Thank you, @RepGusBilirakis, for leading the bipartisan Promoting Fairness for Medicare Providers Act (H.R. 7863). Aligning Medicare payment rates across care settings helps keep patients with their trusted physicians and helps independent practices stay open. #OBFA

Thank you, @RepRaulRuizMD, for championing H.R. 7863 and working to maintain patient access to independent physicians in rural and underserved areas. Seniors shouldn't have to drive an hour for care that could safely be delivered close to home. #OBFA

Thank you, @RepJoyceMD, for recognizing the importance of H.R. 7863 in today's hearing. We agree, H.R. 7863 can be part of overall Medicare Physician Fee Schedule structural reform. #OBFA

It was wonderful to be speaker in the recent UNCVentful Confluence webinar on "Large Bore Access for the Interventional Cardiologist," held under the aegis of @SCAI
We had an engaging session featuring valuable clinical insights, practical case discussions, and an interactive audience Q&A focused on optimizing outcomes and managing techniques in large bore interventional procedures.
A big thank you to my esteemed co-panelists, as well as everyone who joined live and contributed to the discussion @ApolloHosIndore

Join representatives from @SCAI , @SIRspecialists the Society of Vascular and Interventional Neurology (SVIN), and @VascularSVS to discuss the CREST-2 Study, which compares three different stroke prevention methods for patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis: medical management alone, medical management plus carotid stenting, and medical management plus carotid endarterectomy.
This multidisciplinary panel of experts will discuss how the study's results will impact clinical practice.

Do contemporary sites with the capabilities of MCS escalation have better outcomes than pts included in NCSI (Impella capable hospitals using a CS protocol w/ or w/o escalation capabilities and dedicated CICUs) ?
