ID CARE<br />
Dr. Ronald Nahass, president<br />
Q: What is ID Care’s main role?<br />
A: Our more than 50 physicians<br />
across <strong>New</strong> <strong>Jersey</strong> use their expertise<br />
to identify, evaluate, and effectively<br />
treat infectious diseases.<br />
Over the past two years, our focus<br />
has been on evaluating more than<br />
30,000 patients with COVID-19.<br />
We were integral to the success of<br />
was first identified by an ID Care<br />
physician.<br />
Q: How does ID Care help<br />
reduce the risk of healthcare,<br />
particularly in hospitals where<br />
infections can be acquired?<br />
A: We have taken a lead in understanding<br />
how to maintain great<br />
outcomes while limiting costs and<br />
improving patient experiences,<br />
helping to avoid hospital care for<br />
certain conditions that can effectively<br />
be treated elsewhere. We<br />
do this regularly at infusion suites<br />
in our offices, where patients who<br />
previously would have been hospitalized<br />
can now receive outpatient<br />
treatment.<br />
participating in Zoom calls. When<br />
he saw his smile on the screen in<br />
front of him and realized that’s<br />
what everyone else was seeing, he<br />
immediately understood the need<br />
to improve his smile. He simply<br />
couldn’t believe how old he looked<br />
online!<br />

many pandemic-related programs<br />
in hospitals and long-term care<br />
facilities, helping to save lives and<br />
reduce risk to staff.<br />
Q: In what other areas has ID<br />
Care played an important role?<br />
A: Since 1996, we have been on<br />
the frontline of identifying infectious<br />
diseases that are emerging,<br />
unique, or ongoing. I always<br />
talk about the infection du jour,<br />
including things like monkeypox,<br />
tick-borne diseases, and West Nile<br />
encephalitis. For decades, ID Care<br />
has been at the forefront of identifying<br />
these conditions, particularly<br />
when little is known about<br />
them. For example, the Powassan<br />
virus, which is carried by the same<br />
tick that transmits Lyme disease,<br />
Q: What are examples of that?<br />
A: Conditions like urinary tract<br />
infections, skin infections, and<br />
pneumonia can now be successfully<br />
treated at ten convenient<br />
ID Care locations* rather than at<br />
a hospital. This delivers patient<br />
satisfaction along with great<br />
outcomes, reduced risk, and lower<br />
costs.<br />

ESSEX DENTAL<br />
Dr. Paul Feldman, owner<br />
Q: How did you treat a patient<br />
who was interested in improving<br />
his smile?<br />
A: This patient’s teeth were<br />
discolored and chipped, with<br />
significant wear. He explained that<br />
he was never really very concerned<br />
with the cosmetics until he started<br />
Paul Feldman, DMD, FAGD, FICOI, PA<br />
Q: What techniques were used<br />
to achieve his goal?<br />
A: We did a computerized smile<br />
simulation that lets you see what<br />
any proposed changes will look<br />
like prior to us doing any dental<br />
treatment. After that, we bleached<br />
his upper teeth and placed veneers<br />
on his two front teeth. Thanks to<br />
the very latest technology we have<br />
in our office, the veneers were<br />
done digitally in a single visit. The<br />
next time he had a Zoom call, he<br />
said he looked ten years younger!<br />
