Grateful to The HealthTech Signal for placing me at #2 on its list of 100 health tech influencers. There are many worse fates than trailing @EricTopol, and the list includes many of the folks I follow for health tech/AI insights. https://t.co/m4EUNckpsH https://t.co/8YsxgfkO6c 11.8K views · 105 likes · 8 reposts · 7 replies Open on X →

In @WIRED, @StevenLevy dives into the "Will we need MDs?" debate, fueled by the recent @ZekeEmanuel @VinodKhosla @nealkhosla & @AbeBakerButler @JAMA_current article. I'm quoted, and Zeke describes how his interest in AI vs. MD came from reading my book. https://t.co/6WHGRcAa5p 8.5K views · 19 likes · 9 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

@Bob_Wachter @JAMA_current @ZekeEmanuel @vkhosla @nealkhosla @AbeBakerButler For blood pressure, the class labels actually are completely backwards. Control in the US peaked at 53.8% in 2013 to 2014. By 2017 to 2018 it was 43.7%. Falling, not rising. That is what human-led care 65 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@Bob_Wachter @JAMA_current @ZekeEmanuel @vkhosla @nealkhosla @AbeBakerButler Disappointing read. Thx is more about maintaining comp/status of doctors than helping patients. 203 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

I agreed with much of the controversial @JAMA_current piece on autonomous AI by @ZekeEmanuel @vkhosla @nealkhosla & @AbeBakerButler. Given a clean set of clinical facts, AI will often beat MDs on dx & Rx. But there's far more to the story.

@Bob_Wachter @NEJM My mom received substandard care from a group of hospitalists two weeks ago. Not even a hint of the medical school and residency rigor I had. Arrogant, lazy, and couldn’t even be bothered with questions lest it hurt the egos. Not impressed with their model. 3.3K views · 24 likes · 3 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

@Bob_Wachter @NEJM Obama's administration initiated significant changes to socialize and destroy America's healthcare system that have had far-reaching consequences. Right after his inauguration in January 2009, he enacted the HITECH Act, mandating the use of electronic health r 1.5K views · 12 likes · 1 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

30 years ago today, L Goldman & I coined the term "hospitalist" in @NEJM. I suspected the field would matter; I didn't guess it would be the fastest-growing specialty in US history. To the docs who turned an idea into something real–& now essential–thanks! https://t.co/c5G1NLbSLN 80.6K views · 411 likes · 56 reposts · 23 replies Open on X →
