Our Vice Chair for Faculty Affairs & Development Deepak Sharma @deepak_neuro shares his expertise in transcranial Doppler ultrasound at @SNACCNeuro #SNACC2026!
Great fun teaching the Transcranial Doppler ultrasound workshop at #SNACC2026 @SNACCNeuro. Good to see the enthusiasm from attendees from across the world. As the robotic TCD becomes more popular, clinicians should still have basic skills. #neuroanesthesia #anesthesia

"Mother Mayo" said my photo was officially expired. 👵🏼🏢 After almost 15 years, it was finally time for a new one. Same dedication, just a slightly newer badge! #Anesthesia #TimeFlies

Wright Lassiter III, President and CEO of CommonSpirit Health, placed responsibility for costs on commercial and government payers, noting that billing for Medicare Advantage patients is approximately 25% more expensive than traditional Medicare, and that his system is facing $4.3 billion in unpaid MA claims. He also noted insufficient payments for Medicare and Medicaid patients.

American healthcare spending has increased steadily for decades. The ACA was written by health insurers to enrich themselves, not improve access to high-quality, affordable care.
We need real reform that puts patients before greedy health-insurer profits.

I am proud to have reintroduced the bipartisan HOPE Act to conduct comprehensive examinations of veterans who have been affected by opioid addiction.
Veterans sacrifice so much to protect this nation. They deserve to be fought for by Congress.
