In this episode, Dr. James Bruffey, Orthopedic Surgeon and Spine Care Service Line Medical Director, with Scripps Health in San Diego, California discusses collaboration, process improvement, and commitment to cost effective care.  Dr. Bruffey was integral in creating a formulary plan that included physician feedback, supplier input, and top-down health system support.  Dr. Bruffey is a leader that believes physicians need to collaborate on value analysis and commit to the design and implementation of improved processes.  I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
