  • Discussion: Quality Improvement in Residency Programs

    12/10/2020 Duration: 29min

    This is a conversation moderated by Mark Graban, with Dr. Greg Jacobson (KaiNexus CEO) and Dr. Bahnsen Miller. From Greg's blog post about this discussion: I received an interesting call a few weeks back from Bahnsen Miller, MD. Bahnsen is an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Virginia Health System. He attended LSU School of Medicine and completed his residency training there. After residency training, he completed a quality improvement and patient safety fellowship at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge—this is where he learned about KaiNexus. Since then, Bahnsen has been working with residents and students on various quality improvement and patient safety initiatives. He asked me if I had ever thought of using KaiNexus to help train physicians during their medical school and/or residency periods. It brought back a flood of memories from how my “improvement story” began.
