#48: Unveiling the Dark Side of the Healthcare Hierarchy
Show Notes

In this thought-provoking episode of the Coleman Associates Innovation podcast, we delve into a viral tweet that shook the cardiology physician community to its core. The tweet in question featured an advanced practice nurse performing a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedure in the UK, triggering a wave of outrage.

The incident is a powerful example of how entrenched traditional hierarchies in medicine can obstruct access to high-quality care for patients in need. These rigid structures sometimes limit the exploration of alternative options that could effectively expand healthcare services, ultimately depriving patients of vital treatments.

Join us as we discuss the importance of empowering all qualified healthcare practitioners to work collaboratively and to the full extent of their capabilities, fostering a more inclusive and efficient healthcare system.
