In this episode, Alisa Sano, a public health research assistant, shares her personal story of loss and the impact of medical errors on families.

We will explore the complexities of the health care system, including the “swiss cheese model” and authority gradient, and the importance of open communication between health care providers and patients.

Alisa emphasizes the importance of health care providers taking responsibility for their mistakes and the impact of simple apologies on families. She also encourages patients and their loved ones to be proactive in advocating for their own health and safety.

This is a must-listen episode for health care professionals and those who have experienced the devastating effects of medical errors.

Alisa Sano is a public health research assistant.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Don’t lie about medical errors. Apologize.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With a growing physician shortage, increasing burnout, and declining patient satisfaction, a dramatic change is needed to make health care more efficient and effective and bring back the joy of practicing medicine. AI-driven ambient clinical intelligence promises to help by revolutionizing patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
