Leaders from RadEqual and the AAWR Sign MOU, Solidifying Commitment to Advance Opportunities in Radiology


News Image

Our new partnership with RadEqual will give us the profound chance to further inspire women within this community, and we’re proud to sponsor future activities that will be the catalyst for amplifying the next-generation of leaders.

Leaders from RadEqual, an organization that fosters networking and mentorship opportunities for leaders in radiology, informatics, and IT management, and the American Association for Women in Radiology (AAWR) today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the 2023 American College of Radiology’s annual meeting in Washington D.C. The two-year MOU will merge both parties into a formal agreement that will support increased collaboration and promote a shared pursuit of creating educational initiatives for the broader radiology community.

“It is part of the AAWR’s mission and purpose to create networking and mentorship opportunities for leaders in the radiology field,” said Dr. Amy Patel, President, AAWR. “Our new partnership with RadEqual will give us the profound chance to further inspire women within this community, and we’re proud to sponsor future activities that will be the catalyst for amplifying the next-generation of leaders.”

In August 2022, RadEqual launched a webinar series sponsored by Intelerad, and now the AAWR, on overcoming the mid-career stall. Webinar attendees have the opportunity to learn from some of the healthcare industry’s most renowned leaders. The educational series will continue through July this year, with the next session being hosted on May 17 by Dr. Nancy Spector, Senior Vice Dean for Faculty and Professor of Pediatrics at Drexel University College of Medicine, Executive Director of ELAM and ELH, and the Executive Director of the Lynn Yeakel Institute for Women’s Health and Leadership. Dr. Spector will focus on the topics of mentorship, sponsorship and networking strategies for success.

“Since its founding, RadEqual’s partners and supporters have been at the forefront of creating opportunities for and empowering leaders in the healthcare community,” said Dr. Geraldine McGinty, RadEqual co-founder and Professor of Clinical Radiology and Population Health Sciences, Weill Cornell Medicine. “For over four decades, the AAWR has driven

monumental change, and I am proud that today, we can now align our efforts and build a more promising future for leaders in radiology together.”

In November 2016, RadEqual was born when Dr. McGinty, along with other female leaders, noticed that they were often the only women in the room during events. Through networking and open dialogues, women shared similar experiences in the technology sector, where they are often underrepresented in executive leadership roles and corporate board seats. Today, RadEqual’s initiatives are supported by thought leaders in the healthcare industry, and the global RadEqual community, composed of women, men and nonbinary individuals, has grown to hundreds of individuals who are interested in increasing diversity within the various disciplines related to medical imaging. Intelerad is proud to sponsor the organization alongside the AAWR as it continues to grow and partner with other like-minded groups.

“Collaborating with RadEqual has expanded Intelerad’s mission to include supporting the female leaders in radiology who are the future of healthcare,” said Marissa Carlson, Chief Marketing Officer & Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Chair, Intelerad. “The newly solidified partnership between RadEqual and the AAWR signals the importance being placed on connecting women with mentors in their field, and we’re proud to help foster those opportunities.”

Ideal Option Releases Patient Outcomes Report for Montana to Show Effectiveness of Medication-Assisted Treatment for Fentanyl, Heroin, Methamphetamine and Cocaine


Ideal Option, a national leader in outpatient medication-assisted treatment for addiction to opioids and other substances, has released its 2022 Annual Patient Outcomes Report for patients living in Montana.

This report contains an aggregated view of patients’ geographic and demographic characteristics, their stage and duration of care, adherence to medication and their substance use over time based on lab specimens collected during 2022 from more than 1,700 patients.

The data support the effectiveness of treating addiction with FDA-approved medications combined with regular lab testing to verify medication adherence, create accountability and ensure patient safety.

Among Montana patients who remained in treatment from initiation to the maintenance stage of care during 2022, the report shows:

  • 93% less total opioid use
  • 97% less fentanyl use
  • 94% less heroin use
  • 87% less methamphetamine use
  • 84% less cocaine use

The report also reveals synthetic drug use continuing to rise among enrolling patients in 2022, particularly fentanyl. Fentanyl is regularly mixed with other illicit drugs to make them more addictive, often without the user knowing.

“Polysubstance use disorder is now the most common diagnosis at Ideal Option,” said Tim Kilgallon, CEO at Ideal Option. “In 2022, over half of all Montana patients tested positive for two or more substances at enrollment, and 24% tested positive for three or more substances.”

The data corroborate state reports of the increasingly prevalent role that fentanyl plays in the substance use epidemic. According to data released by the Montana Attorney General’s Office, fentanyl seizures in the state have risen 11,000% since 2019. In 2022, task force agents seized 206,955 dosage units, triple the amount recorded in 2021.

In addition, according to the most recent State Unintentional Drug Overdose Reporting System (SUDORS) summary for Montana, opioids and stimulants such as methamphetamine were the most common substances associated with a fatal overdose from 2019-2020. Ideal Option data show that standard treatment for opioid use disorder dramatically reduces the use of methamphetamine in patients who test positive for both.

View the full Ideal Option 2022 Annual Patient Outcomes Report for Montana here: [https://www.idealoption.com/patient-outcomes.

Ideal Option has helped more than 65,000 patients through a network of nearly 90 outpatient clinics across 11 states: Alaska, Arkansas, Idaho, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon and Washington.

With no waitlists and most forms of insurance accepted, including Medicare and Medicaid, patients can typically get started on treatment for fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine, alcohol, or other substances within 1-3 business days.

Patients can make an appointment by calling 1.877.522.1275 or visiting http://www.idealoption.com.

About Ideal Option 

Headquartered in Kennewick, Washington, Ideal Option was founded in 2012 and has since helped more than 65,000 patients through a network of nearly 90 office-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT) clinics across 11 states.

In all the communities it serves, Ideal Option collaborates with existing stakeholders and providers to improve the continuum of care.

Doctor Releases Book to Address the Common Sources of Physician Burnout


News Image

Dr Garbelli feels that by fostering a successful collaboration between empowered physicians and healthcare stakeholders, high quality and sustainable healthcare can be achieved.

According to the American Medical Association, physician burnout is an epidemic in the U.S. health care system, with nearly 63% of physicians reporting signs of burnout, such as emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, at least once per week.

In “The Doctor’s Voice,” author Dr. Pietro Emanuele Garbelli hopes to provide guidance and assistance to unveil and assist physicians struggling with burnout and overwhelmed by their workloads. It offers solutions to help them stay happy and healthy, while still practicing medicine at its most rewarding level.

Dr Garbelli feels that by fostering a successful collaboration between empowered physicians and healthcare stakeholders, high quality and sustainable healthcare can be achieved.

“Having personally experienced and observed amongst colleagues how daily frustrations lead to burnout and a desire to escape the medical profession,” said Dr. Garbelli, “I know how damaging and incapacitating this experience is for physicians.”

Dr. Garbelli is a specialist in Acute Internal Medicine, a clinical director, and a healthcare consultant. Having witnessed and experienced inefficiencies, frustrations, and struggles as a patient, a relative, and a provider, he uses the lessons learned as a powerful catalyst to provide medical thought leadership. Through years of professional coaching and personal development, Dr. Garbelli learned how problems that physicians encounter could be turned into opportunities for solutions that shape the future of healthcare.

“Retaining an invaluable medical workforce is just one of the benefits of tackling doctors’ frustrations,” said Dr. Garbelli. “Unleashing the potential of doctors’ skills and contributions beyond mere clinical duties can empower healthcare organizations, stakeholders and decision-makers with the data required to achieve their targets.”
