    Private Equity-Owned Retinal Practices Perform Fewer Retinal Detachment Procedures

    Private equity firms are increasingly prioritizing profits over patient care in ophthalmology practices they acquire. These firms are directing clinicians to reduce or eliminate unprofitable but emergent procedures, such as emergency surgery for retinal detachment, which often results in a financial loss for the practice. Consequently, private equity-owned retinal practices perform approximately 20% fewer of these critical surgeries compared to other practices, potentially endangering patient vision. AI

    CandorMD: An AI-Assisted Audio Simulation and Feedback System for Training Clinicians for Medical Error Disclosure

    Researchers have developed CandorMD, an AI-powered system designed to help clinicians practice and improve their skills in disclosing medical errors to patients. The system offers real-time practice and tailored feedback, addressing limitations in current training methods like lectures and static videos. Insights from interviews with medical professionals and patient advocates informed the design of CandorMD, aiming to enhance clinician confidence and ultimately improve patient care and trust. AI

    IMPACT Enhances medical communication training by providing AI-driven practice and feedback for sensitive disclosure conversations.
