Med-IQ helps you make better care possible. With a healthcare education team that brings expertise in clinical medicine, risk management, quality improvement, legal and regulatory matters, and patient engagement, we incorporate a broad and unified perspective into our solutions—eliminating siloed, inconsistent learning. We collaborate with our partners to identify needs, understand goals, and develop learning strategies that drive improvement where it will make the most difference—whether in a specific area or throughout the entire system.

Host Geri Amori speaks with Dr. Marisha Burden, Dr. Luci K. Leykum, and Gina Symczak about ways to address and potentially reduce what has come to be known as “administrative harm.”

Our latest episode explores:
- How taking time to analyze and identify the appropriate person to perform a task can reduce administrative harm

- How patient stories may lead to helpful modifications in administrative decisions

- The need to gather and analyze data surrounding administrative decisions to gain information to predict and mitigate harm

- The importance of including frontline clinicians when administrative decisions are being considered to incorporate all perspectives

: Clinicians can find themselves balancing rights, consent, and duty of care when law enforcement officers (LEOs) request blood alcohol testing.

Although the Fourth Amendment protects individuals from unreasonable searches, state implied consent laws mean that, simply by operating a vehicle on a public road, a driver automatically agrees to take a chemical test (like a blood, breath, or urine test) if an LEO has probable cause to believe they were driving under the influence.

In addition, in 2019, the Supreme Court ruled that warrantless blood draws may be permissible in exigent circumstances. Notably, legality hinges on the context of the situation, not solely on the patient’s ability to consent.

Ethically informed collaboration safeguards patients and protects your institution. Best practices for clinicians include:
▪️Establishing clear, discoverable policies and procedures
▪️Considering LEO-trained staff for evidence collection
▪️Documenting all LEO interactions in the medical record
▪️Knowing your state and local laws
▪️Including legal, ethics, and risk management teams

This week’s explores the impact of fear on health.

Approximately 13% of immigrants in the US report that their chronic conditions are worsening due to avoiding healthcare out of fear of immigration enforcement, and nearly one-third have experienced stress, anxiety, or sleep disturbances linked to these fears.

Healthcare avoidance impacts outcomes. No-show rates among immigrants are on the rise, and many no longer perceive clinics as “safe spaces.”

Protecting immigrant patients starts with policy and training. Healthcare teams can make a difference by:

◾ Marking private vs public areas, verifying warrants carefully, and designating trained staff.

◾ Educating teams on HIPAA’s protections for immigration status.

◾ Offering telehealth to reduce fear-related barriers.

◾ Documenting enforcement interactions and reassuring patients about privacy.

Our on-demand webinar, Law Enforcement and Healthcare: Ethics, Evidence, and Patient Rights, explores ethical and legal challenges that arise when law enforcement officers are present in patient care and features commentary from a defense attorney and an ethicist. https://lnkd.in/eT3DuyjJ
