I was mid-fem-pop bypass, everything running smoothly. Flow established, team locked in, music playing off my phone to keep the room steady. Then the audio kept cutting out. Not once. Not twice. Over and over through the case.

When I finally glanced at the screen, it wasn’t a critical alert. It was a refill request that could have waited until afternoon clinic. A duplicate allergy warning I’d already cleared twice this week. A co‑pay notification I have no idea why I received. And buried underneath all that noise, a stat potassium on my next surgical patient — the one thing that actually mattered.

In my new today's episode of The Connected Practice, I trace where your alert system actually came from: a 2011 certification requirement that asked vendors to make an alert fire, not to make it fire at the right moment for the right person. That single choice is the ancestor of nearly every interruption in your day.

The exhaustion you feel isn't a discipline failing. It's traceable engineering. Which means it's fixable.

Soft launch is open now ahead of the full September release.
