Regardless of religion my EM prayer:I pray that I will remain healthy, not unknowingly infect others, remain strong, remain brave & regardless of what happens, deliver excellent & compassionate care. I pray for health of my family,friends,colleagues,community,country & the world.

Amazing evening @MCEP_NEWS #MEMA24 Presidents Dinner opened by The Greg Henry Lecture. Support by @TheEMFoundation to highlight importance of the mission. Outstanding distillation of life wisdom by @ACEPNow Past President @drkivela. Humbled & inspired to be here!

I’m in the middle of a 2 Hour drive and I kind of got hooked on @thekillers I guess now I am officially a #victim. What should I listen to on the way back? americansongwriter.com/the-k…
Excited to hear about the future of EM from @emresidents @EDPMA @ACOEP @EmergencyDocs Presidents. Lots of challenges but also a lot of optimism. We have to develop new models. Looking forward to taking back some of these ideas to improve EM
It’s so weird that masks are no longer required in the hospital for everyone. Not sure they do much but a strange sight that I was not sure I would ever see again
If we are going to limit and regulate nursing salaries and doctor payments should we not also limit HealthPlan/insurance Co and health system/hospital administrative salaries and profits? Maybe healthcare should be a #publicutility usatoday.com/story/news/heal…

Special thanks to former @ACEPNow President, current @uabmedicine faculty member, and contract wiz @drkivela for his excellent discussion on the business side of our specialty! We appreciate your insight and your advocacy for our residents!
If you are looking for a great international meeting this Fall consider Turkey and @atuderorg in October 2022. Great EM leaders and speakers from around the world in a fun and historically significant location @ACEP_IEM

Did you know Many (~15-20%) hypertensive patients may be inadvertently taking meds that raise BP including antidepressants (8.7%), prescription NSAIDs; (6.5%), steroids (1.9%), and estrogens (1.7%). jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
Really??? Biden Admin In Talks To Offer Up To $450K To Every Illegal Border Crosser Separated. Instead How about we not cut and use extra to raise Medicare!!!! dailywire.com/news/biden-adm…
Studies Suggest Fish Oil Could Trigger A-Fib. Always learning something new. Being an excellent emergency physician requires more than just working clinically. We need time to attend medical conferences. @EmergencyDocs See you in Boston at #ACEP21 docwirenews.com/cardiology/a…
How many @EmergencyDocs got paycuts risking their lives while NFP HealthPlan ceos got 109% pay raises and not only hid but argued to cut and down code payments Check it out BCBS CEOs received bigger raises than execs at for-profit insurers modernhealthcare.com/insuran…
Happy to see #physicians are now the #1 most #trusted profession based on a multinational study. Front page of @FT

@omarmaniya moderating discussion with @GillianMD1 and @drkivela on Emergency Medicine workforce issues with facts and potential solutions. @EmergencyDocs @emresidents #SolutionSummit
Help me with this one. If you test positive for COVID-19 and don’t quarantine and infect others there is no penalty but if you drive “intoxicated”you are incarcerated because you are a danger to the public. Does this make sense?

As @tjsugarman has pointed out—(I’ve been part of exactly 1 peer reviewed journal so outside my realm)—how does the @NEJM not pull & renounce these studies due to the failure to disclose serious & material COI & lack or at least apparent compromise of editorial independence? – at Greensboro, NC
