Doctor and advocate. GoFundMe is not a substitute for a healthcare system. Medicare, and I cannot stress this enough, for all.

As a 3rd year med student I was paired to work one-on-one with an attending for a week. She was murdered by her husband the day after my rotation ended. When I found out I asked my school what I should do & they told me the best thing was to just focus on school & working harder.

What experience in the workplace radicalized you?

These medical students have been doing the work of MDs with decades of war operating experience. It is shameful they are likely being tortured right now when they should be praised and celebrated for stepping up, unpaid, and doing life-saving work for half a year.

UPDATE: After an enormous outcry, Cigna has reversed their unconscionable last-minute denial and will be covering Carole's transplant (!!). Carole is extremely relieved, and she's grateful to the many, many people who emailed Cigna over the past 24 hours. Having said that...

Osama was a brilliant med student in #Gaza, he was killed + many of his family (Abu Safia). Osama had a dream to come to the US for his training; he posted earlier that he passed the #USMLE exam, but his dreams were buried before they became a reality #NotATarget #MedTwitter

Earlier this month an Illinois physician learned her ER as getting a new boss. He called himself "Doctor George." And he was *deeply* unhappy with her failure to do Medicare fraud. A thread on the chaotic collapse of a(nother) private equity ER operator prospect.org/health/2023-07…

When I make videos about the US healthcare system, I try to do it in a way that is accessible to everybody. If you do advocacy work, please feel free to use these videos in presentations or send them to your Congress person. Keep advocating. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

How much do hospitals receive from the government to train residents? It depends. There are multiple funding streams and the formulae are complicated. But here, a consulting firm did the math... …and estimated that, in 2019, the average Medicare subsidy was $145,435/resident.

BREAKING: Physicians in New York City are on strike for the first time in 33 years. 150 trainee doctors walked out on strike today at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens. They're pushing back against the low pay residents get for extremely long hours and grueling work.
