Building Systems for Better Pediatric Primary Care

Fifteen minutes. That's about all the time most pediatricians have to care for an entire child and family. In that brief visit, they are expected to address preventive care, developmental concerns, chronic conditions, behavioral health, documentation, and countless questions from parents, all while building meaningful relationships. It's a lot to ask of both clinicians and the healthcare system. What if the answer isn't working faster, but working differently? Today, we're talking about how pediatric practices can build systems that support better coordinated, family-centered care while creating more sustainable and fulfilling careers for clinicians. Joining us for this important discussion is Tricia Ramos, MD. She is a general pediatrician visiting all the way from Quezon City in the Philippines. Some highlights from this episode include: How to balance family's needs and pediatricians' priorities in a short visit Biggest pain points in today's pediatric practices Systems and workflows that have made a meaningful difference in improving care High-impact changes smaller or independent clinics can implement For more information on Children's Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org.
