  • Episode #77: The Impact of 340B Drug Pricing on Patient Care | Lisa Mathew & Brittany Panico | Summit Rheumatology
    May 13 2025
    Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Dr. Brittany Panico, a rheumatologist in Colorado Springs who recently wrote an op-ed calling for reforms to the 340B program to require more transparency and reporting on how 340B discounts are passed on to patients. The 340B Program is a federal drug pricing program that allows certain hospitals and clinics to buy medications at steep discounts to support medication access for underserved patients, with the expectation that these savings would be passed on to patients. But critics argue that the program's growth has led to unintended consequences, such as market consolidation. And some studies suggest that 340B discounts may not translate into increased care or lower costs for vulnerable populations. Join Dr. Mathew and Dr. Panico as they discuss Dr. Panico's experience as an employed physician in a 340B hospital system and as an independent physician, and how the lack of oversight in the program may be making it harder for specialists to deliver the best patient care.

  • Episode #75: Insights into the First Cloud-Based AI Endoscopy System | Lisa Mathew, Gary Trendel & Ruhy Patel | Olympus
    Apr 15 2025
    Dr. Lisa Mathew interviews Gary Trendel, vice president of Endoscopy Solutions Ecosystem and Dr. Ruhy Patel, Medical and Scientific Affairs lead for the Endoscopy Solutions Ecosystem and Digital Units at Olympus. Odin Medical, an Olympus company, recently received 510K clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the first cloud-based Artificial Intelligence technology designed to assist gastroenterologists in detecting colorectal polyps during colonoscopy procedures. The CADDIE, or computer-aided detection (CADe) device, works by analyzing colonoscopy video in real-time and using visual markers to alert the endoscopist to the potential presence of polyps. A prospective, multi-center randomized controlled trial successfully demonstrated the efficacy and safety of the CADDIE device, underscoring its potential to enhance detection capabilities and patient care without increasing procedural risks or duration. Join Dr. Mathew, Mr. Trendel, and Dr. Patel as they discuss the potential for AI in improving patient care, and what independent GI physicians should understand about AI platforms that assist in detecting polyps during colonoscopy.

  • Episode #72: How to Improve Compliance with Elemental Diets | Michael Weinstein & Ali Rezaie | mBIOTA Labs
    Feb 25 2025
    Dr. Michael Weinstein interviews Dr. Ali Rezaie, a GI physician-scientist who specializes in microbiome research and gastrointestinal motility disorders. His recent study, which won an award at ACG, showed that a new elemental diet from mBIOTA Labs can significantly improve patient compliance. The study assessed mBIOTA Elemental, a palatable elemental diet designed to address the barriers of poor taste and low adherence associated with traditional elemental diets. Participants using mBIOTA Elemental had complete compliance throughout the two-week therapy, a critical outcome when managing gastrointestinal disorders such as Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and other complex GI conditions. Join Dr. Weinstein and Dr. Rezai as they explore how new innovations in elemental diets can help support patients with specific GI conditions and needs.
