Join us for a fascinating podcast episode as we explore the dangerous consequences of propaganda and misinformation within the context of the opioid epidemic. Our guest, Jay K. Joshi, a family physician and author of Burden of Pain: A Physician’s Journey through the Opioid Epidemic, shares his personal experiences and insights. Discover the chilling tale of how sensationalized news articles distorted the truth, affecting the author’s reputation and public perception. We delve into the impact on relationships with colleagues, friends, and family, as well as the consequences of self-promotion and the manipulation of narratives. Jay critically examines the way the opioid epidemic is discussed and emphasizes the dangers of simplification and assigning blame. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation that sheds light on the complexities of the epidemic and the urgent need for a more nuanced understanding and effective solutions.

Jay K. Joshi is a family physician.

He shares his story and discusses his book, Burden of Pain: A Physician’s Journey through the Opioid Epidemic.

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

Ambient intelligence augments human capabilities to make our lives easier. The applications are many, especially in health care. Ambient clinical intelligence is offsetting the most pressing challenges in health care today, such as burnout, physician shortages, physician and patient dissatisfaction, and underperforming financial outcomes, by applying the technology to clinical documentation. 

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, utilizes artificial intelligence and natural language processing to automatically document care. It securely listens to and captures the natural, clinician-patient encounter conversation unobtrusively, and turns that conversation into a clinical note for the clinician’s review and signature directly in the electronic health record. You just talk naturally, and DAX does the rest. 

DAX is being used by thousands of physicians across 30 different specialties nationwide. It has already won the Silver Stevie award in the health care technology category and was ranked #1 for improving clinician experience in KLAS’s top 20 emerging solutions.
