Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP361: Telemedicine in 2026: Why Physicians Need to Think Beyond the License
Q: How does a doctor know what is a good telemedicine company versus a bad one?
Look for red flags such as promises of full-state async care when not vetted for regulatory compliance, lack of meaningful leadership or patient-centric processes, and proprietary platforms that might limit control or oversight. Ask detailed questions about how diagnoses are collected, how labs are handled, and what oversight exists to protect patient safety.
EP 348: Stop Overpaying the IRS: Tax Strategies Every Physician Entrepreneur Should Know
Q: How should physicians think about reasonable salary and audits?
The salary should be defensible and well-documented to withstand IRS scrutiny; there is no universal definition of reasonableness, and you must justify compensation with the time and non-medical tasks you perform within the business.
EP 348: Stop Overpaying the IRS: Tax Strategies Every Physician Entrepreneur Should Know
Q: How does tax strategy shift as a practice grows from solo to multiple employees?
Early on, practitioners can be more aggressive with mixed expenses and personal deductions; as the team grows, retirement plans, payroll, and governance require tighter controls, with a shift towards more structured entity choices and protecting tax efficiency for future exits.
EP 348: Stop Overpaying the IRS: Tax Strategies Every Physician Entrepreneur Should Know
Q: What is the biggest disconnect between how CPAs talk about taxes and how operators experience them?
The gap is that CPAs often speak in abstract terms about taxes as a cost of doing business, while operators see taxes as unexpected penalties and require proactive planning and clearer communication to understand how financial statements translate into tax liabilities.
EP340 : Get Cash-Pay Clients: How Upfront Labs and Smart Marketing Can Scale Your Health Practice
Q: What is the core formula Joy uses to frame marketing for health practitioners?
Symptoms plus science equals sales; start with patient-focused symptom language, then explain the science behind it, and finally present a simple, affordable way to work with you such as a lab test, which leads into a paid interpretation or program.
