Let’s be real. I spoke out against a big insurance company and now I’m being punished for it. But I’m not giving up. It’s not in my blood. I heard you asking, and if you would like to help, I’ve started a gofundme (linked below) where you can read the details and consider

Exactly this!!! We were duped. Told EMRs would allow doctors to communicate with each other about patients in all systems - instead EHRs have turned physicians & other healthcare workers into data entry clerks with endless clicking for billing purposes.

The AMA could also end its discriminatory “Maintenance of Certification” mandate created by its satellite orgs ABMS and American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) , but sides with hospital and insurance orgs via ACGME to perpetuate regulatory capture of doctors nationwide. 👇

Westby Fisher, MD ABMS American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) ACGME MOC has never been proven to improve patient care. Even when the AMA House of delegates voted to end MOC, it was crickets 🦗 kevinmd.com/2016/06/ama-ca…

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA You never want a physician who only follows Federal guidelines. We must know what they say and then decide if they are correct for our patients!

Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, MHA The same is true for investments in Electronic Health Records (EHR). Over $250 billion has been invested, yet the system remains dysfunctional. Any additional funding from Secretary Kennedy would simply be throwing good money after bad.

Totally understand why you’d think that—after all, Big Pharma does set the list price. But here’s where it gets tricky: PBMs like CVS Caremark profit more when that list price goes up. They demand rebates and kickbacks from manufacturers in exchange for preferred placement on

The affordable care act made it illegal for Medicare and Medicaid patients to go to physician owned hospitals, despite these being some of the most efficient and high quality facilities in the country. It was never about helping the poor and elderly. It was about control.

It’s almost BACK TO SCHOOL season!! Is your family ready?!? As a pediatrician/mom, I’ve partnered with SharedHealthMN to share 3 BIG reasons back to school immunizations are so important: *SEE REEL* #ad #SharedHealthMN #BackToSchool #VaccinesWork #VaccinesSaveLives #pediatrician

She's wrong. Look at generics. The USA is the cheapest of all western countries. Any brand drugs with competition would be far cheaper, with or without insurance , if the manufacturers were not terrified that the big PBMs would reduce their formulary availability as

Secretary Kennedy Skepticism toward powerful institutions can be valuable, but the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) distinguishes itself with 95 years of evidence-based vaccine recommendations grounded in ethics, not donor influence. Their advocacy for COVID-19 vaccines in high-risk infants is

Health Systems spent $300,000,0000 lobbying last year. Doctors spent time seeing patients. Guess who won?

Dutch Rojas The Big Health Cartel always wins…. Until the Army of Angry Patients rises up

Dutch Rojas You keep hearing that America doesn’t have enough doctors. That’s true, but here’s the part almost nobody knows: every year, about 20% of U.S. medical school graduates can’t even get a residency slot. Residency is the hands-on training you have to complete after med school

Story time: I went to DC in 2019 to try to meet with Congress members about No Surprises Act Not seeing patients for a couple days was a huge sacrifice but I thought well worth it given what was at stake: the future of private practice I had a PAC check from my specialty to

Physically painful to read this. It needs to stop. What the hell are we doing

The AMA has nothing to do with the number of Medical or residency slots. What you are experiencing is a result of the war on physicians that has led to 70% of physicians being employed. Legislation such as the HITECH Act and the Affordable Care Act have led to dramatic

Correct! I would add that hospital systems lobbied for and received higher tiered pricing than independent facilities/physicians and use that loot to hire...Uncle Sam has directly and indirectly undermined private practice...intentionally.

So thoughtful of ⁦American College of Cardiology⁩ to open our CMP #MOC testing window at 1 am. Who needs sleep when you can fill your days AND nights with more and more screen time! 👇
