Keith Stokes+FollowDentists: Is Selling Actually Ethical?Ever thought of 'selling' in healthcare as a bad thing? Turns out, it might be the opposite! On The Authentic Dentist podcast, Dr. Allison House and Shawn Zajas spill why dental pros actually have a moral duty to communicate (aka 'sell') treatment options. It’s not about pushing products—it’s about making sure patients know what’s possible for their health, even if they don’t realize it yet. Wildest part? Sometimes charging more makes patients value the treatment more!

Jason Weaver+FollowOB-GYNs Told: Stop Ignoring Pain!Big news for anyone dreading their next gyno visit: OB-GYNs are finally being told to offer more pain relief options for procedures like IUD insertions and biopsies. The new guidelines say doctors should actually talk to patients about pain management—think lidocaine, NSAIDs, and more—so you don’t have to just grit your teeth and bear it. It’s about time doctors listened to what women need and let us choose what works best for our bodies! #WomensHealth #PainManagement #GynoCare #PatientFirst #HealthcareNews #Health5312Share
Douglas Robinson+FollowHow Palliative Care Pays Off (Literally)Turns out, palliative care isn’t just the right thing for patients—it can actually pay for itself! Only a handful of states cover community-based palliative care under Medicaid, but places like YoloCares in California proved that investing in these programs leads to more patients transitioning to hospice (which covers costs). Grants and managed care contracts help too, but it’s all about focusing on quality care first. More states are jumping on board, so watch this space! #PalliativeCare #Medicaid #HealthcareInnovation #HospiceCare #PatientFirst #Health10Share
