@BCBSAssociation @BCBSTX What kind of CRIMINAL org have you become? My children are severely disabled, & when we switched to BCBS you deny their LIFESAVING meds, wheelchairs, and now a standing frame for vital weightbearing! THESE ARE MEDICALLY NECESSARY but all you do is DENY!

Low implementation of the transparency & openness promotion (TOP) standards by physical therapy journals - however the higher the TOP score, the higher the impact factor of the journal @leighdpt @jlyoung2 @BellinCollegePT

@DerekGriffin86 @AdamMeakins @DerekGriffin86 your correct we cannot extrapolate but I wouldn't say it tells us nothing. In those with greater levels of disability that adaptive approach faired better

@backinmotiontt @DptScott1996 @APTAtweets im biased, but stuff like this https://t.co/VWDQYqIBRU
ads across all social platforms, commercials, radio etc etc. I know a lot of that is being done, and I think the times square ad is cool, just wondering what it costs and how effective it is compared to the other stuff

[Eric Chaconas PT PhD @echaconas]

@DptScott1996 @APTAtweets I was wondering the same thing. We need PR and branding like this you just always have to wonder the ROI compared to other forms of digital marketing

Approx 40% of patients with knee #osteoarthritis use opioids; as many as 10% long term. We have no idea if #KneeReplacement surgery reduces long-term opioid use. No one tracks this!

I’m a Physician and let me tell you an insider secret.

A lot of the Medical Establishment is TERRIFIED of people who are healthy, well-informed, take great care of their own bodies, and very hesitant to take any drugs.

PLEASE be that person.

[Dan Rhon @danrhon]

Adherence to CPGs for LBP is often seen as a mark of high-quality care. But how easy is it to adhere to guidelines in real-world clinical practice? If you're a #physicaltherapist seeing LBP, please consider giving a few minutes to share your thoughts https://t.co/Q08Qepb3Kb

It is well known that using sham for OMT studies is questionable at best. Read this https://t.co/TEs26Jg6Se and this https://t.co/wERVZTlElY if you want a better perspective.
