In today's episode, we have a captivating discussion about a groundbreaking book that turns our understanding of healthcare as we know it today.
Joining us is the esteemed Dr. Henry Buchwald, a seasoned healthcare professional who has witnessed the transformation of healthcare over the past 50 years. Drawing from his vast experience and keen observations, Dr. Buchwald offers a unique perspective on the current state of healthcare in the United States.

Instead, it seems to cater more to administrators and bureaucracy, resulting in an expensive and impersonal system that may not truly serve the best interests of the nation or its people.
Dr. Buchwald fearlessly addresses the broken doctor-patient relationship and explores the profound effects of pandemics like COVID-19 on our healthcare system. He leaves us with his vision for the future and the areas where he believes our healthcare efforts should be focused.

Support for Primary Care
In this episode, we are showing our support for primary care physicians and how we can help them improve documentation.
Primary care physicians are the backbone of our healthcare system. They provide comprehensive health care services to patients and serve as the first line of defense against illness and disease.
Unfortunately, primary care physicians often struggle to keep up with the mountain of documentation requirements required which means that their time spent with patients is diminished, resulting in less efficient patient care.
That’s why we are here today, to discuss ways that primary care physicians can improve their documentation without sacrificing the quality of their patient care.
We will chat with our special guest, national speaker, and risk adjustment expert Christine Hall CHC (AAPC Instructor) CPC , CPB, CPMA, CRC, CEMC, CPC-I
