I lived in CT when Newtown happened. It still haunts me today. And we learned nothing. My heart breaks for the families who lost a child today. My sadness is only eclipsed by my anger that nothing will change and all we will hear are empty platitudes.
Program design is vital. Stricter BPCI-A requirements associated with 1 out of 3 dropping out. As CMS moves towards mandatory programs they need to design programs that work for providers and patients. link.springer.com/article/10…
How do I get these fake journals to stop spamming my inbox to submit an article. I get at least 5-7 a day. Most go to my spam folder but some make my inbox. It feels like the academic version of the extended car warranty phone calls.

Which primary care practices take Medicaid? We know surprisingly little! New work shows practices with no Medicaid are more often small, independent, in non-expansion states, urban. Also, fewer population health capabilities. Led by @stevenspivack! 1/6

I can’t think of a more striking example of white supremacy than the juxtaposition of this display of sedition and anarchy and the Black Lives Matters demonstrations. How can you witness this and believe white privilege isn’t real? Will @TomCottonAR call for the military now?

Excited to share our paper (@valeriealewis @HectorR48771734 Genevra Murray) on characteristics of primary care practices without Medicaid revenue. Far too many Medicaid enrollees are still facing challenges with practices not accepting Medicaid.

One more thing France does better than the US. We should be doing a lot more for our mothers who sacrifice so much, vox.com/2014/5/12/5708362/ho…
How you could work in the healthcare industry and not have patients' best interests in mind? Disgusting:nytimes.com/2014/05/09/nyreg…
Hospital readmission rates continue to drop, hopefully leading to better patient care: innovation.cms.gov/Files/rep…
Fun bedside reading tonight - MedPAC March 2014 report: medpac.gov/documents/Mar14_E…
Interesting article showing that increase in obs stays do not fully explain drop in readmission rates: cms.gov/mmrr/Briefs/B2014/MM…
