Why physicians should care about the False Claims Act


Listen Later

Our guest, Scott Ellner, a general surgeon, shares insights and real-life stories that shed light on the challenges health care providers face when financial incentives clash with patient-centered care. We'll explore the impact of wasteful spending, the power of the False Claims Act in combatting fraud, and the Department of Justice's evolving focus on value-based payment models.

Scott Ellner has been a general surgeon for over 20 years, and can be reached at PEAK Health.

He discusses the KevinMD article, "In the crosshairs: The False Claims Act’s new targets in health care."

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.

Together, Microsoft and Nuance are leveraging their rich digital technology and advanced AI capabilities to tackle some of health care's biggest challenges. AI-driven technology promises to revolutionize patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. DAX Copilot combines proven conversational and ambient AI with the most advanced generative AI in a mobile application that integrates directly with your existing workflows.

Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 85 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.
