SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT TO ARKANSAS TIMES MARCH 7, 2013 25

ABOUT BEST DOCTORS, INC.Founded in 1989 by Harvard Medical School physicians, Best Doctors works with the best fi ve percent of doctors, ranked by impartial peer review, to help people get the right diagnosis and right treatment. Gallup® has audited and certifi ed Best Doctors, Inc.’s database of physicians, and its companion Best Doctors in America® List as us-ing the highest industry standards survey methodology and processes.

The global health solutions company, which has grown to over 30 million members worldwide, uses state-of-the-art technology capabilities to deliver improved health outcomes while reducing costs. Best Doctors seamlessly integrates its trusted health services with large self-insured employers, insurers and other groups in every major region of the world. The company also designs and implements international insurance programs that help people be sure they get the right health solutions.

More than a traditional second opinion, Best Doctors delivers a comprehensive evaluation of a patient’s medical condition – providing value to both patients and treat-ing physicians. By utilizing Best Doctors, members have access to the brightest minds in medicine to ensure the right diagnosis and treatment plan. The service also helps patients learn about their best treatment options, and includes their treating physician in the process as well,

providing members the peace of mind and the confi dence that comes with knowing they are making well-informed decisions with world-renowned experts in their corner.

For over 20 years, Best Doctors has conducted an extensive physician survey to identify the doctors that other doctors trust most. It is the largest ongoing, peer-reviewed survey in the medical industry.

As a result, Best Doctors has a proprietary database of more than 53,000 medical experts worldwide in over 450 specialties and subspecialties. Best Doctors are:

• Reviewed and elected by their peers• Clinically and academically accomplished• Affi liated with national and global centers of

excellence, including Dana Farber, MD Anderson, Baylor, Memorial Sloan-Kettering, Johns Hopkins and other leaders.

• Leading medical practitioners, researchers and teachers

• Members of a prestigious, peer-reviewed group that includes the top 5% of U.S. physicians

To date, the experts have reviewed tens of thousands of cases, providing invaluable diagnostic and treatment recommendations. Best Doctors does not pay physicians to be included in the database, nor can physicians pay to be on the Best Doctors in America® List.

Best Doctors’ team of researchers conducts a biennial poll using the methodology that mimics the informal peer-to-peer process doctors themselves use to identify the right specialists for their patients. Using an accredited polling method and balloting software, they gather the insight and experience of tens of thousands of leading specialists all over the country, while confi rming their credentials and specifi c areas of expertise. On “off ” years, or non-polling years, Best Doctors re-verifi es The Best Doctors in America® List to ensure that all the informa-tion contained within remains up-to-date and accurate.

The result is a sterling, worldwide reputation for reliable, impartial results by remaining totally independent. The List is a product of validated peer review, in which doctors who excel in their specialties are selected by their peers in the profession.

and what you can do about it

why diagnoses go

WRONGA Q&A with Best Doctors’ Vice-Chairman, Evan Falchuk

Q: If someone asked you to explain in 20 seconds what Best Doctors does, how would you answer?

A: We are turning traditional notions of health care on their head. In today’s confusing maze of a health care system, we get people the right answers to their medical questions. We do this in lots of different

wrong, asking the right questions, and getting the right answers from the world’s best expert physicians. Today, we serve 30 million members around the world, and we believe that through our work we are on our way to changing health care forever.

Q: Can you give us an example of a case where Best Doctors corrected a diagnosis?

A: My favorite example is close to home — my own brother, Brad. He’s the co-creator of the TV show “Glee,” and before coming to Best Doctors, he was incorrectly diagnosed with a malignant tumor in his spinal cord. His doctors had scheduled him for radiation and surgery to get rid of the tumor, which is actually the right thing to do for that kind of condition. The trouble is, that wasn’t the condition he had.

So we reviewed all of his medical information and family medical history, and our doctors found a clue that ended up being lifesaving for him. It turned out we have a family history of a condition that could easily be confused for a malignant tumor. Best Doctors recommended some additional tests, which

treatment that was originally planned was in fact very dangerous, given his actual condition. Today, having received both the right diagnosis and right treatment from Best Doctors, he is doing great. What’s amazing about my brother’s case is that stories like his are more common than most of us think.

Our U.S. data from 2011 showed 29% of people had been misdiagnosed, while 60% required a change in treatment.

Q: The public is starting to hear more about how often people are misdiagnosed, and about getting second opinions. In this day and age, why is

A: Doctors today are the best educated and best trained than at any time in history. They have the best technology out there, and every year more and more treatments are available. So how can misdiagnoses still happen? The problem, we believe, is in how our health care system works. Doctors sometimes have to see 30 or more patients a day, and often can spend only 15 minutes or less with each one. What’s happening is that doctors and patients just don’t have the time together that they need to ask all the right questions, and make the best decisions. It’s why we believe that misdiagnosis is a public health problem that doesn’t get the attention it absolutely deserves.

Q: How long has Best Doctors been around? What was the genesis of the company?

A: Best Doctors has been doing this work for almost 25 years. My father is one of the founders. He is an internist and professor of medicine and saw the problem of quality in medicine from his work as a doctor. He knew that as a doctor and a teacher he could only reach so many people. His vision in creating Best Doctors was to reach millions more. It’s inspiring to be part of a team that is making this vision a reality.


WHAT CAN PEOPLE DO TO AVOID BEING

MISDIAGNOSED?1. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. You should never be a spectator in your own care. It’s your health, and your life.

2. Always get a second opinion and focus on sharing your symptoms, rather than the diagnosis you received from your initial treating doctor.

3. Take the time to get to know your family medical history – and make sure your doctor knows about it.

4. Take someone with you to your doctor’s visits to help listen, take notes, and ask questions.

5. If you’ve been diagnosed with a type of cancer, always have your pathology re-checked.

Best Doctors, Inc. (www.bestdoctors.com) is a global health company founded by Harvard Medical School professors in 1989. Around the world, Best Doctors provides people access to

right care and right treatment. For further information, call (800) 223-5003. Unsure if you have access to Best Doctors

Resources Department.

Q: What makes doctors the “Best?” How does Best Doctors choose its physicians?

A: We think the very best doctors are the ones who make good, thoughtful decisions. Now, one way to do this would be to watch every doctor practice, but obviously that’s not practical. So what we set out to do over two decades ago was ambitious and game-changing. We wanted to ask doctors all across the country, and across all of the many specialty areas of medicine who, in their experience, they thought were the best at what they do. It’s a little bit like what doctors do themselves when they look for doctors — they ask their peers for their honest perspective.

Today, we have assembled a respected database of nearly 50,000 doctors that represent the top 5% of doctors across 45 specialties and more than 400 subspecialties of medicine. It’s an incredibly powerful tool. And it’s completely independent. Doctors can never pay to get on our Best Doctors in America list, nor are they (or we) ever paid if they’re voted on to the list. The only way to be on the list is for their

in fact, a singular honor to be a Best Doctor.

Q: What would you give as the #1 reason why Best Doctors continues its efforts to improve health care?

A: The biggest reason why we come to work each day at Best Doctors is because we believe everyone should get the right care. While most people get the right care, far, far too many people still do not. There

know we don’t need to wait forthat — we can help people through our approach and physicians’ expertise today, and so we do.

Q: What can people do to avoid being misdiagnosed?

A: The best thing you can do is to ask questions. You should never be a spectator in your own care. Ask

why your doctor thinks your diagnosis is right. Find out what else could be causing your problems. Don’t be afraid to ask — it’s your health, and your life.

If you’re going to get surgery or you have a serious illness, always get a second opinion. Making sure you are comfortable that you understand what is happening and what is being planned for you is a really important way to avoid problems. Focus on telling your second-opinion doctor all of your

have.

Take the time to get to know your family medical history — and make sure your doctor knows about it.

close attention to details at the same time, so take someone with you to doctor’s visits to help listen, take notes, and ask questions.

If you’ve been diagnosed with a type of cancer, always have your pathology re-checked. If you had a biopsy and your diagnosis is based on your original pathology report, be sure to get it reviewed again.

We all have the power to make a real difference in our own care or that of a loved one.
