@txmedai @nikillinit Those look like great doctors. I'm going to fly out there next month for my colonoscopy. Going to have to prep on the plane. Should be interesting.

@independentMDs Our admin complaining that we are drinking too many @MonsterEnergy and they threatened to cut us off. Do they want any work to get done around here or not?

@shycollie @EPotterMD But really none of this should exist. There should be no preauth required for inpt or outpt or anything. Surgeon decides what is medically necessary, provides the care and insurance pays per contracted rate.

@DrAJ26001405 @generalorthomd @OrthopodReg @traumaticum @orthobullets For truly no displaced fx I think your protocol is good but I don't repeat CT until 12 weeks. Just follow with xrays. This has some displacement as noted by the gapping of the dorsal cortex. Retrograde screw would allow less immobilization and likely decreased nonunion rate.

@medbrisbon @AmerUrological @UrologyUnbound Ortho needs you. You would likely match based on the rows alone. But may need to submit squat and deadlift data.

@rkh_md @Markroot14 Incisional vac is great for total elbow. Love them on integra or split thickness graft

@olsonplanner My wife and I own and manage rental income. It is not passive, but a way to diversify, reduce tax burden and employ our kids. Definitely not passive and questionably better than just investing broadly.

@EdGainesIII Is there any possibility to pass lasting legislation so physicians are not up for a cut every year? This is a crazy system. If CMS is short for the year they cut physicians instead of an across the board cut to hospitals and Medicare Advantage?

@pratikorho @PedsOrthoCenter @Pedsorthobklyn @PedsOrthoGirl @PedsOrthoNYUHCH @PedsOrthoUva @orthotraumamd @traumaticum @InvictaOrtho I like this for a pediatric patient. Race between healing and displacement, but I think patient will win.

@KristinNCrooks @noahkaufmanmd Great comment. The value is just not there for so many people. I'm self employed and for my family 27k a year premium and 7k deductible, for what?

@bfhermann @generalorthomd Right. When did hand and pediatric ortho become a different field than orthopedics.
