One day soon physicians will have their own Independence Day too. They will have professional autonomy again and their private practices back. Appreciating physicians today and always. #DreamBig #ThinkBig #PrayForPhysicians #HealthyWorkingConditions

June is for the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

“The most dangerous lie is believing you have time forever.” ~ St. Catherine of Siena

Memorare Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

• St. Padre Pio says: "Your tears were collected by the angels and were placed in a golden chalice, and you will find them when you present yourself before God."

The month of June is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

US nonprofit hospitals spent $7.8 billion on management consultants from 2009 to 2023, but contracts were not associated with meaningful changes in finance, operations, or quality of care. 🧵 ja.ma/4d46zfq

Wow, they aren't too good at this. It is time to allow physician-owned hospitals.

If nonprofit hospitals are exempt from property taxes, then so should the rest of us! Either we all pay property taxes, or we don't. @DutchRojas @HeathVeuleman @mass_marion @DrCorriel @noahkaufmanmd @AtlasMD @GovRonDeSantis

Maybe we need to pass HR 4002 and allow physicians owned hospitals to provide competition to the healthcare systems. And we also need to eliminate Stark laws and pass site neutral care. Physician led care is the answer to outrageous hospital prices.

⭐️Awareness campaigns are imperative. Patients and physicians should be allies but uncontrollable pressures on physicians are destroying those relationships. This all needs to be spelled out for the public.

Many nonprofit hospitals offer financial assistance, but patients often aren’t aware of it. Depending on income, some costs may be reduced or even forgiven if you apply. This video is for educational purposes only and is NOT medical advice. #Healthcare #PatientAwareness

Minnesota hospitals make $1billion more from the 340B program than they spend on charity care. There is no way to track how the hospitals spend this torrent of money flooding in. We need to eliminate this program that hasn't provided any discernible benefit.

Patients would demand I fill out their FMLA paperwork. I told them my fees for paperwork are $1,000 per hour. I also told them my office staff will fill it out for no charge. No one ever hired me for this task.

The real move would be to eliminate prior authorizations!! We don't need more "tech solutions," we need insurance solutions. We need to minimize the role of insurance and remove it from: • labs • imaging • prescription drugs • physician services • procedures

It’s worth repeating: Wood smoke pollution is not a “nuisance.”

FATHER DOLINDO RUOTOLO A Prophet of our Time Father Don Dolindo Ruotolo was a Neapolitan priest stigmatized miracle worker and “mouthpiece of the Holy Spirit”. Father Ruotolo had extraordinary communications with Jesus throughout his heroic life, a life that was totally devoted to God and Holy Mother Mary. He referred to himself as “the Madonna’s little old man” and the Rosary was his constant companion. Much of what our Lord wants flies in the face of normal human inclination and reason. We can only rise to this level of thinking through the grace of God and the help of the Holy Spirit. We must let go of our problems, stop worrying, and trying to resolve them ourselves. We must believe, trust, and allow our Lord to rescue us from ourselves and supply our wants, needs and resolve our problems as only He can. Jesus, You take care of it, should be the first words that come to mind and flow from our lips. After all, we have tried to do things our way and look where it has got us. Just do as the prayer says, open our hearts and minds in love and close our eyes in trust, and ask Jesus to take care of it. He will. On November 19, 1970 ,Don (Fr) Dolindo Ruotolo died at the age of 88. Padre Pio once said of this priest from Naples, Italy, The whole of paradise is in your soul. His name “Dolindo” means “Pain” and his life was rich with this pain. As a child, a teenager, a seminarian and a priest, he experienced humiliation, which was the realization of the prophetic words of a bishop who said You will be a martyr, but in your heart, not with your blood. In his profound humility, he was able to hear the words of God. Even with his hidden life, he was one of the greatest prophets of the last century. He wrote to Bishop Hnilica in 1965 that a new John will rise out of Poland with heroic steps to break the chains beyond the boundaries imposed by the communist tyranny. On this postcard, he wrote words of consolation for Poland and all the countries suffering under the communist regime. This prophecy was realized in the papacy of John Paul II. In his tremendous suffering, Dolindo became more and more a child who lived his self-offering to the Divine Father. I am totally poor, a poor nothing. My strength is my prayer. My leader is the will of God, which I let take me by the hand. My security over the uneven path is the heavenly mother Mary. One of the treasures from the words that Jesus spoke to Dolindo was the teaching about total abandonment to God. In this novena, Jesus is talking to Don Dolindo and also to you. THE SURRENDER NOVENA Given by Jesus to Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)

Holy Mother of God, pray for us 🌹

I study measles. I’ve seen the devastating toll it takes on children’s immune systems It drives immunological amnesia and erases parts of protective immune memory and sets kids up for secondary infections months and years later Its not benign nytimes.com/2025/04/02/opini…

Unpopular opinion: We need to pay for a higher percentage of our healthcare out-of-pocket! In 1960, almost half of all healthcare was paid out of pocket; now that share has decreased to 10%. In 1960, we paid 5% of GDP on healthcare, and now that percentage is approaching 20%! That means we are more reliant on health insurance and insuring events that are too cheap to insure. When the insurance company pays for 90% of care, the prices are hidden, and there is no incentive to shop for care. Health insurance should be like term life insurance, cheap and hopefully never used! @HeathVeuleman @DutchRojas @AtlasMD @mass_marion @notaproviderMD

Physicians need to realize that we are the ones with the training, skills, and talent that drive the healthcare system. We need doctors, not administrators!
