@Spartan4040_01 @TotalProSports This was the comment I was looking for

@RGIII @MiamiDolphins @NFL The Texans have a problem. The hit on TL and now this. Bullock doesn’t even check to see if Dubose is okay, gets right up and high fives a teammate. This is a culture problem

@NoahMcKayUCR Bills fan pulling for the Titans, that’s about as clear of a forward pass as it gets. Shocked they even called it fumble on the field

So great working with this crew to put on the symposium today at #SGIM24

Amazing to hear Dr Ed Weisbart and Dr Don Berwick talk about corporatization of medicine and how to fix it.

Stop by Exhibition Hall Booth 107 tomorrow to get a discount on PNHP membership!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. . . #SGIM24 loading!

Okay random poll—how do you pronounce SGIM?

A. ESS-JUHM
B. SIGGUM
C. ESS-GEE-EYE-EMM

I need @SocietyGIM to authorize me to be the boss of this as there is only one—maybe 2—acceptable answers. 😂😂

MARTA gonna reimburse all the United fans you trapped on your westbound train for the last 20 minutes or nah

Today students from across the country earn their MD. Where they practice is greatly influenced by the value they believe each state assigns to healthcare access. Georgia lags far behind

Georgia’s failure to expand Medicaid means fewer doctors will stay in state

Kemp on Medicaid expansion in 2025: ‘I’m in the no camp.’ In forceful remarks, the Republican governor says joining 40 other states with expanded Medicaid coverage is ‘not good policy’ for Georgia #gapol https://t.co/V83IIWyqY0

Congrats ⁦⁦⁦@gradydoctor⁩ !

We all know what you mean to your patients and colleagues at Grady and I’m so happy that the City has recognized you for your impact on this community! https://t.co/WtNYyM2er9

“With the money [Congress] would save by not overpaying Medicare Advantage, they could pay for hearing, eye care, [and other benefits] in the regular Medicare program.”

#MedicareDisadvantage

[Dr. Michelle Au @AuforGA]

Rep Wade, we’re friends, I like and respect you, but I fail to understand how a patient living in the coverage gap without health insurance, with their nose pressed against the window of any new hospital, will be able to substantively avail themselves of the care offered inside.

[Dr. Michelle Au @AuforGA]

In the weeks ahead we’ll continue to share expert testimony from our Medicaid Expansion hearing on 1/10.

At the end of the hearing we heard public testimony. Drs. Toby Terwilliger and Mindy Guo are pediatric and internal medicine trained hospitalists who practice in Atlanta.

1. In @medpagetoday Dan Resnick and I wrote about the disregard for incarcerated patient rights and dignity in hospital settings. My hope is that more healthcare workers will engage with why this happens and push their institutions to change. @genevievefri https://t.co/owBRaxZAwR

[Toby (He/Him) @TobyOrDocToby]

More surprising is that nearly half of Republicans — 47% — said the state should expand the program to cover the uninsured poor, continuing a trend of widening support from GOP voters @RepBenWatson @GovKemp @LtGovJonesGA

May Tortuguita inspire more to build a world where safety is created in community and to reject the false promises of safety that ever increasing policing, prisons, and surveillance will never deliver.

If corporate health insurers aren’t keeping Americans out of debt, then what *are* they doing with all of our premium dollars? 💸
