Rev. Jim Lewis, an Episcopalian priest, held a ceremony to bless an abortion clinic. You can't be a Christian and promote killing babies.

Iranian regime planning to execute first female protester. Bita Hemmati, is set to be executed by hanging alongside her husband for taking part in anti-regime protests in January. Where are western feminists? Where is Jane Fonda? Where is Amal Clooney? They are silent.

@ladydatadoc @DutchRojas In theory it should be as described, yet in the two large systems I had employment contracts with; that was not my experience and the administrative silo was hostile when questioned.

The provider organization certainly knows; if it is a very large organization and the physicians are salaried, their physician management team will know (while the others may not) assuming the payments are to the TIN; not to the individuals (who are salaried). Meanwhile I do advise every physician to understand what he or she has signed off on as billed services under their NPI as the rendering physician. All the professional services have to be recorded (with coding) on the UB04 or the HCFA 1500 as part of the claim filed w the patient’s benefit plan. The financial information may not be shared but the services reported by the institution should be understood by the practitioner. And the physician should be comfortable that his/her actions are reflected correctly on those submitted claims.

We price oil to the penny in real time across 195 countries. But nobody on earth can tell you what a knee replacement costs before you get one. That’s not complexity. That’s a cartel.

🚨Wow! Major Trump-Vance policy shift just dropped: Foreign aid will now go straight to national governments — no more routing billions through NGOs. This cuts out the middlemen who’ve turned taxpayer dollars into their own bloated business model. Effect on NGOs: Many will see their funding evaporate overnight. Expect mass layoffs, shrinking budgets, and some outfits shutting down entirely. The entire aid-industrial complex just took a body blow — no more endless grift. America First is finally hitting the middlemen where it hurts.

@ladydatadoc @DutchRojas It has been my experience that the contracting of rates are done behind closed doors without the knowledge of the physicians being held to those contracted prices. This truly is cartelian.

@DutchRojas Actually we do know; the MCOs for Medicaid Medicare Commercial especially the HMOs; we have a contracted price for both hospital and surgeons, etc. The hospitals displayed charges are not related to their contracted price for the most part.

This is absolutely insane Tell this to the 100,000s of English girls who have suffered the trauma of rape gangs Tell this to the Christians and Yazidi girls and women still suffering as sex slaves Tell this to the Christians in Nigeria, Sudan, Ethiopia et all being raped and murdered by Islamists conducting a genocide Tell this to the thousand plus Jews murdered on October 7th Tell this to the Israeli Jews and Arabs subjected to Hamas/Hezbollah terrorists attacks Tell this to the native citizens seeing their cultures swamped and destroyed by criminal invaders Its OK for Pope Leo, he's got 27/7 armed security, but ordinary people are experiencing the brunt of 21st century militant Islamism

In 2012, 76% of physician practices were doctor-owned. Today it's 37%. In one decade, physicians went from running medicine to working for it. Private equity. Health systems. Insurance companies. Everyone's extracting value except the people seeing patients.

And to further the travesty...is the theft of wetware from physicians disguised as "committee" work, "administrative leadership" work, "Train the Trainer" work. While the value is "feels" for the docs, it has had horrific negative consequences in the quality of history taking, clinical exam, and the art of meeting people where they are in their health journey and carving out a plan that works for them...not standardized 💰💰💰bundles.

🚨 Michigan lost 100,000 acres of farm land to big tech, solar, windmills, and failed economic development efforts in just one year. 🚨 Before the data center boom. Michigan is not for sale. Save our farms!
Beef Initiative🇺🇸🇸🇻Beef.com@beefinitiative

Michigan. 2024. 100,000 acres gone. 200 family farms gone. One year. One state. Solar mandates, developer buyouts, zoning bypasses and a USDA that watched it happen. This isn’t a trend. It’s a liquidation. Full exposé 👇 @breeauna9 beefnews.org/michigan-loses…

Four Lessons Physicians Refuse to Learn 1. Nobody stole independence. The architecture eliminated it. The talking point is that 75% of physicians left independent practice. That frames it as a choice. It wasn’t. Reimbursement cuts, regulatory burden, and payer consolidation were designed, by lobbyists and lawmakers, to make independence economically irrational. Consolidation wasn’t an accident. It was an output. The system was architected to produce exactly this result, and it did. 2. A million high-earners with no lobby is a policy disaster. Physicians are among the highest-earning professionals in the country, and they have virtually no organized political presence. They don’t give. They don’t lobby. They don’t show up. That vacuum gets filled by hospital associations, carrier lobbyists, and PBMs who write the rules in their absence. That’s why professional fees have been declining for two decades while facility fees climb. That’s why physicians have no ownership stake in hospitals and site-neutral payment remains an uphill fight. When you leave your seat at the table empty, someone else sits in it. 3. Physicians compete with each other instead of competing with the system. The surgeon across town is not the enemy. The health system extracting 40 to 60% of collections through facility fees is the enemy. The carrier dictating reimbursement rates with no negotiation leverage on the other side is the enemy. And physicians consistently choose to compete laterally, doctor against doctor, rather than collaborate and compete vertically against the institutions that actually control their economics. Every fragmented practice is easier to acquire, easier to underpay, and easier to ignore. 4. Ownership has been on the table. Physicians keep walking away from it. Physician-owned hospitals. Captive insurance vehicles. Joint ventures. Equity-bearing partnerships. Direct contracting. Employer-based clinics. The opportunities to own infrastructure, not just practice within it, have presented themselves repeatedly. And by every evidentiary account, physicians have taken a hard pass. Not because the models don’t work. Because the profession has been conditioned to trade autonomy for a paycheck, and most doctors have accepted those terms without reading the contract.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ -Rojas out

Hospitals get paid two to three times more than a private practice office for the exact same visit. Then we wonder why 75 percent of doctors left independent practice. Neurologist Scott Tzorfas has run a solo practice for 30 years. Half his time goes to prior authorizations, billing audits, and insurance calls that resolve nothing. He can't get a cervical spine MRI approved through some commercial plans. Generic medications now require prior auth. The system didn't just fail independent physicians. It was restructured to push them out. His argument: reverse the reimbursement disparity, and doctors will follow. People follow the money. Physicians are no exception. Episode is in the comments. #PrivatePractice #PhysicianAutonomy #HealthcarePolicy #KevinMD

I’ve been called a grifter by people who built their careers inside the very system that rewards it. No entries in the Open Payments. No pharma checks. No device company consulting. No supplement lines. No affiliate links. Ten million podcast downloads and not a single ad read. That absence creates a problem for them. Because when there’s no financial trail to attack, the only move left is to invent one. So the accusation comes first. Loud. Confident. Repeated. Not because it’s true, but because it’s useful. If they can make you look conflicted, even without evidence, then suddenly everyone is the same. The playing field flattens. The conversation shifts from “is this true?” to “everyone’s biased anyway.” That’s not an argument. That’s a strategy. When your identity is built on “I save lives,” and someone starts asking uncomfortable questions about incentives, the easiest way to resolve that tension isn’t introspection. It’s projection. Take the thing that threatens you most and assign it outward. Call it out in someone else before it gets called out in you. It’s cleaner. Faster. Safer. And it works, because most people won’t check. They won’t pull the data. They won’t open the database. They’ll just hear two doctors accusing each other and assume the truth is somewhere in the middle. But it isn’t. One side has a paper trail. The other doesn’t. So instead of debating evidence, they try to erase the distinction. That’s the tell. @OSHeartDoc and @JamesHaddadMD are good examples of this behavior - quick to use the word grift when they themselves lack any integrity in this department. Some of us have systematically refused any conflicts. But the grifters are always the loudest and first to make the accusation. I’m waiting for my apologies from the baseless accusations. I doubt either has the integrity.

@DoctorTro Because PROJECTION has become standard operating procedure for the attention economy for whatever reason.

The media is running a massive cover-up for this family. Months ago we learned that Islamist Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s father Mahmood Mamdani sits on a council with literal Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives. Now the Mayor himself is facing deportation for committing federal immigration fraud to hide his own radical network. They protected the father's terror ties and now they expect you to ignore the son infiltrating American politics. That silence tells you everything you need to know. Follow me and RT to expose this.
