The reach of #GUNviolence grows every day. I will carry this with me. This is my story. #ThisIsOurLane#ACP#Annals
Excited to make change for America's internal medicine residents and fellows during today's @ACPIMPhysicians Council of Resident/Fellow Members meeting. #ACPResFel
#TipsForNewDocs
Pt prescribed a med- on follow-up, is not taking it.
Wrong: "Pt is noncompliant."
Right: "Pt unable to take med because __. We discussed strategies including __."
Don't start chart rumors - understanding problems >>>> labeling patients.

I am so excited to start my new position today as a Hospitalist and Assistant Professor of Clinical Medicine at @PennMedicine with the @PennHospitalist team!
On why he supported @PennMedicine trainee unionization:
"The cost of training residents and fellows is far less than the revenue generated by residents and fellows."

Returning from a conference has the dichotomy of highs of innovation and motivation to build on projects and start new against the the post conference reality of delayed administrative burdens and tasks that went unaddressed for those days. Anyone feel the same? #MedTwitter
Strengthen Medicare for Patients and Providers Act and Kids Access to Primary Care Act: Medicare enrollees access is at risk and the system has not kept up with inflation-led to staff shortages, service limitations, etc.

REDI and Resident Physician Shortage Reduction Act:
Addresses doc shortage of ~124K, maldistribution of primary care, student debt of $200K+
Act: interest-free deferment during training, increase Medicare GME spots

Safe Step Act:
Would help remove barriers to pt care and reduce admin burden by reforming step therapy. Step therapy is a “fail-first” policy AKA lower priced med failure before approving originally prescribed meds.
