The U.S. health care industry, in a single headline.

important update from a legend:

@chrislhayes @POTUS needs to use the 14th Amendment. The MAGA republicans have no standing to challenge it, they would not be damaged by the United States paying its bills for lawful expenses that created the debt that must be paid.

[Dr. Amy, Psy.D. @DrAmyPsyD]

Employers and supervisors who insist that we "shouldn't be in this for the money" should be required to post their salary where all employees can view it.

@DrZedZha Ten years from now, the commercials will be, “have you ever had a medication wrongly denied by your insurance? You may be eligible for a monetary settlement. Call *law firm* today!” There is plenty of people with a claim, maybe it’s time for a class action against med insurance..

Story of the life of many with varying diagnoses. Migraine prevention has been quite a nightmare over the years for me, for this very reason..

[Zed Zha, MD, FAAFP @DrZedZha]

My note: Drug A made patient’s condition much worse and is contraindicated in this condition. We will give Drug B which is first line treatment.

Insurance company: Denied. Must try Drug A.

Thank you for this. As someone with ADHD and fought like hell to get diagnosis and treatment as an adult, it’s important to realize that some people need an outlet to keep the balance. Screen time and social media help with regulation for many.

BREAKING: The CEO of @Hertz wrote a letter to Puerto Rico‘s representative in Congress stating that Hertz has rewritten its policy to make it abundantly clear that Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory - not a foreign country - & because of that Puerto Rico driver’s licenses are not international IDs they are just as valid as any ID from any state in this union. This news follows the story I first reported last week, where a Puerto Rican man at the New Orleans international airport was denied a rental car because at least two Hertz workers said his license was international. On top of that, the man who recorded the incident, had the police called on him by a Hertz employee who said he can never rent from Hertz again because he recorded the incident. *She was wrong; he can rent from Hertz again*. The police officer who responded to the call was dismissive and rude and is now the subject of an internal investigation by his police department because the customer, Mr. Humberto Marchand, filed a complaint with the @KennerPolice. Following our report, Representative @Jenniffer wrote a letter to Hertz asking for a companywide educational campaign, and she got it.
Lastly: Puerto Ricans are United States citizens. Please share.

@v_shiv24 I’ve had it three times in a year and just turned 28. I 💯 do not recommend. Hoping it does not return again.

President Biden’s campaign promise was to cancel ALL federal student debt for people who went to public schools or HBCUs & earn under $125K annually. America elected him on that promise.

That this hasn’t happened & instead they’re considering a max of $10K forgiveness is a shame

This NP is on point. All providers should do this. Sadly, we still have HCPs not believing in the vaccine.

[Just call me Summer 🏝 @savingthedocto1]

A nurse practitioner where I work at offers her patients the covid vaccine and if they decline, she then pulls out advance directive papers and fills them out right then with the patient. I think I love her.

[Dr. Sanjay Gupta @drsanjaygupta]

A major milestone: the first FDA-approved Covid-19 vaccine. This may convince more people to get vaccinated and give businesses and institutions more standing for vaccine mandates. https://t.co/mjVmSoRQFe

Here we go, Texas. There is an ER doc from Houston crowdsourcing on a physician Facebook group of 50K doctors. Patient is mid-40s, sick w/ something w/ high probability of death (not COVID) & needs ICU care & GI procedure stat. ER doc can’t find any beds and “will fly anywhere.”

[Adam Sacarny @asacarny]

This doctor picked the wrong patient to upcode.

I’m not sure who needs to hear this but: Medical experts publish their work in medical journals not on YouTube.

Anyone concerned about their country welcoming refugees from the crisis in Afghanistan should read this.
