Addressing Gaps in COPD Management: Insights for Pulmonary and Primary Care

Host: Nathan Falk, MD, MBA, FAAFP Guest: Megan Conroy, MD, MA(Ed), FCCP Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often experience significant delays in diagnosis and treatment due to systemic gaps in management. A recent survey of 400 primary care and pulmonary clinicians uncovered patterns of fragmented care among both specialties. Join Dr. Nate Falk and Dr. Megan Conroy as they dive into the findings and explain how CHEST’s COPD Toolkit can help clinicians address these gaps and provide a coordinated approach to COPD management. Dr. Falk is a board-certified family physician as well as a Professor and Founding Residency Director for Family Medicine at Florida State University in partnership with BayCare Health System. Dr. Conroy is a Chair and Assistant Professor in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine at The Ohio State University.
