Treating the Computer, Not the Patient

In this Kaiser Permanente "training video", the doctor makes a beeline for the computer and barely glances at the patient.

I can't belive this is a training video... I thought it was someone talking about the bad care that patients receive at Kaiser. The patient is obviously not getting the medication he needs and the doctor is paying more attention to the computer than to him. This reminds me very much of my last visit to Kaiser!

This is actually pretty funny but accurate.

pasted to EVERY Kaiserperminente video:

"Pending Approval" is because you don't want people to know the truth of you hiring murderers. BUT I KNOW. And tell EVERYONE I MEET OR SEE.

YOU ARE MURDERERS!!

"Pending Approval" all you want!!! You can run, but you CAN'T HIDE!!

DIane Skoch is a murderer. She attempted to hire a hit-man to kill her own sister. She hired a carpet cleaner to run me over, but he failed. I'm still here to expose her, AND YOU FOR EMPLOYING HER!!

MURDEROUS FUCKING FILTH!

Dr. Chu’s Manchurian Candidate Medical Care

Benjamin Chu MD is Kaiser Permanente’s "operator," who conditions doctors to control medical necessity decisions. Doctors play electronic solitaire in the exam room. When the “best practices” cards show the red Queen of Diamonds, doctors are conditioned not to order tests and treatment, making them the perfect assassins. If doctors refuse to obey, they are liquidated. Dr, Chu denied care to 55,000 kidney failure patients

This is not a KAISER VIDEO!

Epic is the very best of the electronic medical record systems, and it's still a pile of crap. All of these systems take the doctor's eyes and mind off the patient and onto the pixels. It may solve some problems, but computerized medicine causes far more. These systems were designed initially to document all billable actions so that charges could be maximized. Now they are requred by doctors in order to comply with multiple national guidelines formulated by the EMR industry's lobbyists.

I am a pediatrician at Kaiser, and I NEVER use the computer while I am in the exam room.

I review the patient's record before I enter the exam room, and I devote my attention to the patient in the room.

I work for Kaiser Permanente - trust me, it's a training video, and this youtube posting is a great example of taking something out of context. It shows a bad doctor on purpose. Everybody relax!
