In this pilot study, primary care and GI clinicians used 1 in 5 #AI-generated draft replies to patient inbox messages, which were linked to reductions in cognitive load and burnout scores, but not time savings. https://t.co/iXlLYQUTJs

@DrReddyGI OMG! This is a HUGE issue... & not just FL & not just for UHC. Payers are constantly denying medically necessary care in hopes MDs will give up. Don't forget you have an advocate in @AmerGastroAssn!
GIs, if your medically appropriate care gets denied, let me know!

There's a whole new series of new diagnosis codes for gastric intestinal metaplasia in ICD-10-CM 2022!!! https://t.co/OoCgjBi28Q Shout out to @joohahwang, @RobHuangMD and many others who my twitter-challenged self can't find for making this happen😍

@JeffConklinMD @doc_zubin Elevated IRP looks to be mostly from slight tachypnea and diaphragmatic contraction. Esophagram and endoscopy show open GEJ - delay on esophagram from absent peristalsis. Could do endoflip to confirm esophagram and endoscopy findings.

[Dan Patel, MD, FACG, AGAF @EsophagusDoc]

Ever wonder what is the number needed to treat for PPI for various esophageal symptoms? Heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, chronic cough, reflux laryngitis?

Check out this excellent paper @AGA_CGH. @AmerGastroAssn @ForegutSociety @AmCollegeGastro
