Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#58 - Are Health Insurance Companies Profiting by Denying Your Care? Bryan Khoo
Q: What reforms could improve the system?
Suggestions include reworking Medicare Advantage, imposing penalties on improper denials, standardizing medical-necessity criteria, and crowdsourcing an evidence-based standard for when interventions are necessary.
#58 - Are Health Insurance Companies Profiting by Denying Your Care? Bryan Khoo
Q: Why does health care cost so much in the U.S. and where is the money going?
The guest argues that money concentrates in large health systems and insurers due to administrative overhead, approvals bottlenecks, and vertical integration that keeps revenue within a closed ecosystem rather than going to physicians in private practice.
#53 - Are Robotics the Future of Joint Replacement? Prof. Fares Haddad
Q: What is your target in alignment in 2026, and does it differ per patient?
The target is six-DOF planning beyond simple coronal alignment, incorporating soft tissue considerations and patient-specific anatomy, with an emphasis on three‑dimensional alignment and individualized targets rather than a single universal approach.
#53 - Are Robotics the Future of Joint Replacement? Prof. Fares Haddad
Q: What are the biggest differences you now do in practice compared to 15 years ago?
Emphasis on three‑dimensional planning, CT-based robotics, consideration of spine influence on hip positioning, and a shift toward more partial knee replacements with precision and preservation of ligaments, alongside evolving cementless techniques.
#53 - Are Robotics the Future of Joint Replacement? Prof. Fares Haddad
Q: When you were training, what did you initially think your career would look like, and how did you end up where you are today?
He describes aiming for arthroplasty with a fellowship in Vancouver, then returning to the UK to balance arthroplasty with sports medicine, ultimately building a high-volume practice and integrating robotics and research into his career.
