Hospitalized women are less likely to die or be readmitted to the hospital if they are treated by female doctors, a study published Monday in the Annals of Internal Medicine found. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-care/women-are-less-likely-die-treated-female-doctors-study-suggests-rcna148254 so are we calling this politics? i don't really know the rules anymore. --- Naz Reid ...

Curiously, I'd like to know what the female mods think of your question, versus the male ones.

I suspect that is because women doctors are probably better and more attentive than their male counterparts. It would be interesting to see if men treated by women doctors also have similar statistical boost.

I have seen enough women complain that their doctors told them it is probably just period pain or pregnancy that I am not surprised.

It's almost always "anxiety" or "your cycle" lol. Doctors just don't want to do work to figure things out. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I was going to expand on why this doesn't surprise me, but the article pretty much says everything I would, so I guess I'm just saying this doesn't surprise me and leaving it at that.

For male hospitalized patients, the gender of the doctor didnt appear to have an effect on risk of death or hospital readmission. It's a one-off line, but they looked at that as well. --- This is my signature. It exists to keep people from skipping the last line of my posts. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I was going to say that gap is small, but 5,000 lives a year is something.
But yeah, it seems male doctors not being in tune with female patient needs as well. --- PotD's resident Film Expert. ... Copied to Clipboard!

curious why the study didn't include people under 65 to give some broader results, but this sounds about right.

I'd guess that's mostly because they used Medicare data (at least, I'm assuming "all patients were covered by Medicare" isn't a coincidence) and therefore didn't have any information on patients under 65. It also wouldn't surprise me if it's hard to find a statistically significant number of people under 65 dying within 30 days of being released from the hospital, but that's just conjecture. --- This is my signature.
