Today is #MelanomaMonday, a day to raise awareness about this aggressive form of #skincancer that kills more than 9,000 people a year in the United States. Take these simple precautions and see a dermatologist if you notice any changes in your skin. #SkinCancerAwarenessMonth

Selfie with the @GWpublichealth Health Policy Fellows- we had a GREAT conversation on a range of health and leadership topics, and I’m confident there was a future Surgeon General (and several future State Health Officers) in this crowd! @GWSMHS @GWtweets

Of all the “jobs” I have—doctoring, teaching in clinic, lecturing, advising, local and national committee-ing—I only get paid for one (doctoring).
Why is this Academic #PrimaryCare?
Follow the money.

This 👇🏼is the most important thread you should read this week. Maybe this year. Specialists are important (just ask them) but their complexity is not greater than primary care.
OK, here are my issues with this paper, list style

Most of what I say here has been voiced by others... As @mikejohansen2 notes, the comment thread on this article is excellent, see examples from Stange, Etz, Katerndahl, Peek

Patient perspective: "I would rather be shamed in the doctor's office when it's just the doctor and me then get to the pharmacy and find out that my Rx is $100 and I can't afford it." #costofcare
GW Primary Care retweeted
Not only do patients need transparency about #costofcare, physicians do too - many physicians want to help their patients but don't actually have the information available to share.
GW Primary Care retweeted
About 80-90% of patients want to know what they will probably pay in out-of-pocket costs for their treatment. Patients not only DESERVE to know, they WANT to know. #costofcare
