Here is an observational study w non random comparisons that 💯 comports w what I believe. But. But.
Now I am not sure we should jump to the causal conclusions that nearly everyone is making.
Is this one of the trial emulations that would align w an RCT? (I’m asking)

everyone with acute, severe hypoxemia & bilateral lung infiltrates now has ARDS 🙄
we’re converting a trashcan diagnosis into a gigantic dumpster bin.
studies on this increasingly heterogenious group of patients will struggle to find any useful therapies.
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.”

@Ryan_WilsonMD@CZackMD@Mike_P_Pfeiffer@JohnBoehmer3 Provocative, but not practice changing. SCAI class D/E in 50% of context arm vs 20% in FlowTriever arm, almost certainly people chose to give tPA in patients who were more unstable on average, hard to capture in the data but already suggested by the above
@drmoneymatters@sethmhardy@ScottTruhlar This is my biggest concern. Talking to trainees over the years it's shocking how many get pushed into WL who aren't saving in their tax-adv accts. From an ed standpoint for beginners you get better learning/retention with a clear rather than ambiguous message.

@sethmhardy Have to hold for 3+ decades to have an overall positive return, and you'd still be far behind compared to investing in a tax-efficient manner in index funds in a taxable brokerage account. Need a very specific thing that whole life can provide to justify the lower return.
@sethmhardy There are a lot of boxes you need to check that physicians won't come close to hitting, maxing out tax-advantaged space, having an estate tax issue ($12.06 mil for 2022, x2 if married, so probably not), needing asset protection for very specific reasons, etc.
@maahmed1218@PennStHershey I'm just glad to have had the privilege of being your coach during your time here. Getting to work with you all is easily one of the best things about my job.
