Using Cutting Edge Treatments While Limiting Liability
In this episode of the Growing a Successful Orthopedic Practice Podcast, Jeff Segal, M.D., J.D., CEO and Founder of Medical Justice, joins Keith Landry to discuss how orthopedic physicians can use stem-cell therapies and other cutting edge treatments in their practices while limiting liability.
Dr. Segal explains if a physician manipulates stem cells and puts them back into the body to serve a different purpose than the original one, the FDA treats that like a drug and will likely require a new drug application. He reminds us a physician's claims about the benefits of stem-cell therapy must be supported by medical literature.
Tune in to discover:
- State boards of medicine are now getting involved to regulate stem-cell therapy
- Consult with a health law attorney to understand your role in using stem cells
- Physicians who offer stem-cell therapy need to work with a vendor with a great reputation
- Clearly explain the benefits and other factors before using PRP treatments
- How exaggerated claims about stem cell benefits have the FDA taking a hands on approach to regulation
