elders is that this group is notoriously expensive and care is notoriously poor. Everybody has a story about how their frail elderly family member or friend died a bad death or did not “finish well,” as Larry Bauer puts it. It's a patient population at the mercy of this industry and unable, a lot of times, to advocate for themselves. So, solutions here solve, in a way, for the worst-case scenario and might be a great starting point for anybody contemplating how to help other patient populations, too. The three innovations we discuss today are: 1. Dan Hoefer, MD, and Suzie Johnson in their Transition Program in San Diego helping those at the end of their lives to “finish well.” This is a capitated program. 2. Ken Coburn, MD, who, along with his team, created Health Quality Partners in Pennsylvania. This is a nurse navigator program, and it is paid for by a CMS grant. 3. Alan “Chip” Teel, MD, at Full Circle America with a program to wire up patient homes so that the clinical team could monitor what was going on in the home, intervene in case of emergencies, as well as organize community services. This program is paid for by the patient or the patient's family, but, point of note, it is 10 times cheaper than a nursing home. I do ask Larry Bauer, by the way, how to best walk the line between right-sized care and not enough care (ie, the whole death panel counterargument to some of this stuff). I think Larry's answer was elegant. You're gonna need to listen to the show to hear it. My guest today is Larry Bauer, as I have mentioned four to six times already. He is a social worker by training who has been at this, as he says, for a very long time. He created a not-for-profit called Family Medicine Education Consortium (FMEC) over 30 years ago, and it became a platform for bringing together very talented and capable family physicians and some general internists. This gang has been really redefining and re-creating primary care … which is a great way to sum up the three programs that Larry Bauer will talk about today.   You can learn more at the Family Medicine Education Consortium Web site or by emailing Larry at laurence.bauer@gmail.com.

Is SOY safe?  Should we be eating it?  In this podcast, we are joined by Dr David Phillips who will help us unpack all of the things you may have been told about the dangers of SOY.  Dr Phillips shines a light on the multitude of benefits that SOY can play in our everyday diet and explains rock solid research that has been done to prove this.   He'll explain the type and quality of soy you should consume.  We also address the fear that people have about soy as it relates to their fear over increased estrogen and cancer risks.  Many people have been led to believe that whey protein is superior to soy so we break down the difference between the two.  We also get into the subject of man boobs.  Oh my! To learn more about the Juice Plus+ Complete shake mix as well as the plant powder capsules mentioned in this podcast please visit: https://peterson9.juiceplus.com/us/enHere's a little about our guest speaker, Dr David Phillips: Dr. Phillips graduated from Harvard University in 1984 where he earned academic honors and was an All-American swimmer. After graduation he spent time in a research lab at Duke University investigating methods for the early detection of pancreatic cancer.He received his medical degree from Wright State University School of Medicine where he finished in the top one percent of his class and was elected to the prestigious national academic Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society. After practicing as a Board Certified Emergency Physician he came to the realization that many of the diseases he was treating were also very preventable by adopting a healthy lifestyle. As a result. Dr. Phillips used both his academic knowledge and athletic background and shifted his focus to the field of preventative medicine. He has written numerous articles on the important role that nutrition plays in overall health and particularly athletic performance. Dr. Phillips has also competed in triathlons over the last several years winning numerous regional as well as national masters competitions including the St. Croix Half Ironman qualifying him to compete in the "Superbowl" of ironman competitions, the Ironman World Championships in Hawaii.

Now baby listen, I know I got some intelligent people in my life, but the way Dr. Presley's brain works is a thing of beauty. The way she makes associations, breaks down constructs, pulls in historical context, all while helping you get your life together in the present day is UNMATCHED. I know I say this every week, but I can't wait for y'all to hear my good sis learn ya a lil sumn sumn. This was a word y'all!

She currently works as a mental health professional in Indianapolis, IN, providing an array of clinical services in private practice, schools and college counseling settings.

This is such a valuable lecture that I wanted to share it with our listeners. This is with Dr. Eriksen's permission. Dr. Nancy Eriksen speaks on the impact of nutrition/lifestyle factors on: *hormonal health *osteoporosis *breast cancer risk You will learn about lifestyle strategies you can implement to optimize your health during menopause. As well as the impact of a whole food plant based diet and how it can enhance your hormonal health, prevent osteoporosis and breast cancer. "Nutrition can impact the symptoms of menopause, which are vasomotor symptoms including hot flashes and night sweats. There are central symptoms including insomnia, mood changes, brain fog, and urogenital symptoms such as vaginal dryness and painful intercourse. Vasomotor symptoms are common in women with hot flashes occurring in nearly 80% of women in the West in the US and Europe, as compared to relatively few of Asian women. In fact, in the Japanese language, there isn't even a word for hot flashes because they rarely get them. And the median duration of symptoms is about 10 years. Vasomotor symptoms happen to be the most common reason for sleep irregularities, which is why women are so motivated to not have them." "Heart disease is still the number one killer of women followed by cancer. So that means nearly 40% of all deaths in women are one of these two. Menopause represents an opportune time then to think about lifestyle changes, not only to help you during menopause, but also in the bigger picture to reduce the risk or reverse multiple chronic diseases." Dr. Nancy Louise Eriksen graduated with a B.S. in Biology from The University of Miami in Miami, Florida in 1981, and an M.D degree from Wright State University School of Medicine in 1985. Dr. Eriksen completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Wright State University affiliated hospital in 1989 and then a fellowship in maternal Fetal Medicine at The University of Houston Health Sciences Center in 1991. She is currently an Associate Professor in Maternal-Fetal Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.

The Enneagram provides nine consistent, fairly predictable ways for us to understand and tell our narrative of how we operate in the world and make sense of our lives. It’s a tool that helps us enter into a conversation with ourselves about the recurring themes and patterns of behaviors that are self-defeating or hurtful to others. One of the themes that operates as a thread in each of our lives is shame. Next to love, I believe shame is the most powerful force in the universe, but in the wrong direction. In today’s profoundly moving, heart-changing episode, author and psychiatrist Dr. Curt Thompson joins me for a deep conversation about shame and how it plays out as a human experience for all nine types.

In this interview, Dr. Hennessey describes the history, refinements, implementation, physiology, and clinical outcomes achieved over the past several centuries of thyroid hormone replacement strategies. Topics discussed in this episode include: The history of levothyroxin Chinese using thyroid hormone to treat cretinism in the 6th century What is cretinism? Dangers of hypothyroidism during pregnancy Prescribed 3-step process when hypothyroidism is treated when pregnant The history of sheep thyroid as a treatment? In the 1920’s thyroid hormone was synthesized T3 was synthesized in the 1950’s When to take thyroid medication, morning or night? A rich history of physician intervention in thyroid dysfunction was identified dating back more than 2 millennia. Although not precisely documented, thyroid ingestion from animal sources had been used for centuries but was finally scientifically described and documented in Europe over 130 years ago. Since the reports by Bettencourt and Murray, there has been a continuous documentation of outcomes, refinement of hormone preparation production, and updating of recommendations for the most effective and safe use of these hormones for relieving the symptoms of hypothyroidism. As the thyroid extract preparations contain both levothyroxine (LT4) and liothyronine (LT3), current guidelines do not endorse their use as controlled studies do not clearly document enhanced objective outcomes compared with LT4 monotherapy. Among current issues cited, the optimum ratio of LT4 to LT3 has yet to be determined, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not appear to be monitoring the thyroid hormone ratios or content in extract preparations on the market. Taken together, these limitations are important detriments to the use of thyroid extract products. James V. Hennessey, MD is Director of Clinical Endocrinology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, MA. He is an Associate Professor of Medicine at the Harvard medical School.  He completed medical training at the Medical Faculty of the Karl Franzens University in Graz Austria.
