Trainees: Demystify the care of your patients! 1. Do not be satisfied by only reviewing the notes/reports. 2. Go to your patient's endoscopy 3. Watch IR do the embolization 4. Review the images with radiology 5. Look at those bleeping pumps & ask the nurse how they function.

I’ll keep saying it. Doctors and nurses who work for @UHC or any other health insurance company are soulless ghouls. Please use your knowledge and experience for good. Please.

Hospital CEO compensation up 93%, doctor compensation up 15-26% over a decade, nurses up 3%. On average, CEOs make 5X what the orthopedic surgeons make and 44X what the nurses make. You can't make this stuff up. Imagine 44 more nurses on your unit.

Over the past decade, salaries for hospital CEOs have risen much faster than for surgeons, physicians, and nurses, reports a new study.
