The Huge Problem in Home Health Wound Care
Are your wound care partners really helping your patients, or just billing Medicare?
In this episode, Mariam Treystman sits down with Dr. Robert Goldberg to expose the common pitfalls in home health wound care. From misdiagnosed pressure injuries to costly staging errors, learn how to protect your agency and improve outcomes with the right strategies.
📌 You’ll hear:
• Dr. Goldberg’s journey from surgeon to home-based wound expert
• Why some wound care providers make things worse—not better
• The truth about pressure wound staging and billing risks
• How real patient education and proper care lead to healing
Best Practices for Pressure Wound Staging in Home Health: Explained By a Wound Care Specialist
Are your clinicians staging pressure injuries correctly—or setting your agency up for preventable complications and denials?
This podcast by THCC breaks down pressure-injury staging in plain English for home health, with guidance from Mariam Treystman and Dr. Robert Goldberg. It explains the most common staging misconceptions, why they’re risky for patient outcomes and compliance, and the simple cues that help teams stage accurately and document cleanly.
📌 You’ll learn:
• Why correct staging affects interventions, infection risk, hospitalizations, and survey outcomes
• The key rule: tissue layers ≠ staging (and why that mix-up drives under-staging)
• Stage 1–4 quick visual definitions (intact redness → partial-thickness → fat → muscle/fascia/bone)
• The anchor that prevents errors: “Muscle = Stage 4”
• Why coding/billing structure can mislead teams—and how to avoid billing pitfalls

What makes us different?
Wound care led by a cardiothoracic surgeon—built around the patient, not the spreadsheet.
Dr. Robert Goldberg is a formally trained cardiothoracic surgeon who chose to devote his practice to advanced wound care. His approach is both clinical and human: he treats the wound with precision, while educating home health teams, nurses, patients, and families so everyone understands the plan and can support healing between visits. Dr. Goldberg views a wound as a symptom—not the whole diagnosis. The goal isn’t just closure; it’s identifying and addressing the “why” behind the wound (circulation, pressure, infection risk, nutrition, mobility, and underlying disease), so healing lasts.

Yes! Dr. Goldberg is fluent in English & Russian.
Born and raised in Russia, Dr. Goldberg completed 5 years of medical school at the Russian State Medical University in Moscow and was building his career as a Cardiac Surgeon. However, in 2008 he immigrated to the United States and had to redo his entire education from scratch, earning his medical degree from Cooper Medical School of Rowan University in 2016. He was then trained in adult and congenital Cardiothoracic Surgery for four years at LAC + USC Medical Center.
Attributing his success to perseverance and having always been inspired by the medical field, Dr. Goldberg served as a congenital cardiothoracic surgery research fellow at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles until December 2019. In 2020, he left Cardiothoracic Surgery to pursue a different career path. Thereafter, from 2020 until 2022, he worked as a traveling physician for Signify Health. He started his wound care practice later in 2022.
