What If the AANA Disappeared? Inside the CEO’s Role with Bill Bruce 37:26

منذ 6 أيام37:26

37:26

In this candid and wide-ranging episode, we sit down with Bill Bruce — CEO of the AANA, representing over 65,000 CRNAs and SRNAs nationwide — to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to lead the profession’s largest and most influential organization. From balancing the competing demands of members, boards, and limited resources, to navigating constant political, clinical, and industry noise, Bill explains how the CEO’s role is equal parts strategist, mediator, and pressure point. We explore how the AANA sets priorities, allocates resources, and adapts to both internal ambitions and external threats — and why the organization’s absence would have an almost immediate impact on CRNAs across the country. Bill also shares his perspective on maintaining focus in an environment of relentless change, the leadership qualities that matter most in high-stakes healthcare advocacy, and how the AANA is positioning the profession for the future. Whether you’re a CRNA, SRNA, or simply curious about the forces shaping nurse anesthesia, this conversation offers a rare inside look at the operational, strategic, and political realities of leading at the top.

Inside Anesthesia: What (Really) Broke the Anesthesia Market 46:08

46:08

In this bold and revealing episode, we sit down with Randy Moore — former military CRNA, past CEO of the AANA, and now a top executive at one of the country’s largest anesthesia organizations — to explore how the anesthesia market unraveled, and why no one stopped it. From workforce blind spots to failed strategic planning, Randy walks us through the early warning signs that went unheeded, the flawed assumptions that fueled collapse, and the slow-motion crises that turned into full-blown disruption. We break down the shift from hospital dominance to ASC migration, the chilling effects of the No Surprises Act, and how private equity’s playbook fell apart. But we don’t stop at systems. Randy also gets personal — reflecting on the cost of unchecked ambition, the value of thoughtful leadership, and the non-negotiables he now looks for in partners and teams. Whether you lead a group, manage hospital operations, or just want to understand the business forces reshaping anesthesia, this conversation pulls no punches — and offers rare clarity from someone who’s led on every side of the table.

Summary The conversation discusses three main changes proposed by the Leadership Identification Committee (LIC) for the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology: increasing the number of directors from seven to nine, increasing the term for directors from two years to three years, and changing the progression of the president to a three-year term. The rationale behind these changes is to decrease turnover, increase the number of eligible people for executive positions, and provide more support to region directors. The conversation also addresses concerns about the time commitment for directors and the potential impact on decision-making, cost, and the role of the professional staff. The conversation explores the proposal to increase the number of directors on the board, extend the terms of the vice president and president-elect, and create continuity in executive leadership roles. The main themes discussed include the benefits of having more directors to support state leaders, the financial feasibility of the proposal, the potential risks of electing the wrong person into an important position, the need for continuity and experience in executive roles, and the importance of informed voting.

Summary The conversation discusses the topic of rural pass-through and its impact on the anesthesiologist shortage. It explores the idea of including physician anesthesiologists in rural pass-through and whether it would be an effective solution. The conversation also delves into the concept of shortage and how it can be addressed by utilizing anesthesia providers to their maximum potential. The importance of deregulation and allowing local experts to make decisions about anesthesia models is emphasized. The conversation concludes with a discussion on title misappropriation and the need for transparency in using the terms 'physician anesthesiologist' and 'nurse anesthesiologist'. Keywords rural pass-through, anesthesiologist shortage, physician anesthesiologists, CRNAs, shortage solution, utilization of anesthesia providers, deregulation, local decision-making, title misappropriation, transparency Takeaways Including physician anesthesiologists in rural pass-through may not have a significant impact on the anesthesiologist shortage.

Summary The conversation discusses the topic of out-of-hospital cesarean sections and the potential risks and implications. Dr. Matt Mazurek, a physician anesthesiologist and assistant professor of anesthesiology at Yale School of Medicine, provides insights and raises concerns about the definition of low-risk cesarean deliveries, the dangers of complications during and after the procedure, and the lack of resources and training in outpatient settings. The conversation also touches on the financial incentives and potential cherry-picking of patients by private equity-owned medical facilities. The need for increased access to obstetrical care and support for OBs in rural areas is highlighted as a more effective solution to address maternal morbidity and mortality rates. Keywords out-of-hospital cesarean sections, risks, complications, low-risk deliveries, resources, training, financial incentives, private equity, access to care, maternal morbidity, maternal mortality Takeaways Defining low-risk cesarean deliveries is challenging and depends on various factors. Complications during and after cesarean sections can be life-threatening, especially in outpatient settings. The financial incentives of performing cesarean sections may lead to an increase in unnecessary procedures. Investing in more OBs and supporting them financially is crucial to improve access to obstetrical care in rural areas and reduce maternal morbidity and mortality rates. Key Quotes "OB is still very dangerous, both in the OR and postoperatively" "It's much more common and more likely to happen in this particular group. So do we really want to gamble with people's lives in this setting?" "It has happened and it's happened to younger, healthier patients out of the blue."

Summary In this conversation, Joe Rodriguez interviews Michael McKinnon, podcast founder, CRNA, and assistant program director at National University. They discuss two topics: the supervision clarification advisory opinion from the Arizona Board of Nursing and the opt-out of Medicare Part A physician supervision requirements in Massachusetts. McKinnon shares his perspective on these issues and emphasizes the importance of removing barriers to competition and promoting a level playing field in healthcare. Keywords CRNA, supervision clarification, advisory opinion, Arizona Board of Nursing, AA, opt-out, Medicare Part A, physician supervision, Massachusetts Takeaways Removing barriers to competition and promoting a level playing field in healthcare is important. The supervision clarification advisor opinion from the Arizona Board of Nursing allows CRNAs to supervise other health professionals. The opt-out of Medicare Part A physician supervision requirements in Massachusetts eliminates the perception of supervision and reduces liability concerns for CRNAs. The opt-out also simplifies contract negotiations and promotes collaboration between CRNAs and surgeons. CRNAs should have the opportunity to choose the model of care that best suits their practice and the needs of their patients. More states should consider opting out of Medicare Part A physician supervision requirements to improve access to care and increase provider options.

Dr. Joe Rodriguez testifies against title protection bill in Wisconsin 19:24

منذ 2 years19:24

In an attempt to control the freedom of what other professions call themselves and limit titles in Wisconsin, the medical society introduced SB 143. On May 24, Wisconsin Association of Nurse Anesthetists President Jenna Palzkill—as well as Dr. Joe Rodriguez, who was representing the AANA—helped inform and educate the Wisconsin Senate Committee on Health on why proposed SB 143 does NOT help Wisconsinites. If passed, this bill would preclude the use of the title Nurse Anesthesiologist in the state. An attempt of one competitor trying to control another. This is the audio of that testimony that ended this attempt.

Medical Malpractice Policies: What you didn't know, but should 1:20:34

منذ 2 years1:20:34

1:20:34

Meet Julie Nycum, CPCU, RPLU, ARM, the current director of AANA Insurance Services, providing medical malpractice to CRNAs across the country through Medical Protective (med pro). Julie worked for Medical Protective (med pro), a Berkshire Hathaway Company writing 2 billion in policies a year for 24 years as Vice President of Underwriting. In 2006 she met with AANA insurance services on behalf of med pro to develop the medical malpractice services AANA uses today. On this podcast we talk about: Occurrence vs Claims made and how important it is to know the difference related to YOUR risk and why over time claims made is MORE expensive Buying claims made "tail" isn't as simple as it sounds. Or as good. Time does not start until discovery starts. Might be past your claims-made policy and then YOU are on the hook. Consent to Settle & Hammer Clauses (Scary Stuff) You can be named (and need coverage) for NON-Anesthesia issues Policies may cover a lot more than you are aware of like lost wages etc. What does "1 million per occurrence and 3 million aggregate" coverage mean? Why 1/3 mil vs 250/500K per claim/aggregates are different in different states? Should you get a 1/3 policy anyway? What happens if a claim went OVER the max/occurrence (1 million) policy? You pay that is what happens. Why does Admitted vs Non-Admitted matter? The Oceanus Story Does AM Best matter to providers or facilities? How the size of an insurance company impacts the lawyers you get access to If you own an anesthesia company should you have special insurance for your contractors for vicarious liability? If you are covered by a groups policy should you also have your own to protect your interest? Does a settlement result in you being reported to the national practitioner databank? Is there any increased cost for med mal for an independent CRNA to the CRNA? Is there extra cost for the facility or surgeon working with an independent CRNA? Is there decreased cost for the CRNA or facility when working in an Anesthesia Care Team with a physician anesthesiologist? "liability shield" If you do ketamine clinics, medical aesthetics, IV infusion work does your CRNA medical malpractice cover these things? Medical Malpractice rates have not increased for CRNAs at Med Pro for 14 years. Now they are increasing, why and what does that mean? When do you have to report to the med mal company? Can you self-trigger coverage by hearing something might happen or when an event occurs? Can claims made do this? Whats the process and length of time of a claim? Addendum: If you are threatened with a claim (lawsuit) you should report that to medpro in writing ASAP. Send us a text Follow us at: Instagram Facebook Twitter/X…
