@SDOTbridges It’s broken. Go a different way.

@HARRlS0N_ @chibicurmudgeon But they do forcibly impregnate the horses repeatedly and then kill the babies :(

This is what the Republican party wants to force on everyone.

Here’s the dirty secret of emergency medicine:

We don’t have to do prior auth. Like ever. We just order what the patient needs, and the patient gets it done in the ED.

But here’s why we care about prior auth anyways:

B/c not a shift goes by where a patient doesn’t land in the ER as a last resort when #priorauth denied or delayed them the outpatient care they needed.

[ProPublica @propublica]

Doctors at a major US insurance company deny tens of thousands of claims a month without even looking at patients’ files.

“We literally click & submit,” a former Cigna doctor told @ProPublica & @Capitol_Forum. “It takes all of 10 seconds to do 50 at a time.”

The inside story 🧵

[Bryan Carmody @jbcarmody]

Well, I was having a pretty good day till my mentions filled with silly talk about how hospitals lose money training residents.

So riddle me this, Batman:

If residents are money losers, why is HCA Healthcare now the biggest sponsor of GME in the U.S.?

1/Doesn't everyone in US deserve concierge-level #primarycare? A 🧵 I recently met with the ambassador to the US from a nation w/1 family physician for every 125 families. The US has 1 FP for every 1,232 households (1/507 households if incl all PCPs).

Repro justice folks: do you have Brackeen v. Haaland on your radar? This case will rule on the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act. It impacts the rights of Native families to parent their children & the rights of Native children to grow up in Native homes.

In 2019, the University of New Mexico’s neurosurgery residency program lost its accreditation.

It took 23 NPs/PAs to replace the work of 8 residents… at ~5x the cost for the institution.

There is 100% no such thing as "both sides" coverage of abortion. Interviewing anti-abortion extremists is fuel for disinfo & violence. Read abt the @prhdocs letter signed by 600 abortion docs & orgs (incl us!) to demand the media give #NoAirTimeForAntis. https://t.co/MBhf365qIE

[Dr. Daniel Grossman @DrDGrossman]

Remember when @POTUS fiiiiiiiiiinally said the word “abortion” and issued those executive orders in response to the Dobbs decision?

Well, one of those orders instructed @HHSGov to issue a report. Because I’m a nerd for reports on abortion, I wondered, “where is that report?” 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@prh.org @prhdocs]

Abortion is health care.

As physicians, we’re tired of being quoted in the media with anti-abortion activists. There aren’t “both sides” to this issue. Pregnant people’s humanity isn’t up for debate.

We’re asking the media to stop giving antis a platform. #NoAirTimeForAntis

[KHJN @KyHealthJustice]

NAF is not currently funding patients in Kentucky. We want to say thank you to everyone who has donated to us and an even bigger thank you to @ChiAbortionFund and Hoosier Abortion Fund for showing up for Kentuckians! We couldn't do this work without you!

[Zoe Taylor @ZSansted]

Give until it hurts

[Whole Woman's Health @WholeWomans]

We appreciate anything you can give as we navigate a future without #Roe.

Planned parenthood in several states has even stopped doing d&c’s for missed miscarriages, even though that would be completely legal. It doesn’t make any sense how they are so unwilling to rise to the occasion.

[Dr. Rebecca [email protected] @WakeRevolt]

“Planned Parenthood of Montana will no longer provide medication abortions for patients from South Dakota, Arkansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma and will now require proof of residency for the treatment.” https://t.co/t5JkNztOK5
