    "Insights into reimbursements are a critical function for healthcare organizations. Reimbursements vary significantly by geography, market-centricity, coverage of services. ZignaAI has gathered all the contracted rates by provider and payer for 1000+ services across the nation and this can be used to evaluate reimbursements by lines of business and geographies."

Novel Insight into the Quality of Assessment of Physicians | Open Access | OMICS Intern... - 0 views

  •  
    This study about medical regulation in Missouri details the numerous errors in evaluating the care provided by Dr. Antoine Adem. The state medical board tried to discipline the cardiologist's medical license for allegedly providing negligent and unsafe patient care. Unfortunately, what this article highlights, is that it was not Dr. Adem who failed ot use his skills and knowledge in the duties of the profession, but it was the members of the Missouri Board of Registration for the Healing Arts who failed to demonstrate competent medical knowledge and sufficient skills to properly evaluate the medical care provided by their licensees. If a physician on the medical board is unable to evaluate the care provided by a licensee, then they may pose a danger to the public due to their incompetence and, at the very least, should be second-guessed.

    This is a very important question! Any changes in this sphere?
  •  
    The findings on State Medical Board misconduct are concerning. Effective communication within these boards is crucial for patient safety. I think legislators and healthcare advocates should push for reforms to ensure boards comprise professionals capable of teamwork. Also, it is worth exploring various technology-driven solutions that transform the patient experience and financial performance of healthcare providers.

Breast Cancer Scandal of 2011 - 0 views

  •  
    The 2011 UMKC Pathology Breast Cancer Scandal was a cover-up of the prolonged, unsafe, ischemic times provided to women with breast cancer in the UMKC-TMC Pathology Department. Reports of unsafe patient care went neglected by the pathology chair, an attending, the residents, the DIO. I reported this to the ACGME in 2011 and in 2014 I discovered that the UMKC-Graduate Medical Education office lied to the ACGME about months of breast cancer care.

Is your doctor on probation? - 0 views

  • s your doctor on probation?
  • Thousands of doctors are being disciplined by state medical boards for serious wrongdoing. But finding out who those doctors are can be difficult
  • The takeaway - doctors on the state medical board engage in conduct far more unethical than many of the physicians they discipline... Harming patients is okay, if they do it. However, reporting patient harm and unsafe patient care is unethical - at least according to the Missouri medical board. 
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Consumer Reports' investigation shows how hard it can be to find out whether your doctor has been cited for substandard medical care or other issues.
  • The North Carolina medical board staff are kind and courteous and occasionally would reply to me, but the executive director and the staff of the Missouri Board of Registration for the Healing Arts acts contemptuously towards others that ask them to not file blatant lies in court about months of unsafe breast cancer testing. 
  •  
    The takeaway is that doctors on the Missouri Board of Registration for the Healing Arts show partiality while claiming to protect the public.
