Some of our healthcare systems are hard, and challenging, and I think that it’s time that we have a change. I think there’s maybe a little bit of debate as to when those turn from being just normal age related changes to then being something more, but it happens in many different areas of healthcare. Eric: Lovely.

We would make referrals to psycho oncology. I would make referrals to Joe as well as part of the team. But that did not limit those clinicians from making referrals, as Vicky was just saying. But we do have the information about referrals to other ancillary providers as part of that multidisciplinary team. So it matters.

So I get all the referrals from my great colleagues in primary care. We’ve had difficulty in recruiting and engaging in those communities, and that’s on our end. It’s not on the community’s end. So it matters a lot to the person, to their family, to the community. We save healthcare.

And now when I think about the clinic at Duke, when we’re really running on all cylinders, we can get ourselves up to a five, six, seven week wait for a new palliative care referral. And the entire community of palliative care said yes, not a palliative care study. We won’t kill your patient. I’m so sorry.

And I think that it was percolating in a lot of the palliative care community. And how are you going to know that when you’re just getting random referrals from teaching hospitals, for example?
