It is 2025, and * bless * 🙏, #EDboarding (actually, “HOSPITAL Boarding in the ED”‼️ to be exact) is FINALLY part of a key hospital safety rating… @leapfroggroup I feel so seen. @ACEPNation @EmergencyDocs https://t.co/VVu3kfPSpU https://t.co/GGgsWq4UBX

Little secret of health IT: Most hospitals go on downtime for daylight savings transitions because none of their EMRs have perfected the hour +/- at 2AM…and issues like time between meds/labs/images/procedures that cross 2AM may be highly impactful to patients. So we fall

Pro: applying to 18 residencies will be drastically cheaper Con: we are still tied to an archaic system where you have to apply to 18 programs just to end up at one…#match 🙄

Sara Dimeo, MD, MEHP @sara_dimeo

One tidbit of exciting news for medical students: almost all EM programs will be officially transitioning to residencyCAS for the 2025-2026 application season….where the cost for up to 18 applications is <$100!

Some predictions on what’s coming in #healthcare with Dr. Michael Granovsky on @acepnow #Nowcast: -Dr. Oz (yup, TV Dr. Oz) is up for head of @CMSGov which heads @MedicareGov and @MedicaidGov. Presuming he is confirmed (which is very probable), we are in for a lot of changes.

If only people realized the idiocy in insurance approvals and how those delays PROLONG $$$$$ hospital stays… When there are great, cost-effective options OUTSIDE of the hospital that are just tied up waiting for insurance to approve… -IV meds -home O2 -rehab facilities /

We waited 6 days for insurance approval of home IV antibiotics. Which we completed inpatient while waiting 🤦‍♂️.

Few things: 1. The federal government is largely not funding our tuition. It’s why medical students have $200k of student debt on average. We already “refund” it in that we pay it back…with interest…🤨 2. 15 years of full time practice is around age 45 for most medical

Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. @RepGregMurphy

@GmOrr9000 It should be mandated that unless disabled, each medical school graduate should have to practice medicine FULL TIME for 15 years (minimum) or have to refund the Federal Government for the cost of tuition.

I don’t believe the “40% of med students don’t plan to practice” stat…but even if I did, here’s some more relevant stats. - the government has cut RVU reimbursement year over year, while inflation has only increased…in the past few years alone we took a double digit pay cut https://t.co/ZHheNWdMyy

Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. @RepGregMurphy

#1 reason for MD shortage is Med schools admitting students who aren’t going to practice. Only 60% of med students today plan on practicing clinical medicine. Med Schools need to focus on admitting students who want take care of patients, not just get their MD.

A few years ago, I was lobbying on the Hill. We were sitting in a Congressman’s lobby waiting to meet, and out came one of the snack/candy associations.
