HCA is the nation’s largest for-profit hospital chain. It’s also the #1 sponsor of residency training programs in the U.S. And HCA has **QUADRUPLED** the number of residents they train over the past decade. (But yeah, tell me again how hospitals lose money training residents.)

Yay! @yaleem2 hasn't had 24 hour shifts since I've been a resident, so I'm so excited to see this move for our IM friends too!

This happens too often, and is why we compartmentalize. I almost cried after I called TOD on a 34 yo. the patient in the next room said "take your time honey, I heard you just lost a young one. Are you okay?" The kindness was so unexpected and made me realize how little we get.
A physician group I’m part of mentioned a post of an EM physician at the hospital in Maine who received many shooting victims last night that a formal complaint was placed against him by another patient with a cough that felt they waited in the ED too long last night.

Students want to be a part of the solution in #EmergencyMedicine !!! My hope is that the students applying understand EM and the problems facing the field so that they can show up ready to get great clinical training and work to be an asset. #TakeEMback @AAEMRSA @aaeminfo

WINNER: Emergency Medicine. The big story of Match Week 2023 was the 500+ EM positions available in the SOAP, caused by a rapid drop in EM applicants. But this year, EM applicants are up 33% (driven mainly by increases in DO and IMG applicants).

More examples of why CMGs should not impact resident education

Love @DGlaucomflecken and his shout out to our lawsuit. Meet the real EM physician who the PE video is based on!
For those wondering, the real-life #EmergencyPhysician in this video is @RobertMcNamar12 of @aaeminfo and @TakeMedBack. While he doesn't bike to work.. he might paddle there. AAEM has worked for 30 years to fight corporate medicine. Take Medicine Back is continuing the fight

My father is a doctor of jurisprudence and is perfectly fine not being called “doctor” as an attorney. It’s the clinical use of the term that’s intentionally line blurring and not ethical. With a vast difference in training and expertise, the clinical use of the term doctor is synonymous with physician and always has been. Patients deserve to know who they are seeing because it makes all the difference in their cost of care and health outcomes. ama-assn.org/practice-manage… – at Flowood, MS

#EMBound #Match2024 - med students aren't dumb! @AAEMRSA supports you in your search for the right program
"One might think that medical students do not consider issues like private-equity-backed-CMGs, physician burnout, or scope creep. But I know they do." — AAEM/RSA President, Dr. @LeahColucci in a recent @EMNews article on the state of #EmergencyMedicine: bit.ly/44FgXUK

Yes!! PLEASE write how much O2 patient is on and why they need it in discharge summary. The number of times a patient comes in because the home aide found them hypoxic "hypoxic" when they just weren't wearing their home O2... I could save sooo much time.
Replying to @Factor_XII
Why patient needs O2 At discharge. Don’t copy progress note as discharge note. Anemia doesn’t mean, iron deficiency. Order anemia workup. Don’t do endo consult for diabetes or hypothyroidism management. Don’t do pulmonary consult for non-vent copd management or pneumonia.
