prostate care, the health industry knows little
about which common treatments really work
(Cover, BusinessWeek, 0529) Dr David Eddy/Kaiser

problem is we do not know what we are doing.
Eddy 15 of what doctors do is backed by hard
evidence (BW) in general, 20 to 25.What
Doctors Hate About Hospitals (Cover, Time,
05.01) It remains almost a stroke of luck to
enter a U.S. hospital and receive precisely the
right treatment. (Time) No day passednot
onewithout a medication error. The errors were
not rare they were the norm (Don Berwick, on
his wifes treatment) One medication was
discontinued by a physicians order on the first
day of admission Berwicks wife and yet was
brought by a nurse every single evening fo 14
days straight. (Time) Harvard Public Health,
2002 study More than 1 in 3 doctors reported
errors in their own or a family members medical
care. (Time)

Epidemic of Medical Mistakes (Time) Dr Niteesh
Choudry, Harvard Med School More than half the
studies reviewed found decreasing performance
with increasing years of practice for all
outcomes assessed only 4 found increasing
performance with increasing age one study found
that for heart attack patients, mortality
increased 0.5 for every year the physician had
been out of medical school. (Time) My pizza

Acute-care facilities are killing fields.
(WE KNOW WHAT TO DO.)(2) Shift the community
focus 90 degrees (not 180, but not 25) from
fix it to prevent it. (WE KNOW WHAT TO
DO.)(3) There are three primary aims for all

  • TomRant2006
  • Hospital quality control, at least in the
    U.S.A., is a bad, bad joke Depending on whose
    stats you believe, hospitals kill 100,000 or so
    of us a yearand wound many times that number.
    Finally, they are getting around to dealing
    with the issue. Well, thanks. And what is it
    weve been buying for our Trillion or so bucks a
    year? The fix is eminently do-able which makes
    the condition even more intolerable.
  • 2. The systemtraining, docs, insurance
    incentives, culture, patients themselvesis
    hopelessly-mindlessly-insanely (as I see it)
    skewed toward fixing things (e.g. me) that are
    brokennot preventing the problem in the first
    place and providing the Maintenance Tools
    necessary for a healthy lifestyle. Sure,
    bio-medicine will soon allow us to understand and
    deal with individual genetic pre-dispositions.
    (And hooray!) But take it from this 63-year old,
    decades of physical and psychological self-abuse
    can literally be reversed in relatively short
    order by an encompassing approach to life that
    can only be described as a Passion for Wellness
    (and Well-being). Patientslike meare catching
    on in record numbers but the system is highly
    resistant. (Again, the doctors are among the
    biggest sinnersno surprise, following years of

Harvard Medical Practice Study 4 error rate (1
of 4 negligence). Subsequent investigations
around the country have confirmed the ubiquity of
error. In one small study of how clinicians
perform when patients have a sudden cardiac
arrest, 27 of 30 clinicians made an error in
using the defibrillator. Mistakes in
administering drugs (1995 study) average once
every hospital admission. Lucian Leape,
medicines leading expert on error, points out
that many other industrieswhether the task is
manufacturing semiconductors or serving customers
at the Ritz Carltonsimply wouldnt countenance
error rates like those in hospitals.

Geography Is DestinyOften all one must do to
acquire a disease is to enter a country where a
disease is recognizedleaving the country will
either cure the malady or turn it into something
else. Blood pressure considered treatably high
in the United States might be considered normal
in England and the low blood pressure treated
with 85 drugs as well as hydrotherapy and spa
treatments in Germany would entitle its sufferer
to lower life insurance rates in the United
States. Lynn Payer, Medicine Culture

A healthcare delivery system characterized by
idiosyncratic and often ill-informed judgments
must be restructured according to evidence-based
medical practice.Demanding Medical Excellence

Age, Michael Millenson
61
Without being disrespectful, I consider the U.S.
healthcare delivery system the largest cottage
industry in the world. There are virtually no
performance measurements and no standards. Trying
to measure performance is the next revolution
in healthcare.Richard Huber, former CEO, Aetna
62
Practice variation is not caused by bad or
ignorant doctors. Rather, it is a natural
consequence of a system that systematically
tracks neither its processes nor its outcomes,
preferring to presume that good facilities, good
intentions and good training lead automatically
to good results. Providers remain more
comfortable with the habits of a guild, where
each craftsman trusts his fellows, than with the
demands of the information age.Source Michael
Millenson, Demanding Medical Excellence
63
As unsettling as the prevalence of inappropriate
care is the enormous amount of what can only be
called ignorant care. A surprising 85 of
everyday medical treatments have never been
scientifically validated. For instance, when
family practitioners in Washington State were
queried about treating a simple urinary tract
infection, 82 physicians came up with an
extraordinary 137 strategies.Demanding Medical
Excellence Doctors and Accountability in the
Information Age, Michael Millenson

Most physicians believe that diagnosis cant be
reduced to a set of generalizationsto a
cookbook. How often does my intuition lead
me astray? The radical implication of the Swedish
study is that the individualized, intuitive
approach that lies at the center of modern
medicine is flawedit causes more mistakes than
it prevents. Atul Gawande, Complications

integratedfrom the lab to X-ray to records to

wait for anything. The information from the
physicians office is in registration and vice
versa. The referring physician is immediately
sent an email telling him his patient has shown
up. Its wireless in-house. We have 800
notebook computers that are wireless. Physicians
can walk around with a computer thats
pre-programmed. If the physician wants, well go
out and wire their house so they can sit on the
couch and connect to the network. They can review

Gwen former healthcare exec has wonderful
health insurance and an abundance of healthcare.
What Gwen does not have is health. And there is
nothing our health system can do to give it to
her. The battle cry is always health, but in
fact the struggle has always been over
healthcare. For all its inspiring, high-tech
cures, medicine is just not very effective at
curing our eras major killers. Medicine
doesnt do much chronic disease. When the
most common killers of our era are mostly
incurable and our preventive treatments pretty
feeble, you have to wonder about medical care as
a whole. There is a widely held view that
medical care contributes little to health. (John

1. The Importance of Human Interaction
119
There is a misconception that supportive
interactions require more staff or more time and
are therefore more costly. Although labor costs
are a substantial part of any hospital budget,
the interactions themselves add nothing to the
budget. Kindness is free. Listening to patients
or answering their questions costs nothing. It
can be argued that negative interactionsalienatin
g patients, being non-responsive to their needs
or limiting their sense of controlcan be very
costly. Angry, frustrated or frightened
patients may be combative, withdrawn and less
cooperativerequiring far more time than it would
have taken to interact with them initially in a
positive way. Putting Patients First, Susan
Frampton, Laura Gilpin, Patrick Charmel
120

Staff InteractionPS directly correlated with ES
(Employee Satisfaction)Source Putting
Patients First, Susan Frampton, Laura Gilpin,
Patrick Charmel
121
Perhaps the simplest and most profound of all
human interactions is KINDNESS. But if it is so
simple, it is surprising how frequently it is
absent from our healthcare environments. Many
staff members report verbal abuse by
physicians, managers and coworkers. Putting

3. Healing Partnerships The Importance of
Including Friends and Family
126
When hospital staff members are asked to list
the attributes of the perfect patient and
family, their response is usually a passive
patient with no family. Putting Patients First,
Susan Frampton, Laura Gilpin, Patrick Charmel
127
The Patient-Family ExperiencePatients are
stripped of control, their clothes are taken
away, they have little say over their schedule,
and they are deliberately separated from their
family and friends. Healthcare professionals
control all of the information about their
patients bodies and access to the people who can
answer questions and connect them with helpful
resources. Families are treated more as intruders
than loved ones. Putting Patients First, Susan
Frampton, Laura Gilpin, Patrick Charmel
128
Family members, close friends and significant
others can have a far greater impact on

long-term health and happiness, than any

Healthcare27 1. Fully utilize Physicians
Assistants to do routine work in a timely
fashion. (Doc in a Kiosk at WalMart is
great!) 2. Maximize Outpatient services! 3. Short
hospital stays work! 4. Support home care to the
max. (E.g., Declaration of IndependentsBeacon
Hill/Boston) 5. STOP THE 100K NEEDLESS
DEATHSmuch/most of the quality stuff is
eminently fixable. (Don Berwick for President!
AHA for Hall of Shame!) (Strong, vicious insurer
incentives!!!) 6. FLIP HC 177 DEGREES TO
EMPHASIZE PREVENTION WELLNESS. (Steps are
being taken but not enough. Med schools Awful!
Insurers Little better. Support for
appropriate-proven alternative therapies is an
important part.) (HUGE INCENTIVES FOR EFFECTIVE
WELLNESS-PREVENTION PROGRAMS-MEASURABLE
SUCCESSES.)
167

Healthcare27 7. Boomers will determine HCs
(very different?) future. (They are from a
different demanding planet compared to
yesterdays Oldsters.) 8. Focus on Women. (Its
my genericand correctrallying cry, and it
applies to HC in spades, women-as-patients-with
different-woes-than-men women-as-HC decision
makers at the consumerand commerciallevel.) 9.
Patient/Consumer-driven may be a buzz phrase
bandied about all to easily but it is true.
(And changes the game.) 10. Reduce incentives for
unnecessary tests. (Malpractice caps would help,
though the issue is complex. Insurers-HMOs doing
so-so on this.) 11. OUTCOME-BASED MEDICINE IS A
MUST! (There is a long, long way to go!) (Measure
until youre blue in the face!) 12. Science-based
medicine is a terrific idea!! (Many therapies
unproven scientifically, uneven in application
when proven.)
168

Healthcare27 13. Over the next 5-25 years, the
Life Sciences Revolution will make the likes of
the info revolution look like small beer. (Get
ready.) 14. Radical increase in best practices
utilizationinculcate in Med school! 15. Med
school revolution imperativeoutcome-based
medicine, abiding emphasis on Wellness
Prevention, etc. 16. Get info to Patients! (HIPAA
mostly good.I wanna see my records!) (Detailed
hospital-by-hospital, disease-by-disease,
doc-by-doc success records a must despite
controversy.) 17. Upgrade IS-IT in the entire
system, starting with acute-care institutions.
(Current grade D-.) (Winners include Indiana
Heart Hospital Inova Fairfax Heart
Institute.) 18. Healtheon WebMD-like (if it had
worked) mega-, integrated-info network
will-should emerge. (A healthcare Google?)
169

Healthcare27 19. MOVE HEAVEN EARTH TO
IMPLEMENT ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS. NOW. 20.
By hook or by crook, something approximating
basic universal care, starting with kids50 state
partial experiments is a help some are quite far
along. (Market-based as much as possiblebut
this is far from a perfect market.) 21. Deal
with the enormous HMO I want my doc perception
problem. (Fact MARCUS WELBY, STATISTICALLY,
AINT THAT GREAT A HEALER IN TODAYS HIGH
SCIENCE WORLD! Incidentally, same perception
problem re Congress, schools. My Congressman is
great, Congress has 434 other crook-clowns. My
kids school is good, the system is awful.) 22.
Blitzkrieg of Patient/Customer/Citizen education
(eg re outcomes-based HC Get the most for
your HC dollar). (Corporate cuts should motivate
this.) 23. Healing-centric care supported.
(E.g., Planetree modelreduces future problems.)
170
Healthcare27 24. Emphasize front-to-back
customer care practicescuts waaaaay down on
malpractice claims among other things. 25.
Specialization in acute care works wonders,
regardless of howls! (E.g., Shouldice/hernia
repair.) 26.Shorten the FDA approval process.
(Tom, age 63, wants the good new stuff and will
accept associated risk so will most
boomers-geezers.) 27.DONT MESS AROUND WITH
