Episode 15: Optimal Team Practice
Manage episode 437968342 series 3593068
In this episode, we explore the concept of Optimal Team Practice (OTP) and its potential implications for healthcare delivery. OTP is a framework that advocates for a more collaborative approach within healthcare teams, focusing on increasing the autonomy of physician assistants (PAs) while maintaining strong interprofessional relationships. We'll discuss the core principles of OTP, the varying perspectives on its implementation, and the possible benefits and challenges it presents.

*A quick correction- When Christine talks about physician/patient ratios, the ratios are HIGH, not low. She meant a low number of physicians per patient population. She'll figure it out eventually.
