“On average, $1 is leveraged to abolish $100 in medical debt, and every donation through this page will be used to directly abolish medical debt in Georgia” would love to see the ATL/GA medical communities help get this done #medtwitter#IDtwitter@docwithapurpose@gradydoctor
Y'all ready to do some good?
Medical debt is an unacceptable burden. No one should have it hanging over their head.
How I'd Fix Atlanta has partnered with @RIPMedicalDebt to wipe out debt in ATL and beyond.
Give what you can. Tell everyone you know.

1. In @medpagetoday Dan Resnick and I wrote about the disregard for incarcerated patient rights and dignity in hospital settings. My hope is that more healthcare workers will engage with why this happens and push their institutions to change. @genevievefri https://t.co/owBRaxZAwR
“Our duty is to our patient. We must do everything in our collective power to build an environment that honors their rights and dignity.” Check out this article by my amazing former coresidents @mspencer22 and Dan Resnick about substandard care of incarcerated patients
.@mspencer22 with another great piece … this time focusing on how hospitals regularly ignore the rights of incarcerated patients and what they can do better ⬇️

@carlynharris One of the best students I’ve worked with - I still remember how hard you worked to get one of our patients primary and subspecialty care & food access despite a ton of barriers and how you followed up well after hospital d/c to make sure it happened. Excited you’re applying IM!
