Aw jeez, not this again. According to this consultant, hospitals now *lose* an average of $304,312 per physician per year. 🤦🏻 Guess it’s time for another thread on Budgetary Gerrymandering.

Doctors, don’t ever let a hospital claim they are losing money on your salary. If you’re employed and they are just comparing professional fee collections to your paycheck, they’re trying to trick you. You generate far more revenue than your professional fees. There’s the

Wow- look at the life expectancy for American Indians and Alaska Natives. It’s dropped below 65! 🤯😢 Seriously, until as a country we turn this around, they shouldn’t have to pay into social security or Medicare-they aren’t living long enough to collect it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Fun fact: Although scientific journals have existed since the 1600s, external peer review only became standard in the 1970s. (So yeah… Einstein’s theories, Watson & Crick’s double helix, penicillin, insulin, etc. - all published without helpful comments from Reviewer 2.)

Articles like this wear me out. It comes so close to discussing real problems - then parrots back the same platitudes. Do we *really* need more doctors? Or do we need a system that incentivizes doctors to practice in the ways/places we need, instead of doing the very opposite?

When I first started residency, I thought "oh p16 block +... HPV infection!💡" Then I saw other non-HPV entities that were p16+ (eg liposarcoma) p16=a surrogate for HPV infection: E7 protein HPV -> inactivate RB -> p16 +++ But other tumors can also inactivate Rb -> p16+++

I highly recommend trying Open Evidence AI. It deals solely with medical questions and is available only to physicians. It is affiliated with the New England Journal of Medicine and Elsevier Publishing. I have been impressed with its performance. In July 2023, OpenEvidence's AI
