Nurses provide life-saving care and comfort during our most difficult and trying moments. With tremendous gratitude, we celebrate their sacrifice and service this National Nurses Day.

#FixUShealthcare US hospitals often have a bipartite system of care based on (or lack of) insurance & by extension-race. This discrimination is needed to tailor the best care for patients. We CAN do better! #EMBRACEsolutions #UnifiedHC_book Hopkins Press AMA ACC Advocacy

#FixUShealthcare Why can’t we separate HC from politics? In the US, politics is entrenched in our HC system. #MCR is overseen by POTUS & funded by Congress, so #M4A will not solve this. We must have independent oversight. #EMBRACEsolutions #UnifiedHC_book Physicians for a National Health Program AMA

Not all #HealthInsurance is created equally. Some are based on employment, some on age, income, disability, military service & race. What they aren’t based on is science. How about creating an evidence-based benefit system? #EMBRACEsolutions #UnifiedHC_book #FixUShealthcare

I explain in my op-ed in The Hill today how the concept of an independent National Medical Board (that I discuss in my book a.co/d/a6s6ShJ) may even help with the recent problem of federal courts reversing FDA decisions. Hopkins Press Jim Himes 🇺🇸🇺🇦 Chris Murphy 🟧 New Democrat Coalition (NDC)

Started my trip to Europe with a pea arrest on the plane. Found out planes not well equipped for CPAs. Emergency meds had one epi with 4 diazepams… Should there be standardized med list for airlines?

Q: Does the #SCOTUS decision about not serving #LGBT individuals mean that I, as a doctor, can refuse to treat a gay person? If no, what's different? If yes, can I also refuse to treat someone with a swastika tattoo or a MAGA hat? SCOTUSblog Doctors for America Cedric Dark, MD, MPH, FACEP

It seems that even having health insurance in the US doesn't guarantee one can afford good health. This cannot be fixed by piecemeal reforms, it requires a complete transformation. We need #EMBRACEsolutions New Democrat Coalition (NDC) ACC Advocacy AMA commonwealthfund.org/publications/s…
