@kevinmd This is the truth. There are times and places for care teams but NOTHING will ever replace a consistent trusted continuity with your physician. #somuchmedicalwaste
HT @DavidESmitty@kevinmd clinical friends please read this short article- “The result is a widespread clinician predisposition to undertreat pain or even to desert patients who need higher doses of prescription opioids.
That predisposition can kill patients if you indulge it.”
"If you are a clinician and you thought you were justified in withholding opioid treatment from people in agony because of “risks,” then it is time for you to think again."

@IAmPoliticsGirl Well-stated. To add, what’s crazy is to expect “John Barron” to do or say anything truthfully. To expect a sociopath’s manipulations to make logical sense beyond self-serving exploitation is futile. Essence doesn’t change except in small increments thru ownership & major work.
@SydneyLWatson@Skulldrey Self employed here. Fortunately hubs has large employer & we have excellent health insurance. Good thing- I’ve been sick as heck for the last three years. W/O excellent health insurance would be dead. Not saying it should or shouldn’t be. I want everyone to get care they need.
@RepJasonSmith@statesdj This “gotcha”soundbite is a perfect example of why healthcare & politics are both so ineffectual in the US. The systems function exactly as designed & incentivized to work. Demonizing the “other” as “the problem” is unhelpful and distracting. Solutions demand collaboration.

@kevinmd On the mark based on my past experience. 99% x peer to peer -yes to appropriate plan by 1. knowing what criterion the reviewer needs documented & 2. Decent social & emotional interpersonal awareness. Sometimes, you do everything right & still a no, though, which is infuriating.
@EPotterMD That is ridiculous. HE needs to escalate the case & decision. If he’s not qualified to approve it, he sure ask heck isn’t qualified to deny it.
@alt_w_v_g@LeeAase My company provides team coaching to c-suites executives and their teams in healthcare. You have captured the essence of each healthcare interaction I have had over the past 20 years. That analyst lives in my head! Well done 😁.
@noahkaufmanmd@steveMmattison@KaufCare I did the same thing in 2008 then added a DBA when the time was right. I will be following & cheering you on. Doctors, patients & employers can align for health!
@mehdirhasan@RepSwalwell I didn’t even know who he was. Now in a week’s time he’s sure Bad Bunny broke FCC regs although he speaks no Spanish and has hot bothered to view the transcript, has been video taped allegedly cheat voting on the floor, and now this super xenophobic post. What an a hole.
@RepFine I’ll take what are things that ignorant racist say for a thousand Alex.
Or…
I’ll take what are impure thoughts that will require some explaining at the pearly gates for 1000, Alex.
