The largest purchaser of healthcare in America isn't Medicare. It isn't Medicaid. It's employers — and they are more motivated than ever to join the fight for more affordable healthcare

HC costs have suppressed wages for workers for far too long
The American Heart Association mourns the passing of the legendary cardiologist Eugene Braunwald, M.D., widely recognized as one of the most influential figures in the history of cardiovascular medicine. Over seven decades, his work reshaped the understanding and treatment of heart disease, leading many to call him the father of modern cardiology.
Braunwald was a lifelong contributor to the American Heart Association, helping advance its research and scientific mission, and was honored with some of the Association’s highest honors for his lasting influence on cardiovascular care and research. His influence extended well beyond his own discoveries, as generations of Association‑supported investigators, clinicians and academic leaders were trained by Braunwald or guided by the clinical trial standards and mentorship models he helped establish.

Led by @vrpatel97 in @AnnalsofIM, we show that physicians are more likely to die at home or hospice than others. However, modest gaps suggest that even medical knowledge and familiarity with serious illness are not the principal drivers of end-of-life care

In @NEJM, we discuss the growing fiscal challenges posed by GLP-1s and present a new opportunity for payers to consider: liraglutide. We review the comparative efficacy and argue that this newly generic GLP-1 may better balance access and affordability.
