Alex Peltz, whose attention to detail is unsurpassed; and last but certainly not least Steve Asch, whose incisive and pithy comments always propel research progress and with whom I happily continue a 17-year (!) collaboration. It's a true pleasure doing research with this group. 18/n

Lastly, this was a huge labor of love (and blood and sweat and tears) – we’ve been working on this solidly for 3 years. I’m incredibly fortunate to do it with the very best team, most of whom are not on BlueSky but deserve shoutouts anyway: 16/n

Results have particular policy relevance for the bipartisan Chronic Disease Management Act – which really needs to be discussed more in Congress! We hope our results can help inform this legislation. 15/n
