Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Pelka discusses his top three priorities at the American College, along with potential solutions. First, reducing regulatory burdens on surgeons is a major focus, aiming to simplify documentation guidelines and lessen daily influences. The second priority is building an all-payer, all-physician alternative payment model controlled by physicians and defining episodes of care based on industry standards. Lastly, the focus is on creating a digital health system and interoperability, enabling different specialties, including surgery, to have web services for patient care. Dr. Pelka also shares advice on influencing policy and accessing decision makers. The video ends with appreciation for Dr. Pelka's presentation.
