ATTENTION: ALL JOURNAL EDITORS. Have the courage that Jocalyn Clark and Kamran Abbasi at the BMJ have displayed here. Call all this out for what it is. And then refuse to comply. www.bmj.com/content/388/...

This is what happens when you ask me to help sanewash the Trump tariffs.

The job of congress isn't to come on here and tell us stuff, that's the media's job. Your job is to tell us what you're going to DO about it.

Jan 29 1925: dog teams set out from Nenana, Alaska to bring diphtheria antitoxin to Nome, where the disease was spreading. 20 teams & mushers carried the serum over 674 miles in under 130 hours. Jan 29 2025: calling my senator to vote against a guy, so kids can get the diphtheria vaccine next year

Training is key. Telehealth communication is different but not inferior. Let’s give our trainees a rounded education #TeleMedEd

Hearing from federal employees tonight who are getting messages via their agency’s emergency notification system, which is usually reserved for snow-related office closures, that’s like DO NOT RESPOND TO THAT EMAIL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, WE HAVE NO IDEA IF ANY OF THOSE PROMISES ARE REAL

barriers to care lead to profitable platforms by compounding meds, by-pass geography/time w/ asynchronous providers, self-pace edu vids, no prior auth & shortage, FSA/HSA eligible pay plans. I wish we invest in primary care having less barriers and time/resources to do this care instead

Most immigrants Trump targets have been here 10+ years, paying taxes, raising families, contributing to our communities. Mass deportation would devastate our economy and tear apart the social fabric of America. https://itep.org/undocumented-immigrants-taxes-2024/

Loneliness and social isolation were commonly reported among US adults aged 50 to 80 years, with higher rates reported among those not working, living alone, or with lower household incomes and poor health. ja.ma/40Q1suI #MedSky

So true. I am pro digital a lot of thing but not for this. I never had my work email on my phone. Work phone is optional and I do not have one. I do have remote laptop as notes don’t finish themselves, yet. Hope we get option for AI use soon

Let’s call about it. We don’t have to complicate screening to ‘hopeful future visits in person’ that may or may not happen. Reducing barriers to health one call at time. Let teach the next gen alternative ways to reach our patients #telemeded

The updated definition of obesity and association to functional and organ dysfunction makes more sense than the old, flawed BMI. We can set goals that make sense and avoid arrival fallacy often disrupts obesity treatment progress

Was not a big fan of bad bunny. DtMF has tones of traditional plena, salsa, cuatro guitar over modern reguetón,…; a lyrical cultural resistance sparks joy, honors nostalgia despite 🇵🇷 struggles, threats in-out of the island. Beyond adding to playlist, starts meaningful discussions w/ family & friends

I waste so much time deciphering APSO notes. I’m a SOAP note fan de por vida

New AAMC Data on #Medical School Applicants and Enrollment in 2024. Worrisome “#Black or African American matriculants declined 11.6%, the third year in a row of declines. #Hispanic , #Latino , or of Spanish Origin matriculants fell 10.8%.” www.aamc.org/news/press-r...

Worrisome and predictable. What’s @aamctoday.bsky.social propose to do about?

¡Feliz Navidad!

Encouraging myself and others to keep moving

The American Medical Association surveyed doctors about insurance “prior authorizations” and found: 41 prior auths per doctor per week 13 hours spent per week on prior auths 24% reported hospitalizations due to delays from prior auths 8% reported disability/deaths due to delays from prior auths

I need this in a shirt and hoodie. Thanks

Facing criticism, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield said it will not proceed with a policy to put time limits on coverage for anesthesia during surgery.

Transferring a community from a social media app to another will have its initial inefficiencies, skeptics, and people that refuse much like changing electric health record (EHR) software. However, if previous EHR has safety issues is in the best interest to change. Hello Med community
