finally consistent about remembering to tell complicated patients : “there r many specialists following w/ large teams. You may hear conflicting info but we r all talking behind the scenes. If u have ???s I am the go-to person”. it works so well to prevent frustration.

I wish there was a way to put student debt into another category in the eyes of lenders, particularly because of PSLF potential. I get why that would be complicated. When you hear physicians having everything in order to responsibly purchase a home, but they get stonewalled because of their medical school debt, that is very frustrating.

The work that @marishaburden and @KenistonAngela are doing to define/measure hospitalist work and conceptualize workload is so important — for the field and for patients. #SHMConverge23 …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jh…

Glad to see North Carolina signing Medicaid Expansion into law today after being passed by their Republican-majority legislature. We must do the same to #CoverAlabama and put people’s lives and health over politics. 80% of states have expanded - let’s not wait to be the last!

Ran into @blairgolden presenting awesome work at #SHMConverge23. Putting chairs 🪑 in the patients’ rooms resulted in ⬆️ patient-reported resident communication behaviors - including spending enough time at the bedside. Simple and elegant intervention. Just. Sit. Down. 🪑

Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files. “We literally click & submit,” a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. “It takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.” The inside story 🧵

It only took us countless hours over several weeks, but a nascent middle range theory is starting to take shape! #MedEd @DrDanSchumacher

@ABsteward Getting an inpatient PET scan is damn near impossible. Probably some significant confounders associated w it

"Quite extraordinarily, receipt of a PET scan was associated with a 13.1%-27.8% reduction in all-cause mortality. If true, this would represent the single most effective intervention against mortality in S. aureus bacteremia since the invention of antibiotics." #IDTwitter
