Every professional organization in medicine should denounce the involvement of private equity in healthcare. They should send a clear message to their young physician members that PE is bad for hospitals, private practices, and patients. They won’t do it, but they should.

Josh McDaniels is the definition of addition by subtraction. Him not being in Las Vegas today was worth like three touchdowns.

I just put up a video about pharmacy DIR fees. Like most physicians, I had no idea this was a thing. PBMs are innovating greed. Please watch. 30 Days of US Healthcare: DIR Fees youtu.be/I61wCVh0Y1E

TOTAL US physician compensation is roughly 220 billion, ~8% of US healthcare expenditure. 1 (ONE) PBM had a profit of 125 billion in 2022. Can we stop saying that physician (somebody that actually contributes value to patient care) compensation is the problem?

Replying to @DGlaucomflecken
On peer to peers it’s always a fun strategy to ask for the peers NPI number and say you will be putting it in the chart that they denied the claim and caused a delay in care. Never seen a denial after doing that. #protips.

Lee Mazurek had been on medication to keep his chronic disease at bay for nine years when a @Cigna employee flagged his case for review. The company estimated it could save $98,000+ if he switched parts of his treatment plan. Then came the denial. 🧵👇👇

I hear so many awful stories about insurance denials for inflammatory bowel disease. Do they just not believe these diseases exist or what? @AnthemBCBS @UHC @Cigna @Aetna can I send you guys a Wikipedia article or something?

My baby's cancer may have returned and my insurance, @Cigna, is refusing to help cover a PET scan so we can find out if it has, and if needed, continue our work to save his life. No qualms about putting my child's life on the line for their bottom line. He is not even 2 years old

Today at the final of the World Cup, I only hope the players on the field and the whole world remembers that there’s a man and fellow footballer called Amir Nasr, on death row, only for speaking in favor of Women’s rights.

The Tigers should break out an alternate jersey based on Thomas Magnum's shirt at least once per year. I’m going to keep saying this until someone listens.
