Relentless Health ValueEP392: When Patient Journeys Don’t Fit in the EHR System, With Emily Kagan Trenchard From Northwell HealthSo, a few things to remind everybody. First of all, don’t forget EHRs (electronic health records) were purpose built originally for billing. This is no secret. People quite openly have called EHR systems glorified cash registers. If I want to be generous, maybe I would restate this to say that EHRs were designed to document patient interactions. This is what their core architecture was built to achieve. But today, there’s a lot that goes on that isn’t a traditional patient interaction. First of all, me even calling it, frankly, a patient interaction should give longti...2023-01-2631 min

Wild TalkLife Among the Dead at Green-Wood Cemetery [Wild Talk Short]Green-Wood Cemetery, in the middle of Brooklyn, feels unexpectedly wild. The 478 acres are alive with big old trees, flowers, bees, fungus, birds, wild and feral animals. Yes, it's also full of dead people — the “permanent residents” of Green-Wood, as they refer to them, comprise a Who’s Who of 19th century New York: famous actresses and Civil War generals, industrialists, businessmen, developers. There's Boss Tweed, there's Samuel Morris, inventor of the Morse code. But a visit to Green-Wood makes it clear that this cemetery is for the living. It's not just a burial ground. It's a breeding ground. A place of...2022-01-0620 minWild TalkResilient Cities, with Jainey BavishiJainey Bavishi is the director of the New York City Mayor's Office of Climate Resiliency — overseeing more than $20 billion worth of investments to prepare New York City for the impacts of climate change.

While digital tools and ways of gathering have helped us stay somewhat connected, they lack the capacity to help us relax, have fun, build trust and rapport and get to know each other in our more full selves.
Organizations are struggling to find ways to gather that feel safe and meet this moment which is leading us to a new normal. It can be important to gather, at least occasionally, in person and what better way to do that than safely outdoors in the c...2021-08-1219 minWild TalkMelanin & Medicine, with Dr. Omolara UwemedimoAs the country continues to grapple with the impact of racism in our communities, we wanted to understand how an institution like healthcare - which prides itself on scientific objectivity - was coming to terms with the impact racism has on doctors and patients alike.

As the Associate Vice President of Addiction Services for Northwell Health, he is on the frontlines of the fight against opioid addiction — at a time where substance use and abuse is on the rise.
Dr. Kapoor has taken a different approach to this fight than many others — he’s starting with words. He trains clinicians on the power of language, how the terms we use around addiction can reinforce the shame and silence that keep people from seeking care, or can open up new conversations that destigm...2021-03-0850 minWild TalkHow To Winter [Wild Talk Short]In this short episode, co-host Jay Erickson explores the value of embracing winter.
