Our guest this week is Alex Taira. Alex is the Regulatory Affairs and Research Manager at ASCA, and he's on to give us all an update on the impact of the FTC's latest ban on noncompete agreements. Since the ruling was announced, everyone has been trying to determine how this will impact surgery centers and the healthcare landscape as a whole, so Alex sheds some light on the basics of the ruling, how it applies to non-profit entities, and suggested next steps for ASCs.
In our news recap, we'll cover how the concept of pit crews could help achieve faster and safer OR turnover times, tips for attracting and hiring students fresh out of college, Uber's new offer called Uber Caregiver, and, of course, end the news segment with a positive story about how AI is helping triage patients in emergency rooms.
