RT @GrantGriffiths: Looking at: "A Vision of Students Today" (http://tinyurl.com/yq4oyp); so true
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths we want to spend this amount of GNP for this amount of covered individuals “.” then target the waste
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths there’s always this conceptualization that it is a right, privilege, entitlement, etc, how about a stewardship?
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths "bad as MediCAID" I think so, unless we have a fundamental change in how we do healthcare
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths an additional large problem is the cost-shifting of discounted insurance services onto the self-pay or non-discounted
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths we see many many MediCAID patients where the "payment" is much less than the admin cost + medmal cost
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths cash accounts have a minimal of administrative cost, therein lies the discount
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths insurance is usually already heavily discounted (esp. in CA where most insurance is some form of "capitation")
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths a variation on http://bit.ly/4zy5Ly it takes a bureaucracy to treat most illness in the US (where common sense is terminal)

@ruraldoctoring our 14 y/o cat has upped her sleeping, due to change in seasons, to 23 ¾ hours; cockatiel and parakeet r wack jobs "."
|
|
|
@ruraldoctoring when we first got him, my youngest was 10, he immediately became the most herdable family member, got knee capped good once
|
|
|
@ruraldoctoring Pepper herds everything: leaves, ants, spiders, shadows, water (you saw that video)
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths I think implicit w/ the notion of "national health care program" that's affordable is rationing
|
|
|
@GrantGriffiths "national health care program" can't pay 4 it b/c we have created a form of healthcare entitlement , everything 4 everyone
|
|
|
@ruraldoctoring @rlbates all dogs know that shadows are intimidated by clawing, biting, chewing and barking... perhaps canine anecdotes
|
|
|
@rlbates @ruraldoctoring w/ fall, the shadows come in all the windows and he spends a good time indoors trying to herd shadows
|
|
|
@rlbates @ruraldoctoring 65 lbs of nuclear energy, borders always do everything w/ 200%

@sandnsurf from one of the EDs I occasional work in: http://bit.ly/eOoHp & http://bit.ly/1xJ7TJ & http://bit.ly/2v4TRS

@sandnsurf variation on the state of EDs, is the state of hospitals (esp. US specialty hospitals), from 2006: http://bit.ly/jWGpB
