Wrote a thing in response to the @sfchronicle's disappointing reporting on Hondurans involved with SF's drug trade (the latest chapter in a long history of drug scare-induced xenophobia) with my colleagues at the @HarmReduction and @SFAIDSFound

Over 80% of ER visits do NOT result in an admission. This is just a way to shift cost to the patient when the reality is the health care system is so broken we’re the only place that can satisfy a patient’s needs
Just got a notice that my employer is implementing a new $200 copayment for ED visits that don't end in a hospital admission (in addition to existing 10%/20% post-deductible coinsurance) citing increasing costs particularly freestanding emergency rooms...
