If #1 only made $89.6 million instead, there would enough left over to pay every IR in the US an extra $100,000.
And physicians take a massive pay cut next year...

CLI and health disparities are not just an #IRad problem...not just a #VascularSurgery problem...not just a #cardiology/#vascular medicine problem. It is all of our problem. A multidisciplinary approach to addressing this is the only way we will eradicate it.

As we celebrate #HispanicHeritageMonth, remember that ethnicity is a major factor in healthcare disparities. In a recent study, Hispanics were again shown to have an increase rate of amputation due to CLI and infection compared to non-Hispanic whites. https://t.co/yyUNu08NBR

Thanks to @ifechiukehMD and @pj_rochon for their accompanying commentary highlighting the need for better access to TIPS and liver disease care in minority and lower socioeconomic populations. We must continue to fight these disparities in medicine.
