  How to Fix Primary Care: Pay for Outcomes, Not Appointments

  Mar 12, 202617 minS1

  <p>Primary care feels broken: rushed appointments, long waits, endless forms, and a printout you can’t read. But what if the real problem isn’t your doctor… It's how we pay for care? </p> <p>In this episode of Curbside Health Cast, Dr. Brady Steineck explains physician compensation and why fee-for-service healthcare turns primary care into a visit factory.

  Patients Don’t Want “The Portal” They Want a Human

  Jan 7, 202619 minS1

  <p>Have you ever called a medical office with something that felt urgent… and got treated like an inconvenience? </p> <p>In today’s episode, we talk about why modern healthcare can feel cold, why patients hear a quiet “no” through portal messages, policies, and rushed triage, and how good clinicians get trained into emotional distance without even realizing it. This is not a rant about bad people. It’s a breakdown of a healthcare system that rewards speed, punishes humanity, and turns real care into compliance, documentation, and workflows. </p> <p>If you’re a physician, nurse practitioner, PA, nurse, medical...
