Finally a real proposal on PBMs! Senator Elizabeth Warren's amendment would ban pharmacies from owning PBMs. Would be a break-up of CVS, Cigna, UnitedHealthGroup, and would end rancid conflicts of interest in the industry. 🔥🔥🔥 finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…

@jefielding @Hyatt Haha true but they also offer a lot in return.
Grand Hyatt Berlin is one of my favorite hotels in the world. Great location and amenities especially if you have club access, the morning breakfast buffet and afternoon snacks are amazing.

@durjoy Glad you like it! We are just getting started :)
It looks like Allways plan are now called Mass General Brigham. Insurance plans tend to change their name every couple years 🤷🏻♂️
English

@DocSChang Hey Simon- I like what you’re building! Super useful. It wasn’t able to find my Allways plan in the pull-down, but maybe they changed the name again?

@StuartBlitz We are building an end to end prescription support platform on eNavvi.com
Medication adherence is part of our next phase of features set as we plan to expand beyond clinicians to patients.

@DutchRojas @mass_marion This is the mission of @eNavvi!
My co-founders and I are physicians who are dedicating ourselves to make healthcare affordable and accessible starting with Rx!
English

The message of “how to make healthcare affordable and accessible” is not designed for the masses.
It’s designed for the 10-12% of the population that is both visionary and early adopters.
These are the people who will give up their time, invest their energy, and actually do the work.
Everyone is not the audience, they are the beneficiaries.

@HeatherLandi @jessdamassa @calibrate @omadahealth @TeladocHealth @wondrhealth Trying to make sense how virtual care can control pricey weight loss drugs
English

Employers are seeing surging demand for obesity care benefits, including pricey weight loss drugs. This opens up big market opportunities for virtual care players as employers look to control costs @calibrate @omadahealth @TeladocHealth @wondrhealth bit.ly/3WFfpHV

Reminds me of a July 4th mattress sale at Macy’s ad…but that’s probably bc they’re focusing $ on meds, not advertising.👏
This should be the standard in US healthcare.
Albuterol $15
Augmentin $10
Budesonide $16
Clopidogrel $5
Truvada $15
Estradiol cream $20
Imatinib $12
Linezolid $32
I check @costplusdrugs every time I prescribe now. Thank you, @mcuban, for doing what our government couldn’t.

@ColinGardiner We are building an online prescription marketplace where clinicians and patients can find Rx coverage/cost, covered alternatives with insurance and cash purchase options

@elonmusk @stclairashley I had no idea what insanity is until I went into medicine and now strongly believe psychiatric facilities are necessary.
English

Some individuals are a danger to themselves and society and it’s not fixable. Unfortunately, we do need to keep them in psychiatric facilities.
“Normal” people are sometimes afraid that perhaps they would be falsely committed to such an institution. They do not realize how far they are from true insanity.
English

What we are calling treatment is not helping the mental health crisis… I would argue that it’s making it worse.
I’d be interested to know how many of the mass shooters in the past decade were on psychiatric “medications”
But treating the root cause of the mental health crisis might impact America’s position on the global leader board so there’s no incentive to fix it.

When you’re a founder $ rewards aren’t a guarantee- but if you’re true to yourself, you get to build something that matters with people you care about.

We are seeing success at @eNavvi with patient engagement as we provide a shared decision tool for drug coverage and cost transparency.

"Patient engagement" to advance #healthequity is easy to say, but hard to do. I encourage folks to read this brief by @CHCShealth for accessible, practical guidance w/ examples about how to begin. Kudos to @NYHFoundation for their support of this NY Collaborative.
