Clinical Corners

With today’s ever evolving standards of care and focus on proper utilization, it is imperative that clinicians have access to the most up to date and relevant clinical information.  Clinical Corners are brief commentary on hot topics such as clinical information on chronic diseases. With this, our second quarterly update, we include our most recent released Clinical Corners topics as well as future topics. Keeping the provider informed yet being respectful of time and work/life balance is a major juggling act. Thus, twice a month, a Clinical Corner is released and hosted on the 1^st and 15^th on our McLaren Physician Partners website at www.mclarenpp.org.

• April 1^st – Appropriate Treatment of Adult URI Chronic Kidney Disease
• April 15^th – Chronic Kidney Disease
• May 1^st – New Treatment Option for CHF
• May 15^th – Major Depressive Disorder
• June 1^st – Appropriate Advanced Imagine in Emergency Department
• June 15^th – DPP4 Inhibitors vs GLP-1 Agonists

  Upcoming July 2021 Releases:

• July 1^st – Quality Performance Opportunities
• July 15^th – Vitamin D Deficiency

  Future Topics:

• CAHPS Survey- cost of medications
• RAAS Inhibitors (ACE-I and ARB)
• Morbid Obesity
• Meningococcal Serogroup B Vaccination

The focus of the Clinical Corners is to raise awareness on topics that are important to your practice, to foster discussion on subjects that matter and to inform physicians/providers on issues of importance.

Our specialists have stepped up as subject matter experts on a variety of clinical material.
