To celebrate the ISMA's175th birthday, we took a look back at 175 years of Hoosiers making medical history. https://t.co/6mZXo0cafc

Physicians spend years going through the rigors of medical school and training to give those they treat personal attention and the highest level of expertise. Their knowledge and experience help patients make the health care decisions that are right for them. #YourCareIsAtOurCore

[Indiana State Medical Association @TheISMA]

Physicians train for years to learn how to care for patients, how to distinguish among conditions with similar symptoms, and how to help patients gain the knowledge to make informed decisions about their health. #YourCareIsAtOurCore

[Indiana State Medical Association @TheISMA]

The time physicians spend with patients is a critical part of their care. Explaining health conditions, answering questions, and ensuring patients truly understand their care gives patients the resources they need to make treatment decisions. #HealthLiteracyMonth

Also as an FYI to @RobSchneider in the event his post wasn’t a joke- perhaps the reason you didn’t see any sick kids when you were 10, is because they all died as infants… precisely because we didn’t have children’s hospitals to save them.

[Jerome Adams @JeromeAdamsMD]

Perhaps this was a joke, but when @RobSchneider was 10 years old, life expectancy was 10 yrs less than it is today. Mature and rational adults can both acknowledge problems with our current health and healthcare, AND acknowledge the benefits of modern medicine & public health.

You don't gotta knock on wood, because it ain’t hard to see that Hands-Only CPR can be the key to saving a life!

If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives to the beat of @taylorswift13’s new hit “Wood.”

The patient-physician relationship is the cornerstone of quality care at every stage of life. Every conversation, every checkup is an opportunity for parents to learn and make informed decisions about their child’s health. #YourCareIsAtOurCore

[Indiana State Medical Association @TheISMA]

In every decision they make, physicians have one paramount goal in mind: the best interest of their patients. Physicians deliver high quality care by offering personalized advice and treatment plans honed by years of training and education. #YourCareIsAtOurCore

“With COVID, vaccines, Lyme disease, any of it — I’m not your enemy,” I told my seatmate as we were getting ready to disembark. “And I know you’re not the enemy, either.”

“True,” he agreed. “But they always want to make someone your enemy.” https://t.co/0JXiIM6Van

@PresAmerMed Mukkamala: Medical care needs strong health care teams, but those teams need to be led by physicians, the ones who have the depth and training to ensure patients receive the best care possible. Large majorities of patients say they want physician-led care. #YourCareIsAtOurCore

[Indiana State Medical Association @TheISMA]

Leading off #ISMACon25 Day 2: @AmerMedicalAssn president Dr. Bobby Mukkamala. He warns direct and indirect effects of federal #Medicaid cutbacks will lead many people to not seek care, or delay the screenings that can catch problems early.

[Indiana State Medical Association @TheISMA]

.@PresAmerMed: 94% of physicians say senseless #PriorAuthorization requirements have delayed care. #PatientsOverPriorAuth

Day 2 of #ISMACon25 begins with presentation of the colors by the Sons of the American Revolution.
