A Mere Mortal
Dr. Steven Schlozman wasn't terribly surprised when an insurance company rejected his request to prescribe a new treatment for a patient. And, as usual, he expected to spend personal time sitting on hold waiting to appeal the decision. But what startled him was the conversation that took place when he finally got through to a live human being. In this podcast, Schlozman—a 1994 graduate of the Brown-Dartmouth Program in Medicine—recounts what happened in this "rare and truly honest moment."
This is a web extra to an article that appeared in the Spring 2009 issue of Dartmouth Medicine Magazine. To read the article, go to:
