Glad ACP Internist highlighted CRC Screening this week. https://t.co/8ZhxkTB5Zw; with quotes from Dave Miller (Wake Forest), a friend, colleague, and another of many investigators mentored by @mpignone88 who have moved this field @CCSI_UNC@corp_UNC@UNCDeptMedicine@UNC_GIM
Michael Dougherty carried us on this ambitious effort. Now for scaling and better implementation that includes repeat FIT or colonoscopy for those who are FIT+ @CCSI_UNC@corp_UNC
Great work by Michael Dougherty and many others at @UNCGastro, @UNC_Lineberger, @uncsheps, @UNCpublichealth on huge systematic review and meta-analysis showing that fecal blood test outreach improves CRC screening. https://t.co/35r4hO9QYo
Congratulations to Laura Cubillos, @mpignone88, @alison_brenner, @DReuland + @UNC_Lineberger colleagues on conducting an initiative to standardize reporting of #lungcancer screening through a multidisciplinary approach! Read here: https://t.co/FiJMkWL3Sf …
Shared decision making for lung cancer screening makes sense given that there are both benefits and non-trivial harms/costs. In our small sample, harms of screening were not discussed at all. Let's work for a system and a culture that seeks patients' informed preferences.
Nat’l recs advise drs to discuss benefits & harms of #lungcancerscreening b/c of high false + & other factors, but convos aren’t happening the way they should @alison_brenner@dreuland. Out today in @JAMAInternalMed: https://t.co/51FGQXHd7k
We will be celebrating the great work of our staff and community partners all week as part of National Health Center week. #RCCHCGreatThings https://t.co/i6WKSgrYhj
UPDATE: Republicans rejected our motion to adjourn until Monday so senators could read the bill they just introduced.
RT If you think senators should have time to read a bill that affects every single American.
And how about... think of doctors as more than data entry technicians. #EpicUGM needs to make it more user friendly, less cause of burn-out. https://t.co/XcsO4tBw7N
