The Wall Street Journal article covers the main "pain points" in the healthcare system. I like that some hospitals are being proactive to try to mitigate some wait times and patient/provider communication, but this doesn't address the Medicare payment cuts and hoops many private practices and specialists have to go through with insurance to get paid. I hear from some physicians with hospital systems, they are like concierge docs but aren't paid like them. Meaning, they respond to patients and work after clinic hours but are not compensated for the additional work. #conciergemedicine #privatepractice

Busy hospitals face significant challenges in efficiently triaging patients. Lengthy wait times. Misallocation of resources. Varying levels of care that don’t align with patient needs. Others and I see this frequently, and it’s frustrating. A central triage team may struggle with the complexity and nuances of patient presentations. This can lead to over-triage (patients unnecessarily placed in high-acuity settings) and under-triage (critical cases not getting immediate attention). If we had better triage protocols and AI-assisted systems, we could improve patient flow and resource allocation. We could even develop multidisciplinary triage teams to bring diverse expertise to the process. Maybe this is just a pet peeve of mine. And it’s a system problem—not a patient, staff, or physician problem. There needs to be a more robust way to triage. I’ll rant more about this problem and analyze it in tomorrow’s Inefficiency Insights newsletter.
