EviCore’s most lucrative contracts involve it taking on responsibility for paying claims. Say an insurer spends $10 million a year on MRIs. If EviCore keeps costs below that figure, it pockets the difference or splits the savings with the insurer. https://t.co/mWrxgyDpM9

When companies like Aetna or UnitedHealthcare want to rein in costs, they turn to EviCore, whose business model depends on turning down payments for care recommended by doctors for their patients.

Claude Noriega and his family were upset to learn his #bladdercancer didn't respond to chemotherapy and immunotherapy like they'd hoped. However, a new medication led to an incredible response - Noriega's tumor was gone. https://t.co/57PDtYYhmg #BladderCancerAwarenessMonth

@fepblue Monday will mark 7 days delay in my patient starting #cancer treatment despite our EXPEDITED appeal and us calling daily…. AND my prior Tweet! If you are going to require appeal for most IMRT, you should have a #radonc available to review it. This delay is unacceptable!

I have found split course RT incredibly useful. Delivers at least a good #palliative dose, + assess tolerance & disease status before committing to definitive doses. Proud to report our @CleClinicMD experience. https://t.co/fTuwpK0Ftw. @ShlomoKoyfmanMD @ShaunaRadOnc #radonc

Background/Aim: Head and neck cancers are often treated with extended courses of radiotherapy (RT), which may prove excessively toxic for frail patients. Split course RT (SCRT) delivers two courses...

My residency BFF, @SParsaiMD, is now saving lives as an attending at @OH_Riverside, but she still takes the time to send her old co-residents some love and lunch! We miss you in the resident room, but dwelling in the Lightstring is the next best thing! 💗
