American Medicine Today: Heart Health, Spinal Treatments, and Healthcare Politics

Practically, they are turning medicine to the cavernous time.
Ever wondered how medical innovations can shape our lives? This episode of 'American Medicine Today' brings together hosts Kimberly Bermel Bonati, Ethan Youker, and Jeff Wagstaff to dive into some groundbreaking topics. Dr. Alfred Bonati, the renowned inventor of the Bonati spine procedures, joins the conversation to emphasize the crucial need for proper diagnosis and treatment of spinal cord issues.
His insights shed light on how these treatments can drastically improve quality of life for those suffering from pain and numbness. But that's not all. The episode also introduces a new facility in Clearwater, Florida, offering free heart scans to the public. Two radiologists discuss the life-saving potential of these scans in detecting heart disease early on, a leading cause of death in the United States. As if that wasn’t enough, the hosts tackle the controversial topic of step therapy.
They explore how insurance companies often interfere with medical advances, turning what should be straightforward treatments into bureaucratic nightmares. Dr. Bonati doesn't hold back in his critique of the American Medical Association, pointing out how its profit-driven code system is failing patients. The episode wraps up with a powerful message from Dr. Bonati, urging the healthcare industry to refocus on patient care and medical advancements rather than profits.
If you're keen to understand more about the intersection of healthcare, politics, and cutting-edge science, this episode is a must-listen.
