    In fact, there is no evidence that patients who rate their doctors highly have better health outcomes, and in fact, this one data point shows that patients who rate doctors more highly are more likely to take prescription meds, more likely to show up in the emergency room, and more likely to die even when controlling for severity of illness. What patient rating satisfaction probably does a pretty good job with is, "How was the parking and how was the wait time?" But there's no evidence that it improves patient outcomes. And this is really significant because professional advancement in many institutions is directly tied to patient rating satisfaction surveys.

And then I would just say, finally, you know, I do a lot of work related to maternal mortality in our country. Black women are three to four times more likely to die of pregnancy-related complications than their White counterparts. And so, I wrote a bill to address every clinical and non-clinical driver of this maternal mortality disparity that we have. It's called the Momnibus. It's 12 bills all packaged together in one.

    When safety is breached through a violation of the state’s prac- tice act, regulators protect the public by stopping or limiting the practice of unsafe practitioners (Russell, 2012). A landmark report, To Err is Human, by the Institute of Medicine (IOM, 1999), revealed that as many as 98,000 people die in hospitals from preventable medical errors each year. Despite more than 15 years since the IOM report brought pa- tient safety to the forefront, recent evidence suggests that med- ical errors remain a major public concern (de Vries, Ramrattan, Smorenburg, Gouma, Boermeester, 2008; James, 2013).
