Value-based payment structures and readmission penalties incentivize longitudinal care. https://t.co/rzhgbD6P2y @HeyCurrent @AdamWolfberg @PatientPremier #pain #health #chronicpain #anxiety #depression

It seemed inevitable that we would begin to treat a mild respiratory infection (Omicron in low-risk vaccinated adults) like we treat the common cold. The key will be protecting patients and colleagues? https://t.co/bkNJSOfS1x

Prenatal genetic screening always requires thoughtful patient counseling and nuanced communication. I'm encouraged that @TheACMG and @EllenMatloff are correcting simplified @nytimes reporting in their letter to the editor https://t.co/7aVwQ2mLyk and in https://t.co/rUOB6TaAR3.

@HeyCurrent @hcittoday @sarahkrug1 @MattSakumoto @DanYourk Empathy transcends the medium that use to communicate: be present, listen, validate, support. And be cognizant of when tech can become a barrier. Consider the phone when video is hard, and recruit friends and family to be patient advocates.

@BostonGlobe This is the chart that takes into account all of the COVID-positive patients who self-diagnose using home-based testing and never get a PCR (and make it into the official count).

@RobbieSherwood I wore that device in a massive holster on my belt with PRIDE!

@MFMSperling @neel_shah @Andrea37786547 @HaeriSina Strikes me that MFM is one of the most telehealth-friendly subspecialties:
1. Most common/useful procedure is ultrasound
2. Physical exam is rarely critical
3. Consultation to patient and provider can be provided remotely.
(Of course telehealth amnio/CVS won't work.)

@sarahkliff @nytimes @aatishb Respectfully, this isn't an 'investigation,' but rather, a crude meta-analysis of data others have already published. The problem you describe - the risk of a false-positive result - is part in all screening tests. OBGYNs counsel their patients about this every day. News?

[Adam Wolfberg, MD @AdamWolfberg]

@commonhealth The risk of dying of COVID must be orders of magnitude greater than the risk of a vaccine-associated clot. Is this message too complex to communicate?

Dredged out college calculus for the critically important task of predicting the time needed to get a bib in the 2021 @bostonmarathon. https://t.co/E3Px3o6Bdk Thanks to @ade3 for his advice.

Great interview with @BostonTweet about turning a passion for #running and social impact into two great organizations. @StrideForStride and https://t.co/gNh8aKFwVy. https://t.co/81ygUDRuYd

Inspiring new podcast: Lost on the Run with Larissa interviews Dave McGillivray @DMSE about #running and #giving and the #bostonmarathon. https://t.co/C1e1l8W4ig. Shoutouts to @DMSESports @bostonmarathon @BAA (Disclosure: podcaster is my daughter.)

Giving myself a quarantine haircut using two mirrors to clip the back reminded me of learning to operate laparoscopically as a junior OBGYN resident (MUCH lower stakes, of course). Anyone else have that experience?

[Adam Wolfberg, MD @AdamWolfberg]

@dlbernson @neel_shah Incredible data. Thank you.

[Adam Wolfberg, MD @AdamWolfberg]

@kimidefreytas We surveyed 2,113 pregnant and postpartum women last weekend. Before COVID-19, 0.7% were planning a home birth; now 2.5% are planning that.

@100percentdoula Such an important point: childbirth education can be accomplished remotely (not ideal, but possible) and it's one more way doulas, physicians, and midwives can help women feel supported during this crazy time.

Here's an approach to making prenatal care safe in the time of COVID-19: https://t.co/9pgNO1liaL

Three times as many pregnant women are planning a home birth now compared to before COVID-19 in a survey of 2,212 women. https://t.co/vWPS5Dhz79
