Harnessing EHRs to Unlock the Cure for Type 1 Diabetes: A Candid Discussion with Experts

This episode, sponsored by Hippo Education, explores the potential role of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) in finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Hosts are joined by Chip Hart from PCC and Dr. Dan Feiten from Office Practicum, both leading experts in pediatric-focused EHRs. They discuss their personal connections to T1D and the importance of identifying potential cases early, even before DKA develops. The conversation delves into the impact of family history and the need for better communication and education among pediatric clinicians. The experts emphasize the importance of integrating care plans, population health management, and the role of technology in achieving better outcomes. The discussion also highlights the challenges in the current healthcare system, including billing, insurance, and the need for more proactive strategies in pediatric care.
