3: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the Diagnostic Process
In this episode, we speak to the co-founder of the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine (SIDM) Paul Epner to get the skinny on the good, the bad, and the ugly of the diagnostic process and ways of using health IT and patient engagement to improve it, as well as health inequities and social determinants of health that can contribute to misdiagnosis and non-diagnosis, which we hope to expand on in future episodes. We also hear about the humble and surprisingly recent beginnings that led to the impressive current state of SIDM, what inspired its inception, and where it's headed in the future.
