You have to love the AMA for putting out this story. The title is How a chief wellness officer can assess existing programs, find gaps. It makes you want to vomit. Remember, the AMA agreed to EVERYTHING the government and insurance companies piled onto doctors. They helped burn us out and now they put out articles like this showing how much they care.
Let’s take a look. Does a Direct Primary Care doctor need:
Amid a culture that is contributing to physician burnout and a loss of a sense of joy in medicine, a chief wellness officer (CWO) can help an organization systematically improve the well-being of physicians and other health professionals.
No.
Or how about this:
Meet with other leaders
The best way to understand what is being done, what has been tried and what areas make sense for future well-being efforts is to meet with other leaders within the organization. Those leaders include the:
– Chief quality officer.
– Chief medical officer.
– Chief experience officer.
– Chief medical information officer.
– Chief diversity officer and other diversity and inclusion leaders.
– Chief human resources officer.
– Chief operations officer and any other key members of the operational leadership team.
You know what they say, you can NEVER have enough chiefs.
Feel free to read the whole piece but please do so on an empty stomach.
These idiots have no clue how to make physicians well because the system is broken. And the AMA helped break it. The only way to solve this Kobayashi Maru is to hack the system. Remove the government. Remove insurance companies. GIVE DOCTORS BACK TIME IN THEIR LIVES AND THEY GET WELL.
Direct Primary Care does all of this.
