The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel –

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.

Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Another damning example of gross procedural overuse in the treatment of #PAD from @propublica. These news articles call out #outliers- but this is becoming a pattern. #WeNeedToDoSomething #Appropriateness @VascularSVS @SIRspecialists @ACCinTouch

The private equity-owned anesthesia group billed Medicare 1.5 years after services were provided, so Medicare denied the claim. You might think the group would just eat the cost... but instead, they sent the bill to collections.

As a 3rd yr med student, I got the unsolicited (enraging, gendered) advice that going into surgery would make me a "bad wife & bad mom." 60% of participants delayed childbearing due to demands of medical training; >75% regretted this decision at least 'a little bit'.

Great presentation by @C_Flanagan_MD highlighting that women with aortic ectasia progress more rapidly to repair. Are our current surveillance guidelines appropriate for women? NB: These guidelines are informed by trials of mostly male patients. #VAM23 @UCSFvascular @KPDOR

So Merck has sued the Biden administration over the drug negotiation provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act. What’s it arguing? And are those arguments any good?

Some interesting ideas on how to shape Medicare's drug price negotiations such that we get the right medicines to patients, save tax dollars, and still maintain incentives for innovation.
