The math: Year over year, the $/RVU conversion rate set by CMS has decreased. We are set to be almost 10% less since 2020 with CMS’ most recently announced proposal for 2024. With the ~17% inflation since then, this puts us at total 23% decrease.😡 https://t.co/yt0iaKb34Y

I am holding my breath witnessing @lubitz_carrie’s stunning @AcademicSurgery presidential address. What more do we need to know that we need a seismic shift in how physician mental health is (or isn’t) prioritized in academic surgery?
