Excellent and timely writeup. From predatory Medicare Advantage programs to unscrupulous hospitals feigning struggle while storing excess profits in banks and executive salaries, all while patients and taxpayers bear the cost of this excessive greed. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Trying to start my patient on buprenorphine… CVS just required me to CANCEL their abilify (long-standing home med) because of a medication “interaction” in order to dispense the buprenorphine… @cvspharmacy I hope you know this doesn’t make any sense who do I complain to! 🤯

Just realized there is a 155-page Budget Narrative Template Guide for the SAMHSA #harmreduction grant. If you are feeling particularly depressed and beaten down by this process, you're not alone. We are too. 🧵
