The full quote expands on this. Gender-affirming care, in addition to the hormone therapy or surgery that initially comes to mind, includes addressing all of the logistical barriers in place to living life as your most authentic self

This is my Grandma Betty, [redacted] years old. My grandfather passed away pre-COVID, so she’s been on her own in a senior community north of London for the last year and today she got her 2nd vaccine dose! She got the jab!!

Baked a challah for the first time last night and now we have the first Jewish Second Gentleman-Elect. Coincidence???

A brief reprieve from the news of the day:

I am so, so proud of Katie Kuppersmith, the newest pediatric resident at @LurieChildrens! At a time when we need our healthcare system the most, we’re all lucky to have you on the front lines.

Half the fun of @Imperfectfruit is finding out why the produce you ordered couldn’t be sold in grocery stores. Normal-sized red onion for scale

Or, you can be the site of care that your physicians *want* to send their patients to and work to understand how to gain the trust from docs that you're providing higher-value care. Waiving facility fees, like this system did for newly-acquired radiology centers, is a good start!

Love this new price transparency tool - see where utilizing an ASC can save Medicare, patients, and points out where we're incentivizing patients to go to the higher-cost site of care

For example, Medicare would save $27k...if a patient paid an extra $22k

Genuinely wondering what tipped off Facebook that someone tried to hack my account - login from Russia, or Internet Explorer?

Well, this is a super concerning event that appeared on my personal calendar. What do I even do with this?

I'm not 100% sure this alumni event is real but yes I've already registered

A steal at twice the price!
