@SeemaCMS @foxandfriends One big thing you could do is eliminate the restrictions on providing video virtual visits - allow doctors who have this capability see Medicare patients on a HIPAA compliant live video platform to keep seniors from going out to see their doctors! Reimburse at the in-office rate

My Friend Dr Jerome Adams @Surgeon_General, it's Dr Scott Sanders from the @TheISMA I have a suggestion to help keep our seniors at home during this crisis - have Medicare cover follow-up video virtual visits at the same rate as in-office visits @SeemaCMS

#Migraine History Linked to Increase in All-Cause Dementia Risk https://t.co/pID2YVyZGn via @neuroadvisor All the more reason to do what you can to avoid triggers for migraine and consider a preventative medication if migraines are frequent enough

Even this study UNDERestimates the number of people suffering from Vestibular Migraine as they required "yes" to the question ‘‘Do migraine headaches happen around the same time as your dizziness?” MOST who have vestibular migraine do NOT have headaches with dizziness!

[Vestibular Disorders @vestibularveda]

“Vestibular Migraine is one of the most prevalent causes of dizziness in the United States, is underdiagnosed, and causes significant impairment of quality of life,” concluded the authors of a recent research study. https://t.co/1exEMsZalA

@AmaalStarling I registered for the headache symposium March 2019 in Phoenix - looking forward to meeting you!

Glad to see fewer patients with #BPPV (positional vertigo) being treated with meclizine - unfortunately more are having unnecessary CT or MRI scans... https://t.co/vPLBT5VQNZ

@Allscripts Another terrible day with Allscripts EHR - yesterday, no faxes came through and multiple eRxs failed - today, unable to use our system at all for the first hour of clinic, then it was extremely SSLLOOWW for another 6 hours!

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial art that involves low-impact and slow-motion exercises. It improves balance, flexibility, mental agility, and reduces falls. https://t.co/VQIj8W0vD7 via @Harvard

My answer to When I lay down on the bed and close my eyes and roll them upwards, why does that make me dizzy? I then I have to raise up a little to get to go away. https://t.co/xu8OoOKzN7

[Dr Scott Sanders, MD @neuroop]

There are several common #migraine triggers - KEEP A DIARY of food consumed and when, sleep patterns, weather changes, light, noise and smell exposure, stress and hormone cycles to figure out YOUR triggers - https://t.co/DcKXJHADeF

@sciencegeek4759 There are lots of causes for vestibular syndrome - the "virus" cause in humans is usually referred to as vestibular neuritis or labyrinthitis (if also hearing loss). https://t.co/e8wQQ5E0l7

Earth-shattering News 😜 - "The USPSTF recommends exercise interventions to prevent falls in community-dwelling adults 65 years or older who are at increased risk for falls" - doesn't it always boil down to a healthy diet and exercise? https://t.co/IQ5h4Y4AVk

[Dr Scott Sanders, MD @neuroop]

The #Epley maneuver is a highly successful treatment for #BPPV, which causes brief, positionally-provoked vertigo, such as lying down, rolling over or getting up from bed, looking up or down. https://t.co/eDpPSCSjdf
