We address: Why is caring for patients with this overlap so hard? Sach Kale set up an outpatient clinic focused on substance use disorder for patients with cancer. Who follows the patient once the cancer goes into remission? What is making this hard for me? What is harm reduction and how can we implement it in practice?

Our experts include Katie Fitzgerald Jones (palliative nurse practitioner and doctoral student at Boston College), Zachary Sager (palliative care physician at the Boston VA and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute), and Janet Ho (physician at UCSF in addiction medicine and palliative care).

For many patients without health insurance, or even those with insurance, this can be a challenge. Many traditional clinics have a high turnover of doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants, so it is difficult to see the same doctor more than once. It is much easier (and cheaper!)

CDC received some 5,500 comments from patients, caregivers, clinicians and interested organizations to the proposed guideline update it issued in February. An important part of the 2022 Guideline includes CDC’s pronouncement that some laws, regulations and policies have misapplied the 2016 guidelines and likely contributed to patient harm.

As explained more fully below, CDC concedes that states, insurers, pharmacies and pharmacy benefit managers have implemented laws, regulations and policies that have misapplied the 2016 guideline. We believe the proposed 2022 guideline provides much needed clarification of CDC’s recommendations for both practitioners and regulators.

Eric 03:25 So we have a lot to talk about, but I’m wondering if we can kind of take a big step back and just talk about the patient population that’s in nursing homes. And yet it’s been so hard to integrate palliative care into nursing homes. And it’s, I think, a very uplifting song. No problem.

But one issue we’re not as good at discussing with our patients is sexual health. Clearly this issue is important to patients. How long they might have to live. Their declining cognitive abilities.

Don’t get me wrong, the evidence points to cost savings, but as Chris Callahan and Kathleen Unroe pointed out in a JAGS editorial in 2020 “in comprehensive dementia care models, savings may accrue to Medicare, but the expenses accrue to a fluid and unstable network of local service providers, patients, and their families.” Malaz: I love it.
