From ER to wallet: Understanding medical expenses

Join us as we welcome Neill Slater, an emergency physician, to discuss the critical issue of patient compliance and the hidden costs of health care. We will explore why patients often don't take their prescribed medications, the challenges physicians face when discussing treatment costs, and practical steps to bridge this communication gap. Neill will share insights on how medical education, routine practices, and systemic changes can improve patient outcomes and trust.

Neill Slater is an emergency physician.

He discusses the KevinMD article, "Talk to your patients about money."
