About this listen

 This episode of the Prioritizing Equity series will delve into the critical issue of ageism in medicine, examining how age-related biases affect physicians and the quality of care they provide. We'll explore why hospitals and regulatory policies should shift from focusing on a physician's age to evaluate their care quality data and performance metrics. Guests will discuss the impacts of ageism, personal experiences, and the policy changes needed to ensure that all physicians, regardless of age, can continue to contribute meaningfully and that senior patients receive equitable care. Panelists Jenny L. Boyer, MD, PhD, JD, Chair-Elect, Senior Physicians Section Governing Council, American Medical Association Ramona Rhodes, MD, Associate Professor, Department of Internal Medicine, Geriatrics and Hospice, and Palliative Care, UT Southwestern Medical Center Ved Gossain, MD, Shwartz Professor of Medicine Chief, Division of Endocrinology, Michigan State University Moderator William Jordan, MD, MPH, Senior Director of Equity Policy and Transformation, Center for Health Equity, American Medical Association
