Learn about current issues in healthcare that are impacting the quality of care received at the end of life. My guest Dr. Drew Remignanti is an emergency medicine physician who has lived with chronic illness since being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at the age of 19. He suffered a major stroke at the age of 38 that sidetracked his career for five years but inspired him to write the book The Healing Connection: A Partnership for Your Health, which explores how dollar-driven motives wield too much influence over our medical decisions, including at the end of life. To learn more about the book follow Dr. Remignanti on Facebook: Follow on Facebook Get the book here Watch on YouTube Listen here: This episode includes:  What happens when people show up at the ER without an advance directive Why the default emergency care is “do everything” What is “slow medicine” and how are current forces in the healthcare system working against it Why patients and providers need to work together to make the changes we need When people know and trust their physician they are far more likely to create an advance care plan for their health and follow it Studies show it takes only 40 seconds of compassion in a medical encounter to make a significant difference The “commoditization” of healthcare and the problems it causes The US has an 88% rate of healthcare illiteracy, meaning people do not know how to acquire or apply information about their health  Links mentioned in this episode:  Holding Space Consultant Training Blog: How Virtual Reality Transformed My Ordinary Reality Sign up for aNUma’s Clear Light Program here: https://anuma.com/trial Previous episode with Gregory Roufa and Lama Karma from aNUma: Episode389 Get EOLU Podcast Merch here Conversations on Death with ChatGPT – Audiobook here; Print Book here Leave me a message by email: kwyattmd@comcast.net, Twitter, Facebook or Instagram Support your local bookstore by buying my books on Bookshop and Indiebound: 7 Lessons for Living from the Dying and The Journey from Ego to Soul Subscribe to this podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Stitcher Radio Check out the Series I’ve recorded in the past here Join the team at Patreon.com/eolu and receive free gifts like the “Mind if we talk about death?” mini-poster or Love Your Life sticker or coffee mug.
