No Laughing Matter with Cuba Pete

Roseman University College of Medicine Founding Executive Deans

Episode Summary

In this episode of No Laughing Matter with Cuba Pete, he sits down with his team of Executive Deans to discuss the difficult questions medical schools and healthcare systems are struggling to answer. Ask yourself, is it fair that a medical school student can train by working with low-income patients at a public hospital and then upon graduating and becoming a licensed Physician decline to care for Medicaid patients? The team will discuss issues of student and Physician diversity (or the lack thereof), the ethics of caring for people and “trust” as a component of improving health in society. This group has some radical ideas for spurring change and they plan to make Roseman College of Medicine the center-piece of that change.
