Many of our optometric colleagues recently received a letter from a 3rd party payer notifying that the level of E&M codes billed was higher than that of our peers. Aaron and John Rumpakis discuss what to make of the letter, the importance of understanding the language of billing & coding, and how not to let anyone intimidate us into "down coding" the high level of quality care we provide our patients.

In this monologue, Chris discusses the role of dopamine in reward and pleasure and how it relates to the actions we take in our practices. He explores the subconscious actions that occur from dopamine release and the impact it has on our perception of value. Chris compares the financial rewards of providing routine services, such as selling glasses and contact lenses, to providing medical services. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the time delay in receiving payment for medical services and how it can affect our dopamine release. Ultimately, Chris encourages practitioners to focus on providing comprehensive care for their patients without being swayed by financial rewards.

Dr. Chris Wolfe discusses the impact of private equity on patient care and the evolving healthcare landscape. It highlights the trend of physicians leaving private practice and opting for employment with larger health systems or corporate entities. The declining reimbursement rates and rising costs pose challenges for optometrists, leading to the need for strategic thinking and adaptability. The influence of private equity raises concerns about the standardization of care and the loss of autonomy for practitioners. The conversation emphasizes the importance of telling the story of independent optometry and the need to provide personalized, patient-centered care.

Werner Gellermann, PhD joins to discuss the opportunities and challenges measuring carotenoids in human skin and retinal tissue. Visit this YouTube link to see powerpoint slides Dr Gellermann shares during the discussion.
Dr. Gellermann is the CIEO of Longevity Link Corporation and co- founder of the LifeMeter technology (https://www.lifemeter.com/) . His research background is in the field of Solid State Physics and laser spectroscopy. Initially he developed ionic crystals for novel, wavelength-tunable continuous-wave and femtosecond laser operation in the near-infrared spectral region. In the mid 90’s, he and his research group switched to the field of Biomedical Optics, applying their experience with lasers and spectroscopy techniques to the development and commercialization of novel non-invasive detection methods for carotenoid antioxidants and related compounds in living human tissue.
