    Good Intentions, Unintended Consequences - Good Intentions, Unintended Consequences The No Surprises Act backfired, while it successfully eliminated surprise patient bills, Practices and Systems now game the Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) process to get paid more than the original charges, sometimes double. The good news for patients, not so much as these costs are shifting to premiums, health plans are paying dramatically more, with claims over $1 million nearly doubling and industry arbitration win rates dropping below 10%. Hotspots of abuse exist, Nevada leads, and in Tennessee just 147 practices filed 36,000 disputes. Private equity-owned practices leading the way in turning arbitration into a business strategy. In an extension of the "No Surprises" we don't expect Congress to fix it. Medical facilities are often the largest employers in representatives' districts, creating a powerful conflict of interest. Solution include aggressive negotiation. Winning requires disciplined people-driven approaches during the 30-day negotiation window, identifying ineligible claims, and calling out bad actors.

  • Digital Health Talks: Before the Next Crisis On A Preventioneer's Framework

    Digital Health Talks: Before the Next Crisis On A Preventioneer's Framework
    Jul 2 2026
    Before the Next Crisis: A Preventioneer's Framework for AI, Trust, and Healthcare Leadership Healthcare leaders know the pattern. Warning signs appear. Evidence accumulates. Institutions hesitate. And by the time action is taken, the cost, human and financial, is already enormous. Right now, that pattern is playing out across AI deployment, eroding public trust, and simultaneously weakening fragile health systems. On this episode of Digital Health Talks, physician-scientist and biostatistician Dr. Barry R. Davis brings a framework health leaders can actually use. Drawing on decades leading landmark prevention trials and his new book The Preventioneers: Diseases, Disasters, and the Discoveries That Changed Our World (Johns Hopkins University Press, May 2026), Dr. Davis breaks down why evidence alone rarely drives action, what trust has to do with it, and what the leaders who successfully broke the cycle actually did differently. If you are responsible for AI governance, patient trust, or building a prevention-first culture inside your health system, this conversation is for you.
