With a change in administrations underway, I want to encourage anyone with even a passing interest in government service to make the leap.
I spent 2 very meaningful years working at U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) from 2009-2011.
Curious whether mask use during *strenuous* exercise would lead to a positive stimulation of erethropoesis (like what performance athletes do with high altitude training), albeit probably quite mild. https://t.co/RVwsDI5VpM
Today’s new Radiation Oncology (RO) model is expected to improve the quality of care for cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, allowing providers to focus on high-quality care while reducing #Medicare expenditures. https://t.co/7I4Mk5wIUk
@sartin_shannon Society of Actuaries puts out some great stuff, and while it gets deep quickly, they (usually) start from first principles. https://t.co/YOrpfPUH8K
If you're having trouble figuring out what 6 feet looks like between you and someone else, here's a familiar way to picture it. Rain, snow, or shine, we love our #icedcoffee in this town. #PhysicalDistancing#SocialDistancing

“I am excited that we have selected Brad to join the ranks of CMS and help us build on the important work the Trump Administration has undertaken to transform our healthcare system to deliver better value to patients.”
.@HHSGov and @CMSGov have announced that Brad Smith will serve as Director of the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation at @CMSGov and Senior Advisor for Value-Based Transformation.
Part of our efforts to drive high-quality care, in 2019, @CMSGov developed 12 new innovative payments models so reimbursement is tied to value, rather than volume of services!
From humble beginnings, this model continues to scale and evolve under Dr @awyliedo, Janet and an incredible team of clinicians @GeisingerHealth. Every program is different, but important to acknowledge pioneers like @AdamUSDFC for the business case to bringing back housecalls.
