@CanesDavid Definitely a step in the right direction. I wonder what % of patients would actually consent to this if given the opportunity. I feel like I know a number of people who wouldn’t trust AI with their chart.

This is kind of a big deal
OpenEvidence@EvidenceOpen

Until now, physicians using AI in clinic had to assemble the patient’s context themselves. Allergies, comorbidities, medications, prior procedures, copy-pasted in from the chart. Today we’re announcing a partnership with @CedarsSinai. OpenEvidence now works directly inside Epic, drawing on the patient’s full record and interpreting the medical literature through the lens of that specific patient. Cedars-Sinai is the first academic health system to deploy patient-aware clinical intelligence at enterprise scale. The clinician asks a complex question in natural language. The answer reflects both the best available evidence and the patient in front of them. Patient data is never stored after the clinical session or used for any other purpose.

In patients undergoing permanent colostomy for #RectalCancer, use of a funnel-shaped intra-abdominal mesh reduced parastomal hernia incidence and size at 3 years without increased complications compared with no mesh. ja.ma/4eGxikD

When I was an MA, it often felt like as much time was spent appealing denials as actually caring for patients. It was common for patients to endure weeks of unnecessary anxiety before meds were approved. We should not need to rely on samples to bridge the gap. We need change.

This is a stunning new statistic from @IQVIA_global: 70% of new prescriptions are initially rejected by private insurers. Many of those prescriptions are eventually approved, but it can take up to a year, and about one-quarter are still ultimately denied.

The incredible team at @ClevelandClinic, including ASTS member @moeltemamy, have performed the world's first robotic-assisted transvaginal ipsilateral dual kidney transplant! “I hope families know how meaningful and generous organ donation truly is," says recipient Janet Yee. 💙 my.clevelandclinic.org/patient-storie…

Had an extraordinary experience at the @ACOSurgeons Medical Student Spring Conference in New York—presenting research, connecting with peers, and gaining hands-on clinical skills under the guidance of leaders like Dr. Valerie Sheridan (@Yoreksmom)
