@ebtapper @HEP_Journal @sholzberg @AmmarSarwarIRad I don’t think IR on the ground agrees….

Guidelines are unanimous; For look risk procedures like paracentesis we need not check INR and should not give FFP Liver, gastroenterology, hematology, and interventional radiology societies agree So why the variation in managing “the cirrhotic coagulopathy”? 🧵

@prioritypasscom don’t you think it’s ridiculous that members flying to a Schengen destination from MUC cannot access any of your 2 lounges? What’s the point to have a membership?

@JAMA_current 4 years is not enough. While I see how going to college for 4 years before med school serves some students, itvadds unnecessary schooling years for folks who know early they want to be doctors. The 6 years programs prepare better doctors

💬 Viewpoint: Adoption of a 3-year #MedicalSchool program would reduce costs, modernize education, and alleviate physician shortages. #MedEd ja.ma/4g46euB

@noahkaufmanmd I was 1099 with a private group. Worse than W2, pretty much slavery and mistreatment at every step. Never again

No physician should be a W2 employee. Period. It’s literally economic slavery and W2 workers work until ~June FOR FREE. It’s literally insane. Come on docs, we are smarter than this. Stop being someone else’s revenue generator.

@pgMedicine Hypercapnia does not cause syncope, it causes altered mental status but does not meet the definition of syncope ( sudden onset, short duration- 1 min or less, spontaneous complete recovery)

Approach to Syncope

@AaronGoodman33 Good luck in your new adventure. Private practice works when it has the right setup and with the right people. As a hospitalist my experience as an independent contractor with a private group is the cautionary tale. Still recovering from it after 9 months

Amazing to see STARS students from across the country work together on important HVC research ❤️ @hvpaa @ChrisMoriates @Pahwa @hannahkbmd pic.twitter.com/5QKxPfDTjn

Listening to @anneghena - our 2024 STARS Faculty Excellence Award recipient - talk at the @hvpaa National Conference about why HVC matters and why it will always matter! @ChrisMoriates @Pahwa

Amazing talk on AI by Dr. Knight to kick off @hvpaa national conference. @CostsofCare @PamelaJohnsonMD

Good morning Baltimore! Ready for @hvpaa conference @Marriott. Can’t make it? Scan our QR code below for posters. Check out @HopkinsCME for our enduring material @PamelaJohnsonMD @ChrisMoriates @CostsofCare @HopkinsHospMed

@Darcy_ID_doc @UCSDHealth @UCSDMedSchool Have a great next adventure ( I might have missed it, where will you go?) . You made a difference at UCSD and I’m sure you’ll make a difference at your next stop

Last official day @UCSDHealth and @UCSDMedSchool. Grateful for everything.

@gbosslet Your patient waa randomized to the placebo arm…

I was called yesterday and told I needed to do a prior authorization for an antibiotic I wrote for pneumonia Make it make sense

@Darcy_ID_doc hope all is well. Getting questions about Resolve MDX for UTI dx, cannot find much literature, mostly company ads. Is it just a faster culture? OK to use? I assume still requires symptoms etc for dx

@malkeasaad I was a board certified internist in Europe when I moved to the USA. Based in my experience, I recommend at least one year of training when moving over. Learning the system is important. Personally I am happy I went through full residency again here

Here are the list of states that are going to allow IMGs to practice in the USA 🇺🇸 without any U.S. clinical training Check thread 🧵 below #match2025

@AskCapitalOne why is it so difficult for the travel department to change my flight reservation for involuntary cancellation by airline? @Lufthansa_USA says it’s all good but Capital One must do it cuz it’s booked through them. 5 calls and many promises later, no resolution

@brettboettcher1 @threadreaderapp pls unroll

If you struggle with joint pain, read these 30 sentences: 1) Chronic inflammation from factory food has caused more arthritis than distance running.

Thanks to @JHospMedicine for publishing or work on reducing labs with a dashboard. This was a dream when I presented to @ABIMFoundation in 2013 and now to see it in print is amazing - …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jh… @PamelaJohnsonMD @OslerResidency @JohnsHopkinsDOM

@VPrasadMDMPH Plus milestone ratings are based on evaluations from faculty, which are at least partially subjective and with low completion rates

Problems: #1 Despite efforts, patients are not randomly distributed & it's possible higher test scorers get jobs that allow them flexibility to see healthier pts #2 instead of ABIM test, you could rank docs based on a test of US history. Higher scorers may have lower mortality bc it's not the content of the test that leads to better outcomes, in fact, that may be entirely erroneous, but the type of person whose brain is able to do well on tests, who makes better decisions. I would bet big money on this. #3 none of this validates the abim which is a failed organization. @AaronGoodman33

@jason_ryanmd 50% is too high, as an average. But 20% , probably. The strategy is delay, rather than risk it and fail. First time pass is important for the student and the school. Residency programs would have to analyze the timeline on that application thoroughly to detect it

Our @UofUHealth assoc CMO, @KenceeMD blowing us away with her Hospitalists in the C-suite talk on negotiating for the role you want at @SocietyHospMed #converge24.
