About Medicine in America
In some ways we are at a crossroads in healthcare in the USA. We, have more technology and data available as resources, but yet we can’t overcome the behavioral challenges of patients nor the economic inefficiencies that have become inherent in our healthcare system.
Medicine in America is a new podcast that shares the stories of physicians and other healthcare professionals – many of whom are conflicted and overburdened by the new realities of today’s healthcare environment – that spotlight how they are working to change the way they practice and deliver patient care. We will hear what made them realize they had to reinvent and rethink their approach to treating patients. Their innovative ideas are at the forefront of a burgeoning movement today to transform a healthcare environment wrought with complexity, demanding in its pace, and quietly burning out clinicians who have faced the upheaval of COVID and the daily challenges of the inherent inefficiencies in medicine.
It is time for a change.
