65 House cosponsors. Zero in the Senate.
The Patients First Act would tie doctors' Medicare updates to inflation, the way hospitals already get. Adjusted for practice costs, Medicare physician pay is down about a third since 2001.
House: H.R. 9693. Senate: S. 5672. Doctors, residents, med students: ask your House member and both senators to sign on. Template below. Takes 5 minutes.

Oral boards prep hasn't appreciably changed in decades, so I built MockUro, an AI examiner that walks you through ~250 canonical urology cases in Socratic Q&A format, grades your free-form answers across key domains, and adapts your study plan to your weak spots

Small-bites fascial closure after elective midline laparotomy reduced long-term risk and size of incisional hernia vs traditional large-bites technique, supporting small bites as standard practice for abdominal closure.

Want to know the craziest part about insurance company Pre Authorization Denials ?
The insurance company defines the network of providers the patient can use
When they deny care, they are effectively saying "we don't trust the judgement of the doctors we require you to use" 🤯🤯🤯
