Some news in the effort to ensure accountability and cost control in US health care. #pm760
Massachusetts — historically one of the states with the highest health costs — is getting aggressive in controlling them by restricting hospital growth. Will other states follow?

I would be remiss not to mention the public health emergency facing people capable of pregnancy at this critical juncture of judicial history. Overturning Roe means more tragic deaths and negative health outcomes, especially for the low-income and people of color. #PM760
If the SCOTUS affirms the leaked decision overturning abortion rights in the U.S., the effects would be sweeping for 40 million women in more than two dozen Republican-led states.

Maintaining equal access to abortion care is necessary for equality, bodily and reproductive autonomy, and the right to determine our own lives. #PM760
BREAKING: @SenSchumer just announced that the U.S. Senate will be taking another vote on #WHPA on Wednesday 5/11. For the first time in history, the Supreme Court could be on the verge of taking away a fundamental right. Congress can and MUST act to protect abortion access.
In a 4-7 vote, Louisiana’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill was stopped from advancing to the House floor. House Bill 837 will now circulate within the committee for research, but it is now dead - a victory for LGBTQ+ students in LA and across the nation. #PM760 https://t.co/2V3fi0PIST
Considering the draft of the SCOTUS decision to strike down Roe v Wade, it is a good time to point out that banning abortions would boost maternal mortality 21%. The U.S’s awful standing in this statistic compared to other nations will worsen #pm760 https://t.co/dTFSTAzhGP
There's a multitude of reasons why the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade will be harmful to many, especially marginalized populations. If you consider yourself an advocate for mental health, this is an issue you should care about and address in your advocacy work. #PM760
Safe abortion is mental health care.

Yet another exasperating example of why we need healthcare & further health insurance reform in the U.S. #PM760
Thursday I get the pleasure of a peer to peer call with an insurance company to appeal a denial for the ventilator my patient has used for the last 3 years
Yes, reader, you read that right

This is a huge step in expanding health insurance coverage for a historically neglected and marginalized group: unauthorized immigrants. Progress like this is often incremental, but it would be great to see coverage expanded to younger immigrants in CA soon. #PM760
Starting May 1, people who are low-income, unauthorized immigrants over age 49 became eligible for full #Medicaid health coverage, a significant milestone in California’s effort to expand coverage.

A KFF report published in March found just 11 states said they would use texting to alert Medicaid recipients about the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency. In contrast, 33 states plan to use snail mail alone, putting millions at risk of losing coverage. #PM760
Lower-income Americans are just as likely to have smartphones and cellphones as the general population, but most states can’t text Medicaid enrollees.

What are the consequences of poor health policy? Months after the near abortion ban, groups in Texas are working tirelessly to help those seeking emergency contraception. #PM760 https://t.co/FB3LZTBRnL
Firearms were the leading cause of U.S. children’s death in 2020. 65% were homicide related. We gun laws and policies are needed to address this public health issue. #pm760
Firearms overtook auto accidents as the leading cause of death in children https://t.co/8mhqjoqkKI
Emergency dept visits for teenage girls facing eating disorders doubled during the pandemic, yet a rural state like Montana only has TWO providers equipped to treat eating disorders. We NEED to urgently push the implementation of federal workforce development plans. #PM760
Treatment options for people with eating disorders are scarce in rural America. #RuralHealth

Important to keep an eye on how this situation (re: masks for travelers) develops. This case strikes at the heart of the tensions of federalism and challenges how much power federal agencies like the CDC actually have. Congress should clarify the CDC's authority. #PM760
Legal experts say a federal judge's decision to block the @CDCgov's mask mandate presents Congress with a chance to better outline the agency's public health powers. But could it pass?

Florida state health officials released “guidelines” that say youth should not receive gender-affirming treatments for gender dysphoria, including “social gender transitions.” Though the guidelines don’t carry legal weight, they are dangerous for trans youth. #PM760
Once again, Gov. DeSantis’ administration puts politics above the health of trans youth.
These “guidelines” discouraging gender-affirming care hold no legal weight, but it does cultivate a culture of fear in Florida for trans youth and their families. https://t.co/qGD4vdQFYj
In February 2022, 3.4 million more children were in in poverty than in December 2021. Manchin, work requirements, and the presumption of parents using the money to buy drugs, can all be accredited to the death of the child tax credit. #PM760 https://t.co/k4CcwoqedK
Given the recent decision that ends the federal mask mandate on transportation, grateful that the MBTA is continuing to protect all commuters. #pm760
Even if you're:
• Fully vaccinated
• Waiting inside a station
• Just going one stop
You're still required to wear a mask while on the T to #RideSafer.
😷 Forgot your mask? We've got you covered with free masks available at key stations: https://t.co/b7syTZT9w6
On this weeks episode of attacks on abortion rights, Kentucky. Abortion medication registry for physicians plus new patient reporting rules would force the states two remaining clinics to close. #PM760 https://t.co/wNZrwlZBIJ
Tweeting some big news from my hometown this week! The hospital I was born in is being acquired. Many excited for merger. Now with only 2 hospital systems in Syracuse, interesting to see how the market is affected & what input the FTC will give. #pm760 https://t.co/5ydEz1h1Iu
