On this day celebrating 🇺🇸 independence, 🧵about another kind of "taxation without representation" & how community leaders are ending Wall St's (& their water carriers) colonization of our communities. And, how #web3 can turbocharge return of health sovereignty.

@ColtonOrtolf @chasedave Basic EMR meaning prescribing meds, ordering and resulting labs. That’s it. Imaging and referrals still a goddamn fax mess. And documenting an oral conversation via abridge. Other than that, it’s all apps.ePrescribing is a plug-in. Labs too. So, it’s literally all apps.

[Colton Ortolf @ColtonOrtolf]

@jayparkinson @chasedave Basic EMR = Compliance as a Service. You are right. Everything else is apps.

CMS notwithstanding, we are fixing this on the commercial payer side. @chasedave

Thank you, Oklahoma House Speaker @kylehilbert, Speaker Pro Tem @RepMoore57, and Rep. Marilyn Stark for advancing S.B. 889 through the House Public Health Committee and prioritizing real prices for all healthcare consumers in OK!

Today marks a brighter future in America now that an executive order on healthcare price transparency has been signed.
This issue was never about politics for me, it was about doing the right thing for every patient, worker, employer, and union across the country. The American healthcare system had been robbing all of us by hiding their prices and charging whatever they wanted. It was un-American and unethical. Now, we can celebrate this huge victory and a big thank you to @PowertoPatnts and all that supported

A man on a mission to fight for real prices in healthcare. #PowerToThePatients

🧵 how we could harness this wild economy for good (1/15)

[PatientRightsAdvocate.org @PtRightsAdvoc]

In @GovBraun’s State of the State, he highlighted Melissa Dietrich’s story. She faced a surprise $1,348 bill for a routine checkup & bloodwork. Melissa fought the bill & only had to pay $305.

Real upfront prices will give patients like Melissa financial certainty.

@ePatientDave @chrissyfarr When a conference is mostly pay-to-play to be on the stage and the majority of the speakers are mega players that have shown over decades that they kill off anything that threatens short-term earnings, chances are it's not worth going to.

@tferriss #Healthcare question 2: Did TEDx talk (back in '16) on org that solved healthcare. If every employer did what they did, it would be recurring $500B stimulus so we started social movement to replicate. [See https://t.co/4Kfham7GJU for more]

Working so well we open sourced how we do it via new non-profit https://t.co/wZjFYTAmLQ -- how to contract in this new model + data tech (https://t.co/KaYGfhBMjB). Have come a long ways since TED talk 8 years ago but still a long, long ways to go to break out.

@tferriss #Healthcare Question #1 in 5 bullet Friday: Denials is tip of the iceberg on health system cost-related items driving death. Highly likely cost of care is 3rd leading cause of death. https://t.co/Kbxganfw3z

@ChrisStolzman @813JAFERD Check out https://t.co/2xH6hOlXAZ -- tons of businesses have opted out of the Blue Cross, United Ciga Aetna world and moved to far superior health plans. Coincidentally, the annual gathering of this community will be in your neck of the woods next summer (https://t.co/WZ6ali4ks2)

@chrissyfarr 4/4 Regulatory bodies need to scrutinize these practices to protect consumers. Brokers placing self-insured plans with major carriers for "network value" may be misguided, as networks provide little fiscal benefit.

[Dave Chase: Community-owned health plan catalyst @chasedave]

@chrissyfarr 3/4 Carrier subsidiaries selling services back to parent companies inflate costs without clear benefit to patients. This fuels market concentration and executive compensation while premiums soar.
