Show Notes

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by the fear-driven legal landscape of medicine, this conversation will change the way you think about liability and the future of patient safety.

In this episode, Dr. Pensa sits down with trailblazer Richard Boothman, JD, a pioneer in patient safety and transparency, to discuss how the traditional "deny and defend" approach has failed both doctors and patients. We discuss the "Michigan Model," how it came to be, how it works, and how new CMS and ACGME changes may make it our new normal. 

Stick around to the end, because Rick's got a story about this model in action that rivals any closing arguments.
