Have you ever really tried to shop around for care at a #hospital ? Pricing info available to consumers has, quite frankly, been nonsense. A new federal rule aims to change that, but hospitals aren't (yet?) "playing ball." My HealthDataBuzz post explains.

@Indu_MSCoach So, I asked neuro re the chills... She says temp disregulation is a thing, but it's almost always related to heat intolerance. It can be related to cold, but the effect is not feeling cold when you shouldn't. It's temporary worsening of MS symptoms, similar to heat.

@Indu_MSCoach Wait, what? 20+ yrs and I didn't know this? 75F now and I have on woolies. Some nights are nearly unbearably cold, think chattering teeth. Sigh. Putting it on the list for next ofc visit. The gift that keeps giving. Thank you.

@MulSclerosis I hate the comments: "I knew someone with MS...they were not even able to walk. You should get a second opinion." Or, "You have MS? But you seem fine to me."

@FakingWellness Honestly, I usually fall sleep...I was so asleep last time when the tech checked on me that it startled me. #msfatigue

@Brandon_Beaber @SciTechDaily1 @justsaysinmice Pull back the curtain on what's going on in a standard MS ofc visit. What do you track? What data do you collect? (EDSS, PDSS?) What about subjective observations? How do you use it over time? Thinking re pt care, not quality measures etc. but others might want that info too. TY!

@timkmak Luna and I hope you are on the mend soon. Try not to worry too much about your insurance. If it's an employer plan or Obamacare, you will likely be covered in the end.

@mikutaxfraud @danny_mothers @OuchThatsSharp @RedSquareBear @MW4Liberty @DarrigoMelanie It could be argued that modernity is a problem. But we can't just stop - any of it - taxes, electric utilities, infrastructure writ large. The genie is out of the bottle.

@dachshund_owner Congrats. He looks like a Dennis to me. Enjoy every moment. It goes so fast.

Looks like 2022 was a big year for #Health plan #MemberEngagement. In 7th annual survey, @Engagys found more than half of plans increased outreach budgets, spending more to meet higher member experience expectations. There's more: https://t.co/ScQptsCx0Q

@AMLandryMD Is this to suggest ppl have wised up about deep-fried turkey?

[Gina Veazey @ginaveazey]

@SeaZenArt @mhdksafa @NautyAssgirl Mmmmm... I don't disagree w this,but boys have moms and other female influences in their lives. These women are in position to do us all a solid, teach boys good coping skills and cultivate capacity for empathy. :)

@mikergoldberg Heartbreaking info on situation in Miss. for hospitals, more so for fetal, newborn & maternal care. In context of state's abortion laws, this is shameful. TY for your coverage of this important story.

@ProjectLincoln Top 3:
1) He is NOT running for POTUS. ✌️
2) He is turning over his taxes. 📄
3) He is starting a new political party, its mascot is a snake 🐍 (Rs have been disloyal after all).

@LaVieMDofficial Nice, and I think you may have meant "breathe deeply." Just sayin'. (I know, this is evidence that I need to take a deep breath.) 😉
