Ep. 41 Leading the future of pediatric care

In this episode, pediatric intensivist Eloa Adams, MD (Director of Inpatient Pediatrics Quality & Operations, TPMG) joins host Alex McDonald, MD to explore how integrated, community-based pediatrics keeps kids close to home. We dig into the rise of pediatric “care deserts,” why TPMG maintains local inpatient capacity, how tele-critical care links community EDs to specialists, and a sepsis-prevention effort summed up by “more awareness = more birthdays.” We also touch on supporting anxious parents, lessons for the wider system in value-based care, and what’s next for pediatric care delivery.Guest: Eloa Adams, MDHost: Alex McDonald, MDThanks for listening!
