_______

While telemedicine is growing rapidly, not every physician is eager to jump on board.

Dr. Hussain Mithaiwala shares why he prefers practicing in person. He discusses the importance of the "eyeball test" in patient care, the potential pitfalls of virtual-only evaluations, and his concerns about collaborating with unfamiliar providers.

Dr. Mithaiwala emphasizes that while telemedicine reduces barriers for patients, it also raises questions about quality, safety, and physician liability.

His biggest hesitation?

Trust—both in technology and the people providing care under his name.

Listen to his perspective on the burnout driving many doctors to telemedicine and why, for him, the trade-offs aren’t worth it (yet).

Three Actionable Takeaways:

Prioritize Patient Safety: Virtual care has its place, but certain conditions require an in-person evaluation. Always consider what could be missed without a physical exam.
Vet Your Collaborators: If you’re supervising other providers, know them personally. Trust is crucial when your license is on the line.
Consider Your Long-Term Goals: Burnout drives many physicians toward telemedicine, but ensure any career pivot aligns with what you value most in patient care.

Épisode 3

mardi 25 février 2025 • Durée 25:16

Telemedicine is booming, but navigating regulations and compliance can be overwhelming. That’s where Phoebe Gutierrez comes in. A former state healthcare regulator turned startup strategist, Phoebe helps physicians and companies build sustainable, compliant telemedicine businesses.

In this episode, she shares how her experience as a state regulator gave her a front-row seat to healthcare policy in action.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

Know What You Don’t Know – Many telehealth companies overlook compliance, assuming it’s just legal paperwork. Physicians should ask the right questions before signing contracts to protect themselves.
