Did you know 90% of Americans never reach their deductibles? That means most healthcare is paid out-of-pocket. And with 18 billion treatments annually, the market for cash-priced services under $6,000 is ripe for disruption. Imagine knowing upfront that an MRI costs $400 at one facility and $4,800 at another. Transparency saves money, builds trust, and gives patients real power. It’s time to demand it. #PatientPower #TransparentHealthcare #healthcare

Good news for everyone who's overcommitted: There isn’t a bonus for finishing a task early. New evidence: Although missing deadlines is penalized, beating them isn't rewarded. Being done ahead of schedule is not a badge of honor. Nothing worth doing is worth rushing to finish.

High secure messaging volume among inpatient clinicians was associated with increased odds of wrong-patient ordering errors. ja.ma/3OCgsp1 @tkannampallil @sunnylouMD @drdaphnelew @washumedicine

Amazing thread on expert clinicians. This is part of the reason I feel when you are a student, resident, fellow watch as many people as you can because they may show you something you may want to emulate. I have the privilege as an attending to observe on rounds. #MedEd
Here are 10 things that expert clinicians do everyday, often without realizing it🩺 (and how we can all start to implement these in our own practice) A 🧵 #foamed #MedTwitter

If you are due for assessment with @ABIMcert (recertification) in 2025, consider enrolling in the #LKA (Longitudinal Knowledge Assessment). You can answer questions on your own time. You can always switch back to the 10 year exam if you decide it’s not for you. @DrErinRamelb @alikhan28 @Dr_B_UMJMHIM @yejnes @nagdeep_gupta

My argument is simple: people who say they want to see a return of American manufacturing don't actually vote with their dollar. Let me show you. 🧵
Replying to @dieworkwear
Based on your logic we should just give up local manufacturing and send everything overseas because child labor is cheaper than US labor? That we don’t need to manufacture anything locally? That’s quite a ignorant argument How come every other country has protectionism?

Little discussed fact: Choosing to not “treat” high blood pressure makes you look like a wacko to the nurses and CRNAs/anesthesiologists in the real world where I practice It requires lots of time, explanation, being present, and even documentation of your rationale
