But I am the choke point.

Like as a doctor,

I I'm the only one that can do these tasks because they're clinical enough that it needs me to do it, but not like really what I went to medical school to do.

And there's a lot of stuff that sits in this bucket of it needs my oversight, but it doesn't need like my highest clinical aptitude and it's the least enjoyable bit of the job.

Like no one wants to, you know, call up and wait on hold to talk to the cardiology registrar and have like a kind of grizzly.

conversation trying to get them to see for them to see your patient.

Um and it's like I already, if Heidi was there or like I had some partner in care who like knew what happened in the initial ward round, it's very easy for that system to draft a summary of the case and just share it with the registrar.

But but without that system, the current standard today is that doctor has to do it.

So the doctor has to make the call.

But that's job 200 in the list.

So when does that

Get done.

And then that person probably doesn't get seen by cardiology for two days because they refer late in the day and then the cardiologist is already busy.

So basically, like if you think about a healthcare system, the choke point is a doctor's time and attention.

And anything that takes that up has direct impact on patient outcomes because it slows down bed movement, reduces the speed to different interventions happening.

And you actually constantly

Constantly triaging your own time.

So you end up only seeing the sickest patients.

And basically, patients have to get sick enough for you to pay attention to them.

And anyone who's low acuity basically just sits in the hospital, sort of rotting, waiting for something to happen.
