So let me get this straight. Medicare Advantage plans 1) waste money on commercials 2) pay Drs 1/2 what Medicare does 3) saddle patients with higher copays & deductibles 4) patients have smaller networks 5) costs the government MORE than Medicare Sounds like a scam to me

Every time you see a commercial for a prescription drug or a billboard for a hospital, know that that is your healthcare money not being used to benefit your health or your care
Brody Lab graduate student has fallen into the upside down, where we apparently use @SanworksLLC Bboqs to train our animals. Let’s hope they’re a little more friendly than the demodogs.

Some may say I’m 43, but each of my cells and all of my DNA have an unbroken link to the first life on earth 3.5 billion years ago. And that just… 🤯

Dear news media, Yes it was an attack on Paul Pelosi… But it was also the attempted ASSASSINATION OF THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE! I know, it’s asking too much to ask you to catch such a minor detail.

When your doctor examines you, do you want them to wear gloves? Why? Then you’ll know why we should continue to wear masks in healthcare settings

While I’m loving this podcast I’m also horrified that kids are NOT being taught to read! The letters aren’t necessary to figure out what a word is?! Any parent of 1st-3rd graders should check their curriculum. features.apmreports.org/sold…

Every time you see a Medicare Advantage Plan commercial, know that’s government Medicare money being used to advertise for private for-profit billion dollar corporations It’s all a scam

Also some elderly patients have enough difficult simply taking a photo & emailing it, or using FaceTime on their iPhones. My wife has literally spent hours explaining to patients how to work their phones. Requiring them to download special software is not going to work.

In short tele-health brings many benefits to healthcare. It should be expanded. Commercial insurance should be required to cover it. And it should be made easier to access, not the opposite. Thanks. Love the show!
