Using Health Care Responsibly

from The Word on Medicine

We have a great show for you this Saturday which will provide all of the answers you have come to expect from The Word on Medicine. We will discuss the potential overuse and the potential underuse of health care. Have you seen situations where the treatment may have seemed worse than the disease? Have you heard of situations where a diagnosis may have been missed or a treatment not applied for a somewhat routine problem? Complex issues in today’s healthcare, but ones that are so important for us to deal with. Drs. Karl Bilimoria, Stacy O’Connor, Anu Elegbede, Tracy Wang, Anai Kothari and Carrie Peterson anchor this unique program and they are joined by Gabriella Pyptiuk (nurse practitioner) Erin Dorn (Charge Nurse in the Surgical Intensive Care Unit) and one of Dr. Peterson’s patients. The Word on Medicine is really thrilled to have Dr. Karl Bilimoria join us for this program - he is the founder of the Surgical Outcomes and Quality Improvement Center at Northwestern. This show is packed with important information for us all so be sure to listen!
