Sometimes patients and families ask us very direct questions like, “is he going to get better?” I’ve found that one of our (my) subconscious defense mechanisms in response to the discomfort of directly answering is to answer it in as many words as possible.

Who on earth decided that twenty minutes was even close to enough time to room a patient, review their med list, discuss their concerns, complete a physical exam, counsel them, and address their questions? Don’t come for my efficiency, this is a system issue #FamilyMedicine

BREAKING—new #COVID19 vaccine efficacy study from Israel concludes that Pfizer/BioNTech's jab is up to 85% effective after the first dose after 15 days to day 28—and even 75% including asymptomatic cases—meaning it stops infections by 75%! Huge. 🧵 news.sky.com/story/covid-19-…

New Mich. hospital data: Of people admitted with COVID, 70% were alive and home 60 days later. Of those who'd been working, 40% either lost their job or were still too sick to work. It's not just the deaths; it's the health and economic damage. acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/…

CMS has removed review of systems as a billing requirement for office E&M services starting Jan 2021. Pinch me. Is this real? – at Cincinnati, OH
