Intro to Healthcare Discourse: Sample
2.3: Perspectives from a Deaf MD
Dr. Chris Moreland shares perspectives on how to interpret the questions and what is behind the thinking of a physician in asking the questions. As you approach this resource, think about what questions you raised in interpreting the HPI appointment the first time in Step 1 of this workshop. Were there specific questions you had a challenge interpreting? With that in mind, you can look forward to learning from the insight of Dr. Moreland.
A Brief Biography
Christopher Moreland, MD MPH, is a faculty internist and hospitalist at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. He graduated in 2005 from the University of Texas at Houston Medical School and completed Internal Medicine (IM) residency and academic general medicine fellowship at the University of California, Davis. Concurrent with his inpatient clinical duties, his teaching activities include working with medical, pharmacy, and nursing practitioner students in clinical and didactic roles, along with serving as co-director of the IM residents' general medicine consultation service. His academic interests include the medical education of health professionals and interpreters; health disparities affecting the deaf/hard of hearing and limited English proficient populations; and the effects of interpretation services and health professional diversity in reducing those disparities.
An Explanation of the Process
This is an opportunity for you to develop new insight into healthcare discourse by looking more closely at the questions that physicians ask. We asked Dr. Chris Moreland to look at the questions that were asking during this appointment and share his perspective for the benefit of interpreters. Here's how it happened.
We sent Dr. Moreland a link to the video as well as the transcript of the appointment - with the questions we wanted him to consider bolded. An excerpt is included below. Some of the questions have been combined in the editing process.
TRANSCRIPT of HPI
Dr.: Hi, Michelle. I'm Dr. Jorde.
It's nice to meet you.
Interpreter: And my name is Michelle. My last name is Stuart.
Dr: What brings you to the office today?
Int: I've been getting a headache. Um, I would say about two weeks now.
And it's been horrible. It's been…
Dr.: Have you ever had headaches in the past?

This way Dr. Moreland was able to see both the question and the context in which it was asked. He then went through and shared some video reflections on how to interpret the 18 most significant questions.
YOUR PROCESS
To maximize your benefit, don't simply go through and watch Dr. Moreland's video clips. Instead, follow this three step process. It won't take much more time, but following the steps can significant increase your learning.
- Read the question and interpret it into ASL. This will give you an opportunity to see if Dr. Moreland does something similar to what you chose. It may also show an area that is a challenge which might focus your attention in new ways when you watch the video.
- Watch Dr. Moreland's video. Pay attention to both how he signs the quesiton, but also his commentary on what a doctor is thinking in asking the question. Note that at times, he is unsure about the questions Dr. Jorde asks. (Like interpreting, medicine is a practice profession.)
- Interpret the quesition again. Incorporate any new insight you developed from watching the video.
