Am I the only person who didn’t know that receiving prior authorization from an insurance company for a test or procedure doesn’t mean they agree to actually pay for it???

Denying coverage doesn’t increase insurers’ profits? So they’re just doing it for funsies? Sad

Guys, it feels weird to post this here, but... it's the anniversary of the first human-to-human heart transplant! Technically, I'm a day late as it's already Dec. 4 in Cape Town, South Africa, where on Dec. 3, 1967, the heart of Denise Darvall (25) was placed into the chest of Louis Washkansky (56).

What the hell is a “convenience fee” for and why are so many businesses levying one these days? “You can place an order in person for free or you can use our app but it will cost you a dollar more.”

Hey, @jtrebach.bsky.social. I've mostly been hanging out on Reddit lately but this guy who took a bite out of some random wild fruit before thinking to ask what it was made me think of you! I don't think anyone ever figured out what it was...

I wish someone had told me that half of the job of being the dad is eating the family’s leftovers before they go bad.

Forget hoarding hydroxychloroquine, it’s time to start hoarding MMR.

At one point, I was “known” for sharing interesting bits of medical history, mostly related to cardiology. That and starting an internet debate about how to resuscitate a centaur.

Isn’t there some button I can click to automatically follow all my old Twitter followers who are joining Bluesky?

I can’t decide whether this message printed on a Lululemon bag is inspirational or just depressing.
