As we naturally compare specialties in the JAMA graph, it's important to also look what happens when you draw the axes out fully ā¤µļø The overall burnout is the problem. #MedTwitter @jbcarmody

I would like to propose the creation of a relative value unit system for administrators to update q15 min during their other tasks to justify their productivity and ongoing effectiveness to the clinicians whose patient care financially supports their very presence; end rant.

A rise in physician employment and health care administrators has created tension. The AMA says physicians should be the ones making medical decisions for their patients.

Couldn't agree more! As a former @NREFORG course attendee, it was a blast to spend the weekend at the MIS & Emerging Technology course teaching such an engaged and impressive group of residents! The future of spine surgery is bright! ✨🄼🩻 @ahnneuroscience

Funny thing about this photo The photographer said ā€˜you’re sitting like a man, maybe change your leg position’ I smiled and said ā€˜no, this is how I like to sit, that’s the whole point of the article’ 🫠

30 infants die and we recall 4.7 mil Rock ā€˜n Play Sleepers. 2 toddlers die and we recall 3.2 mil Calico Critters toys. 2 infants die and we recall so much formula that the US goes into shortage. Last year, over 6,000 children were injured by gun violence. Nothing. Nada.

Cigna uses an automated system that allows ā€œmedical directorsā€ (doctors employed by @Cigna) to deny a claim in 1.2 seconds without opening the patient’s file. Please read this, share it, and help us (metaphorically) burn these companies to the ground.

Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files. ā€œWe literally click & submit,ā€ a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. ā€œIt takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.ā€ The inside story 🧵
