    The Vascular Voice - Inside the Editorial "A Call for Pay"

    Jacob Soucy (@JacobWSoucy) hosts an inside look at a timely and thought-provoking editorial published in The Vascular Specialist, the official news magazine of the Society for Vascular Surgery.   In this episode, we explore the evolving conversation around surgical call and compensation through the lens of the editorial "A Call for Call Pay." The discussion challenges the traditional framing of call as simply part of the job and instead examines it as a measurable burden of availability that carries legal, financial, and personal implications. This conversation highlights why the valuation of call may represent one of the defining structural issues in modern vascular surgery practice.   Jacob speaks with Dr. Malachi G. Sheahan III about the motivation behind the piece, how hospital systems value call, what the true cost of call coverage is, and what the future may hold if the current model remains unchanged.   Show Guest Dr. Malachi G. Sheahan III is Professor and Chair of Surgery at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center and Chief of the Division of Vascular Surgery. He previously served as Program Director for both the fellowship and integrated residency in vascular surgery at LSU. Nationally, Dr. Sheahan serves as Secretary of the Society for Vascular Surgery and as Chief Medical Editor of The Vascular Specialist. With more than two decades in academic surgery, he is a recognized leader in vascular education, workforce policy, and advocacy within the specialty.   Resources and Social Media X (Twitter): @lsuvascular   Read the editorial: "A Call for Call Pay" – The Vascular Specialist   Special thanks to Dr. Malachi G. Sheahan III for sharing his time and insight and for his ongoing contributions to vascular surgery.   Follow us @audiblebleeding for updates on upcoming episodes and new research features.

    SVS QI Consulting Program

    In this episode, we explore the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) Quality Improvement (QI) Consulting Program, a free member benefit that supports vascular surgeons in designing, executing, and refining QI projects across all stages—from problem identification to dissemination. We're joined by Dr. Samantha Minc, a vascular surgeon and faculty member at Duke University, and Dr. Ashley Vavra, an Associate Professor of Surgery at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine and chair of the SVS Quality Improvement Committee. Both bring extensive experience in vascular care and quality-focused clinical practice. Together, they break down how the QI Consulting Program helps clinicians: Develop SMART goals and clear project aims Identify stakeholders and select appropriate methodologies Organize timelines and communication plans Track process measures and assess intervention impact Troubleshoot challenges and prepare presentation or publication materials They also outline what the program does not provide—such as data analysis, formal instruction, or long-term mentorship—to help members understand its intended scope. The application process is straightforward: SVS members may apply during the first two weeks of each month, with up to five projects accepted per cycle. This episode stresses the value of QI in vascular surgery and offers a practical, accessible overview of how the QI Consulting Program can support meaningful improvement efforts in vascular practices.
