I'm a slave 2 my job 4 my insurance.I'll dump a doc who's an idiot!

erinrbreedlove

As a future doctor and current patient, I'd like to think that my doctors (and

colleagues) think of me as a PERSON first & foremost. #MDChat

murzee Paying taxes IS paying #mdchat

MeredithGould @sharingstrength I'm getting that as a tattoo...someday. #MDchat

drpoppyBHRT

@ritika61 Well, we all have to have priorities for what we spend our money on,

that's why HSAs are a good idea. #MDchat

foxepractice

"If youre not paying for it, youre not the customer; you are the product being sold." #mdchat

ritika61@drpoppyBHRT I assume you work in the US? A patient should not have todecide whether or not to spend money on their health. #MDChat

chukwumaonyeije @MeredithGould Something that you do very well, I may add. #mdchat

MeredithGould

@chukwumaonyeije I'm forever grateful that Dr. @SusannahFox,

anthropologist, is high profile. #mdchat

EinsteinMed

RT @DrJerath: RT @drpoppyBHRT @ritika61 Anyone can order tests-a real

physician establishes a relationship w/ pt, that is the mark of a "

good" doc #MDchatPayformance Enjoyed participating - Thanks! #mdchat

Think that 'client' is probably best term out of several imperfect options

@ritika61 Work at a CHC but never did like term 'client' #MDChat

Srini2000

@philbaumann Great idea to do this chat group. Congratulations and thanks

#mdchat

drpoppyBHRT

@ritika61 @MeredithGould Yes, of course, I believe that my work has value just

like Dr. Chuk's mechanic. #MDchatchukwumaonyeije @murzee Great to chat with you again. Take care. #MDchat

EllenRichter

Wonderful turnout. Excellent quality chat! Thanks @MD_chat for getting

together this group on Twitter! #MDchat Great reading the tweets! :)

TxStemcell Great insight from social physicians on first live MD chat ever : #MDChat #hcsm

DrJerath

ritika61

@drpoppyBHRT Of course your work has value. US system set up so have to

CHOOSE to spend on health unlike all other OECD countries. #MDChat

chukwumaonyeije

@drpoppyBHRT You've obviously never met my mechanic. I don't think anyone

would describe his work as having "value". LOL #MDchat

T3 Cont. The 830 hospitals using SM represent only about 14% of total U.S

hospitals using SM. Faster growth needed to meet demand. #MDChat

kadavids chat - Really enjoyed the first #MDChat - very insightful. Thanks @MD_chat!

#MDchat @IvyEyesEditing this article has an interesting point made. Activism is

hard work, revolving around projects not only around tweets.

EinsteinMed
