The Heart of Innovation with Kym McNicholas Kym McNicholas

Renowned Vascular Surgeon Dr. Krishna Jain talks to hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips about the increased insurance delays and denials for patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), a disease more prevalent and deadlier than most cancers combined. Patients with PAD, blocked arteries in mainly their legs, are suffering as vascular specialists are facing delays and denials from insurance companies upon their request to improve the quality of life for their patients by restoring blood flow using minimally invasive tools and techniques. This is leading to unconscionable suffering by patients who struggle with pain and cramping in their legs, some with wounds that won't heal on their feet. Dr. Jain explains that patients need to understand that Medicare Advantage Plans are not Medicare and they need to understand the benefits and drawbacks, especially if they have PAD.
