Seen & Unseen
Dr. Rich Rutledge, Chief Medical Officer, forces telehealth expansion at his large multispecialty clinic. Not with patient welfare in mind, but to line his own pockets. Desperate, he’s plagued by two problems – resistant doctors and wretched numbers. Rutledge must overcome both to throw open his profit pipeline. If not, he can always harass and bully his way to success. Considering the reward, he’s willing to take the risks.
Urgent Care doctor Hope Nichols values seeing patients in person. She worries diagnoses will be missed without the benefit of physical exam, and balks at aggressive expansion of telehealth at the clinic. Her fears are realized when patients arrive, showing signs of serious conditions overlooked during virtual visits. As Hope pushes to restrict telemedicine and investigate outcomes, her mission expands. With a surprising ally, she uncovers a far-reaching scheme marrying high tech to big medicine and big government, reeking of conspiracy.
Warnings transform into threats aimed at Hope and her son. Time is running out. With an expanding target on her back, she must decide—forge ahead, risks and all, or abandon the fight?

A great medical mystery
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and look forward to devouring more books by this great author. I even learned some new medical terminology, which may come in handy someday.
