I now got a chance to listen carefully to this @_backtableUro episode
1. this is a must listen for anyone even remotely interested in understanding the financial forces of modern medicine
2. @RuchikaTalwarMD is a real pro and the House of Urology should be extremely proud she is representing us on this larger stage
3. @mcuban’s drive and early success in taming the seemingly untamable are extremely refreshing.
Underpaid, paid late, then clawed back: Mark Cuban (@mcuban) runs through the payer problems every physician knows too well.
He tells urologic oncologist Dr. Ruchika Talwar (@RuchikaTalwarMD) why his direct contracts start by trusting the doctor in exchange for a better rate, how cutting denials and peer-to-peers gets practices paid faster, and why he posts every contract publicly as a free template.

Weight, appetite, activity.
Dr. Jason Hafron (@HafronJason) tells Dr. Ruchika Talwar (@RuchikaTalwarMD) and Dr. Kristen Scarpato (@Scarps_kristen) he can ask all three in a few seconds, and that the honest answer often comes from the spouse rather than the patient. They discuss the bone pain, skeletal events and electrolyte abnormalities that need acting on quickly.

Thin-slice CT after ureteroscopy tells an uncomfortable story: a lot of stone gets left behind.
Dr. Ruchika Talwar (@RuchikaTalwarMD) opens with Dr. Karen Stern (@KSternAZ) on why the field is rethinking the operation, how fast the technology has moved since residency, and why success means something different for a patient who wants a perfectly clean CT than for one who wants a few years without a stone episode and no stent. They also retire the old dusting versus fragmenting camps in favor of an approach built around the patient.

Sooner or later the genomic report and the NCCN risk group point in opposite directions, and there is no guideline paragraph that tells you which one to follow.
Dr. Angela Jia (@angela_jia_) gives Dr. Ruchika Talwar (@RuchikaTalwarMD) her approach to both directions of discordance, working through a grade group 1 cancer with a convincing PI-RADS 5 lesion and a very high genomic score, and then a high-risk patient facing eighteen to twenty-four months of hormone therapy he does not want.

Happy studying!!!
Every registration trial reports quality of life, and they all look fine, which is exactly what makes choosing between them hard.
Dr. Jason Hafron (@HafronJason) tells Dr. Ruchika Talwar (@RuchikaTalwarMD) and Dr. Kristen Scarpato (@Scarps_kristen) why one head-to-head comparison is worth more than a stack of parallel single-arm data, pointing to a randomized study of cognitive outcomes. They discuss why trials like it are so rarely funded.
