Revolutionizing health care: Rethinking burnout and resilience
I read all the time about the strategies and measures physicians and other health care professionals take to mitigate, reduce, or immunize themselves against burnout, moral distress, and empathic strain. We have been talking about this for decades, with an increase in “burnout” as a result. It seems time to shift the paradigm to allow Read more… Revolutionizing health care: Rethinking burnout and resilience originally appeared in KevinMD.com. (Source: Kevin, M.D. - Medical Weblog)

What ’ s Special About AI Risks and Remedies in Health Care?
This article looks at what’s special about AI in health care, and some ways to address its needs. For this article, I spoke just to lawyers, because we’ve heard plenty from the technologists about AI’s potential and what they’re doing to minimize risk. The perspective of attorneys with an expertise in health care is illuminating. An anthology from STAT also contains some relevant analyses and case studies.

The Rising Use of Telehealth for the Delivery of Outpatient Mental Health Services
The following is a guest article by Michael Levinson, M.D., J.D., Partner at Berger Singerman LLP Telehealth has revolutionized the delivery of outpatient mental health services, and there has been exponential growth in the acceptance and delivery of remote care.

Econoclasm Chapter Two, continued: " Insurance "
 Health insurance – again I’m using the term because everybody else does, not because I think it’s accurate – can work in many ways. One of the most important broad dimensions is how the benefit gets delivered. ·Indemnity plans are the most like fire insurance. They pay money when the beneficiary incurs medical expenses. (The money could be paid to the beneficiary, or directly to the provider. That doesn ’t much matter.)·Service benefit plans have negotiated arrangements with providers to pay them a certain amount for a given service, when it is provided.·Service delivery plans actually provide the s...
