Thanks Adam Beckman MD for this 🧵 One of the concerns with pay for performance is that it can distribute payment according to population characteristics as opposed to quality of care for a given population Should we worry less about this in attempts to "pay for equity"? Well...

The use of race in clinical risk models is heavily debated. While race-aware models can be more accurate, some are concerned about reinforcing racialized views of medicine. In our paper in Annals of Int Med, we offer a new perspective on this debate. 🧵👇 annals.org/aim/article/do…

This is a false boogeyman. Both Sanders’s and Warren’s proposals allowed supplemental private coverage. Just like the single-payer systems in the U.K., Spain, etc., do. elizabethwarren.com/plans/m4a-tran…

A “free market” for less expensive health services might improve prices, but it would shut a ton of people out of care. People skip even high-value care when it costs a bit more. Esp. low-income folks. Is our goal just low prices or getting the right care to the right people?
