But yet they always seem to cover five dollars worth of routine care or meds. Does anyone ever ask why they do that but won’t cover the stuff they should cover? Hmmmmm

A great listen about the horrible games that insurers are playing to avoid paying for care - #LetsFixThat with #DirectCare kffhealthnews.org/MTYwMTY2MQ via @kffhealthnews



No it’s not. It’s broken for the patients and doctors and nurses et al. It’s working exactly the way you and your cronies have allowed it to the whole time you’ve been in office.People allowed to make billions while they provide zero care or value.And who decided it is a “right”?

The American health care system is broken. We spend 2x more per capita than most other countries, for worse outcomes. A rational health care system provides health care as a human right, not huge profits for insurance companies & pharmaceutical industry. pressherald.com/2024/05/18/ber…



Sometimes the problems that are made to seem so complex are fixed with the simplest of solutions. Quote me on this.

Here are ten outstanding reasons to obtain a subscription to a Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice: 1. Enhanced access to primary care: DPC practices typically offer extended and unhurried appointments, ensuring patients have ample time with their primary care provider. 2.…

Just a repeat lesson for people that I will continue to remind everyone about: if you use your health insurance to pay for things that are truly inexpensive and affordable please do not complain about the costs of your premiums and your deductibles going up every year. #econ101


Is there a weekly injectable medication that cures selective outrage, cognitive dissonance and anti-semitism all at the same time? If so I’d give it out like candy. Cost be damned

Lessons: -work for yourself. -Don't take a penny from the government. -Don't take a penny from an insurance carrier. -If a patient doesn't value your services, fire them -build your practice to fit your lifestyle - work on your business not just in it -there is no help coming


I’m so melancholy haha. I would have put on my happy face if I knew @ESilvermanMD was watching me :) great article. This is the only way we fix primary care and healthcare in general #bottomupfix #tellmewrong

Wonderful article on #dpc from @ESilvermanMD Nice profiles/comments from Vance Lassey, Dr Ryan @NeuCare, @DrQiu, Garrison & Erika Bliss, Brandon & Nick @AntiochMed, Jeff @GoldDirectCare Really great Direct Primary Care profile.

But what do we know?? We needed Harvard who does not even have a Family Medicine Dept to prove it :)

Like I said, get an independent primary care doc working for you or your employees; Harvard Study show you'll save money. @DutchRojas @dpcalliance @AAPSonline @GoldDirectCare @dpcnews1



See LASIK eye surgery. This is how normal economics work. It’s not complicated

Price transparency for the win. Competition results in lower prices and higher quality outcomes. The more physicians and medical professionals make their prices public the better chance we have for affordable and accessible care. #healthcare

If you want to know why employers must provide benefits. If you want to know why employer benefits rise year over year. If you want to know why hospital consolidation increases prices. If you want to know why carriers have laws written in their favor. Not #healthcare

Not going to doctors and nurses and social workers

Not #healthcare Want to know where the dollars are going for the 99% under 500k of income per annum? UHC and Medicare.

..for a 50 dollar X-ray or a medicine that costs five dollars cash for a 90 day supply please DO NOT complain about the cost of your premiums and other out of pocket costs your “insurance” requires of you.And for those on Medicare that say “I paid into it”…thing of your kids+gk


1/2 Todays public education: Every thing you bill insurance for in regard to your health insurance results in an increase in next years premium, deductible, copay etc. There is no free ride folks. So when you decide to use insurance to pay for 20-30 dollars worth of blood work..


Stop feeding these pigs

What he says. There may not be the “data” that direct care works the way the people listed in this tweet want it to but 1. Maybe that is a great thing and 2. There is plenty of evidence and data that the system they built and try to keep up totally sucks for a majority of America

3 real reasons experts in healthcare do not think direct care works. 1. They work for a carrier (insurance). 2. They work for a hospital (Higher the prices, the higher the premiums). 3. They are policy wonks. (Politicians and academics with no experience). #healthcare



bostonglobe.com/2023/02/05/met… @ByJessBartlett @MassAFP when the press and other organizations mentioned in this piece want to start discussing solutions rather than the same old problems that have existed in primary care for decades feel free to reach out to me. Happy to chat n refute
