@jaketapper@UMich Thanks goodness Alice survived her encounter with diagnostic error. Jake has it right - there are too many of these! Dx error is a top 10 cause of death in the US. We're working to change that. CIDM - https://t.co/bhO2nY6ecY
Good 1st day at #DEX24 thank u @UCSF_CoDEx @andrewolsonmd & team for giving us an opportunity to meet in person! @MarkGraber - quarter of a century of your relentless dedicated championship is incredible! #diagnosticsafety
Highlight of the day- kiss from Willie as meeting ended.
Very exciting news! I was awarded with a Vidi grant by @ZonMw & @NWONieuws. I’m looking forward to the next 5 years during which I'll work on improving the diagnostic process by studying the best strategies for physicians to collaborate with AI.

Congratulations and thanks to Ben Rosner and the UCSF team for compiling all of these resources. Improving calibration would be a HUGE help in addressing diagnostic error, and GoodDx has all the tools and ideas you'd need to help make that happen.#improvedx;

@drsanjaygupta@jaketapper I'm so sorry to hear of Alice's ordeal from delayed diagnosis of her ruptured appendix. This shouldn't have happened. But it does - diagnostic errors are responsible for hundreds of deaths every day in the US. Learn more at https://t.co/JTXt9o0EHM. @ImproveDX
One area with clear progress where diagnosis is improving: derm diseases in skin of color - thanks to Dr Aliya Courtney Hines for reviewing this field at the 2022 SIDM conference. @ImproveDX
Congratulations to Dr Dhara Amin - the inaugural recipient of SIDM’s Emerging Leader (Rising Star) Award, and Dan Berg, inaugural recipient of the 2022 Award for Patient and Family Engagement”. @ImproveDX
Wonderful new tools from AHRQ to improve diagnosis in a project coordinated by @HardeepSinghMD and Chris Goeschel - MeasureDx, CalibrateDx, Team STEPPS for diagnosis, new patient tools and a series of issue briefs. @ImproveDX
SIDM’s conference theme this year is ‘The Future of Medicine”. One highlight are presentations from med students on their thoughts on this. Here is Andrew Boeing’s project - reflecting on our digital future. @ImproveDX
Senator Amy Klobuchar addressing our SIDM Diagnostic Error Conference & telling her story of her almost-delayed diagnosis of breast cancer: She put off getting her mammogram because of COVID. Don’t put off screening tests!
SIDM Conference opening session focuses on disparities in health care, a critical issue for us in our work to improve diagnosis. Oprah’s film highlights the problems and the opportunities to address the problem.
Recognizing Excellence in Diagnosis - a new report by @LeapfrogGroup with 29 recommended practices hospitals can implement to improve diagnostic safety.
Next step-national pilot to survey hospitals on their implementation status in fall 2022. Join us!

@HardeepSinghMD@LeapfrogGroup@leahbinder@JMatthewAustin@ImproveDX@MooreFound @AHRQNews This is BIG! Aside from a few pioneering HCO’s, most of the 5000 others have yet to address diagnostic error. The new Leapfrog recommended practices give them a place to start, AND the incentive (thx to benchmarking) to get going!
