Are Physicians Ethically Obligated To Disclose Caselogs | Ethically Sourced E4 The Black Doctors Podcast

This week I discuss an article entitled, "Disclosure of Individual Surgeon's Performance Rates During Informed Consent." This topic was discussed on Twitter and I decided to read more. The article presented a very comprehensive look at the issue and discussed the pros and cons of implementation. Overall, the data collection is generally poor quality and difficult to compare across different facilities. It is also difficult to present this data to patients with the appropriate context. Obviously, however, Physicians should be open and honest about their abilities as this allows patients to make autonomous, informed decisions. What do you think Physicians are ethically obligated to disclose regarding their caselogs? What do you typically disclose in your practice?We hope that generating discussions on Clinical Medical Ethics and Culturally Competent Care will have a positive impact on the lives of disenfranchised patients.
