@Costco A lady who works for @Costco in Fullerton CA location identified a bag of orange not looking super fresh. Because of it, we decided to take it out of our shopping cart. Really appreciate such caring, detail-oriented, and kind Costco employees. We love you!
@farzyness@farzyness do you think you will ditch CPA for next tax filing? Just gotta check the cutoff date during pre-training, as the tax code evolves over time.
Talking to independent physicians, it's obvious that the big insurance carriers are doing to them, what their PBMs are doing to independent pharmacies.
They deny, underpay, slow pay, clawback, and create administrative mazes, knowing their victims don't have the time or resources to fight.
Why ? By putting financial pressures on physicians and pharmacies, it makes them more likely to sell their businesses to them , close their doors, or refer the business to their captive pharmacy or provider. All benefitting the biggest insurance companies
We need to ditch the concept of "claims" and make every delivery of medications or care as a billable event that must, by law, be paid on a timely basis , with interest charges for any delays. If the physician or pharmacy doesn't deliver , the carrier has plenty of legal options already. As does the patient.
This is not an efficient market. This is the big guy abusing the little guy. It needs to change to better the care we get in this country
A Harvard student told me something I can't stop thinking about. When they go to the library, every single screen has ChatGPT open. Homework that used to take hours now takes minutes.
But then they talk to alums who say entry-level roles are basically gone. The jobs they planned their entire college trajectory around don't exist anymore.
AI made homework easier but made proving you deserve a job exponentially harder.
