• United Health will PROFIT about $22.3 billion this year.
• 50% of hospitals will lose money this year.
• 47% of US healthcare workers plan to leave within the next 3 years.
That is the current state of US healthcare, and it should terrify everyone.

“Doctors no longer minister to a distinctive person, but concern themselves with fragmented, malfunctioning body parts.” How can we fix this element of medicine? @drval may know the answer: bit.ly/2OOUdiX

What scares me most about TPA in stroke is how a harmful, expensive drug became anointed despite dubious evidence. My critical appraisal > medscape.com/viewarticle/895… < exposes deep flaws in medical science #FOAMed

Because collecting only administrative fees & adding 4% to healthcare cost overall, as they claim, get u paid those kind of salaries, not to mention bonuses & stock options. Dear #congress please wake up & do something about this @RepDougCollins @SenSanders @RepValDemings

Big budget. Lots of good increases despite the politics surrounding withdrawal of some elements of the ACA. Hopeful for some progress in prevention, public health, mental health, and substance abuse. Read more 👇👇👇 medscape.com/viewarticle/894…

Public unawareness of physician reimbursement - shocking the discrepancy between how much people think we get paid vs what we actually get paid.

This is useful data to quote when patients ask, "Why not chose alternative med over chemo?"
Patients who chose alt medicine over conventional #cancer therapy faced a significantly higher risk of death. bit.ly/2BMNQFV
Great work by @YaleCOPPER @cpgYALE in @JNCI_Now

Lots of folks concerned about threats of retaliation by ABMS member boards or workplace when speaking out on #MOC survey. Hence why it’s more important than ever for everyone to complete and add their stories (if not their names) surveymonkey.com/r/PPA_MOCSu…
