“On average, $1 is leveraged to abolish $100 in medical debt, and every donation through this page will be used to directly abolish medical debt in Georgia” would love to see the ATL/GA medical communities help get this done #medtwitter #IDtwitter @docwithapurpose @gradydoctor
Y'all ready to do some good?
Medical debt is an unacceptable burden. No one should have it hanging over their head.
How I'd Fix Atlanta has partnered with @RIPMedicalDebt to wipe out debt in ATL and beyond.
Give what you can. Tell everyone you know.

I can't think of a better person to win this award - congrats, @docwithapurpose!!!

We urgently need a national PrEP program that goes beyond paying for meds. Such program should also provide care for co-occurring epidemics. People need this NOW regardless of their insurance and/or immigration status. @HIVMA

1. In @medpagetoday Dan Resnick and I wrote about the disregard for incarcerated patient rights and dignity in hospital settings. My hope is that more healthcare workers will engage with why this happens and push their institutions to change. @genevievefri medpagetoday.com/opinion/sec…
“Our duty is to our patient. We must do everything in our collective power to build an environment that honors their rights and dignity.” Check out this article by my amazing former coresidents @mspencer22 and Dan Resnick about substandard care of incarcerated patients
.@mspencer22 with another great piece … this time focusing on how hospitals regularly ignore the rights of incarcerated patients and what they can do better ⬇️

“Because the state [of Georgia] did not expand Medicaid, billions of federal dollars that are meant to support the state’s health systems are going unused.”
