             Really important early work on the effects of ransomware attacks on patients from @HNeprash @saynikpay and Claire McGlave! We talk a lot about financial impacts, but there are so many other consequences for patients. This is a great writeup in Stat. 
           Assistant Professor @HNeprash, PhD student Claire McGlave, and Associate Professor @saynikpay write about their discoveries around how harmful hospital ransomware attacks are for patients.  https://t.co/7aIDVnbd9U

             It's such an honor to be on @tradeoffspod today, talking about the research on hospital ransomware attacks that Claire McGlave, @saynikpay, and I have been doing! 
           In 2021, @HNeprash was listening to our episode on ransomware and was inspired to study how these attacks impact patient care. Today, she joins us to share her striking findings: patients in a hospital when a ransomware attack hits are more likely to die.  https://t.co/Jz8FdGVLpI

             Electronic medical payments were supposed to save doctors billions and benefit patients. Instead, payment processors convinced a federal agency that they were allowed to charge fees to doctors and pocket the profits.

             The policy known as “site neutral payment” is making some noise in Washington. It’s at the center of 5 active bills in the House and made cameos in 2 hearings on the Hill.

           This week we tackled a policy so wonky that we worried we’d lose @dmgorenstein in the weeds of Washington DC forever. So we built him a special ship we’re calling … the Jargonaut! Don’t miss its maiden voyage! 🚀  https://t.co/7EQohU3biV
