MSQC’s Program Director Michael Englesbe is this week’s guest on the Behind The Knife podcast.
Learn about the origin story of both MSQC and Michigan OPEN, along with Mike’s own journey from middle school careers day to transplant surgeon.
The conversation covers a wide range of topics including the data behind the Michigan OPEN prescribing recommendations, managing patient expectations around surgical pain, Pain Control Optimization Pathway, Modifier 22, MSQC’s work to standardize care pathways, and a deep dive into a couple of real life post-op prescribing scenarios.
Plus, what he listens to in the OR and the current book on his nightstand.
