CROSS-POD: Transforming Patient Care with a Holistic Approach | That's Derm Good!

Episode 014 | I'm excited to bring you something a bit different for which full credit goes to the wonderful and generous Janelle Ball, founder & CEO at BC Educators, LLC. My conversation with Janelle originally appeared on her excellent podcast, That's Derm Good!, so that's why it sounds different than a typical episode of The Direct Care Derm. If you enjoy it, consider checking out some other episodes of her show.Janelle and her team have made patient access their priority, which is a big job. If you're not a doctor and have never heard of a biologic coordinator, I'm not surprised. These individuals and teams play a critical but often unsung role in navigating the complex, costly, and opaque road from the moment a physician in the U.S. prescribes a biologic medication to the moment the patient finally receives the first dose. While our conversation is about my approach to holistic care within dermatology rather than the specific role of the biologic coordinator, it's important to remember the role biologic coordinators play so we can recognize and properly value the work they do.Enjoy!In this episode:🔥 Raising the standard of care🔥 What is holistic dermatology?
