Alejandro Badia, M.D., F.A.C.S. has been in the trenches with our broken healthcare system since 1989.

Alejandro Badia, M.D., F.A.C.S. is a hand and upper extremity orthopedic surgeon at Badia Hand to Shoulder Center in Miami Florida. Dr. Badia previously served as Chief of Hand Surgery at Baptist Hospital of Miami. He studied physiology at Cornell University and obtained his medical degree at New York University, where he also trained in orthopedics. A hand fellowship at Alleghany General Hospital in Pittsburgh was followed by an AO trauma fellowship in Freiburg, Germany. He runs an active international hand fellowship and previously organized a yearly Miami meeting for surgeons/therapists that was devoted to upper limb arthroscopy and arthroplasty. In 2005, Dr. Badia co-founded the world-renowned Miami Anatomical Research Center (M.A.R.C.), one of the world’s largest surgical cadaveric training lab.

In 2008, he completed the Badia Hand to Shoulder Center, a fully integrated clinical facility for the upper limb also encompassing the Surgery Center at Doral, rehabilitation and an MRI imaging facility. More recently, Dr. Badia inaugurated OrthoNOW®, the first immediate orthopedic care center in South Florida. OrthoNOW® officially went to market in April, 2020 and is actively engaging strategic healthcare investors and interested clinicians, here and abroad to open orthopedic walk-in facilities.

THE U.S. HEALTHCARE SYSTEM IS IN CRISIS

Americans are facing serious problems – skyrocketing healthcare costs, a lack of patient access, and inefficient delivery. Now with the frightening COVID-19 pandemic that is further taxing our healthcare system – and our economy – these issues are amplified. Despite all the political debates and media coverage on healthcare policy and reform, there is always one glaring omission: feedback from the people in the trenches – the doctors and other healthcare professionals who provide care to the patients.

Medicine, once a noble calling, as evidenced by The Hippocratic Oath, has transformed into an oppressive, burdensome system for both doctors and patients.

THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH MATTER AND PEOPLE ARE DYING BECAUSE OF A FLAWED SYSTEM

THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH MATTER AND PEOPLE ARE DYING BECAUSE OF A FLAWED SYSTEM

Non-Medical Experts hired by the Insurance Companies with zero medical training, and without any degrees or knowledge (in most cases) are calling the shots and continue to interfere with the doctor-patient relationship, delay and prevent the delivery of care, and present an obstacle to innovations that would improve patient outcomes and reduce overall healthcare costs.

Since the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, healthcare in America has devolved into a bureaucratic nightmare. What began as incremental interference in the relationship between doctor and patient with the passage of The Medicare Act of 1965 is now an impenetrable barrier made up of governmental and healthcare insurance industry red tape. The result? Higher costs and unnecessary inefficiencies.
