TONIGHT: I'm doing an event at 8:30 pm EST with @ApparentLiMD on Steward Health Care & the public health emergency caused by converting hospitals into ponzi schemes. Tell your clinician friends! (esp if the sight of a pizza box makes them borderline homicidal) Register here: emailmeform.com/builder/form…

@RepBenBowman, @GovTinaKotek companies like United DeathCare don't care about the patient. They care about the bottomline. This opens the discussion of why corporations like @UHC encourage nurses to care for our elderly. The CPoM eliminates physician led care. We deserve better.

Let's join the fight to #TakeMedicineBack! takemedicineback.org
We have to pull more people in. It’s shocking the amount of inertia. I really enjoyed the meeting and it was so great to see more people, pissed off but quite frankly there is way too much being OK with things the way they are we have to stop with learned helplessness ASAP.

Update to Word of The Day: "Straw Doctors" by @moetkacik of @TheProspect "But corporate backlash to HB 4130 has been swift and fierce. Both Amazon and UnitedHealth Group have retained lobbyists to oppose it..." @ddayen @DGlaucomflecken prospect.org/health/2024-02-… @ddayen
Word of the day: "Captive Physician" The term for a Physician by Wallstreet execs who enables the illegal and unethical Corporate Practice of medicine by owning an ER contract on paper but stripped of all power by the Corporate group in exchange for a fee. #MedTwitter

@RepBenBowman, @GovTinaKotek We know where PE has its hands patients suffer. The current CPoM is literally harming patients both in hospitals and nursing facilities. It puts profits before patients. Patients deserve better and that patient could be you any day.
#MedTwitter - Industry is says that Oregon HB 4130 introduced by @RepBenBowman undermines "traditional" physician practice structures, like where non-physicians corporations like #PirateEquity, #HealthInsurance put profits over patients & ctrl physicians, & deny care. End #CPoM

To OR policymakers, remember that physicians owned by PE aren't allowed to speak ill of PE. HB4130 comes down to whether or not you think medical decisions should be made by physicians or by Wall Street profiteers. End #CorporateMedicine #CPoM #TakeMedicineBack @Hayrook
I definitely support Oregon HB 4130 put forth by @RepBenBowman. We need to take action to limit the rampant spread of private equity in health care. This is a good first step. You can contact Rep Bowman’s office to share your thoughts!

For the policymakers following, you can see @alvarombedoya @FTC commissioner supports state prohibitions on CPoM as "tremendously important." @capitolforums @TeddyDowney youtu.be/VkQCHB1IVrY?si=wlYr…

We need more of this kind of legislation around the country. Private equity has no place in healthcare decisions

Private equity has nobody’s health other than their bank accounts, and bonuses at the centre of the models
