@ryendavis2 @42Cyc Exactly. This is JJ McCarthy’s throw. First practice with fans isn’t until Sat. Calm down everyone.

When I was practicing in the ER, it was easier to admit an elderly patient to the ICU for $10K/night than it was to get them a primary care appt for a $10/month blood pressure med. Our system is that broken. Here’s what we’re doing to fix it at Gather Health.🧵

Needless to say, lots of incredible work is happening at Gather. We plan to open more clinics in Massachusetts and then expand to new markets. Big thanks to @amyfeldman at @Forbes for helping shine a light on our mission to radically change how we care for older adults👇

mom is struggling

she deserved a better fate than Alzheimer’s

so did her father, but here we are

my mom is a devout Christian — she believed in the power of prayer

today I want to ask you to keep my mom in yours

Piece by @AsplinMD on why we need to change primary care to incentive align with the goals of healthy aging of Americans and not keep forcing people into a funnel for more hospital billing, but use technology to improve wellbeing at point of living.

I was laid off from Twitter today. I was the designer in charge of our new rebranding to X.

I learned so much in my 2.5 weeks at the company but I’m excited to see where I land next.

If you’re hiring a self taught, junior designer please DM me. Graphic design is my passion!

The love is felt, & extremely real. No matter race or religion everybody coming together in prayer! 🙏❤️
