"But good writing doesn’t have to imagine everyone. It only has to imagine the truest thing about all of us, that exists in each of us." Choking up, thanks to @tressiemcphd nytimes.com/2026/08/27/opini…

Reducing the number of #uninsured was supposed to decrease emergency room crowding. But as the uninsured rate fell to historic lows, emergency room use has repeatedly surged. More insurance coverage seems to correlate with higher #ED volumes.

We're in the midst of a Category 5 AI backlash that will likely slow the progress of frontier models. Fine – the frontier can wait. But given healthcare's problems with quality, safety, access, & cost, thoughtful adoption there can't. My latest Substack: robertwachter.substack.com/p…

In @WIRED, @StevenLevy dives into the "Will we need MDs?" debate, fueled by the recent @ZekeEmanuel @VinodKhosla @nealkhosla & @AbeBakerButler @JAMA_current article. I'm quoted, and Zeke describes how his interest in AI vs. MD came from reading my book. wired.com/story/ai-has-human…

AI Has Human Doctors Asking: What’s Left for Us?

Value -based payment, which is supposed to reduce healthcare costs, is instead fueling it. New research found $3 billion in increased costs each year at hospitals in mandatory VBP models--mainly new administrative staff.

My latest Substack: the irony of @ChatGPT Health's launch (it's awfully good) coming the same week as the first big lawsuit alleging a serious misdiagnosis caused by AI (in this case, GPT-4o). What does it all mean for the future of patient-facing AI? robertwachter.substack.com/p…

This is a big deal because HOPD imaging is a MAJOR margin driver for most health systems (and also why they spend massive money getting the newest, flashiest imaging equipment)

The reason it's governors and AGs is because Democratic governors in KY and PA signed on when their GOP AGs would not. So technically it's 23 states + 2 governors (they can't take legal action in the name of their state).

New survey: Among people with job-based insurance, 39% cited affordability challenges. This is by far the largest number of people facing healthcare affordability challenges and they are generally ignored by media and advocates because no one paid to advocate for them.
