118: The Role of Technology in Improving Patient Care with Dr. Geeta Nayyar - a podcast by Dr. Donnica Moore

Dr. Geeta Nayyar is a rheumatologist, an assistant professor at Florida International University, a nationally recognized leader in healthcare information technology, an Executive Medical Director for Salesforce, and an author. If that wasn’t enough, she has also been named one of the “Top 26 Smartest People in Health IT” by Becker’s Report, ranked one of the “Top 25 Minority Healthcare Executives” by Modern Health care, and is recognized by the Med City News as one of the “Top 12 Powerful Women Voices in Healthcare Innovation and on Twitter.”

 

Geeta and Donnica talk about what people can do to actually prevent coronavirus, and they discuss false information and “cures” that are being talked about. While there isn’t a magic pill you can take for the virus, there are a ton of basic things you can do to be safer. They debunk other myths that have been circulating about coronavirus.

 

They talk about issues in the healthcare system. Often doctors are not allowed to step in until it’s too late. Rather than being able to help patients with preventative issues, doctors have to wait until something bad has already happen. Dr. Donnica asks the simple question “What would you do if you could give $30 to all of your patients?”
