Excited to share this paper I wrote with @seppo_rinne for @AnnalsATS. Tried to cut through hype on LLMs and talk about how they're relevant to the work of health services researchers. Not "what they might eventually do" but what they are good for (and bad for) RIGHT NOW.

Have the words "eliminate exclusionary zoning" ever appeared in a Presidential transition plan before? You love to see it.

Worth reading this whole interview with @BillGates He's frank and plain-spoken, for example in this section, echoing what @DrTomFrieden and I have been saying about using payment levers to get faster test results. wired.com/story/bill-gates-o…

This is the most useful & compelling recommendation for conference poster redesign I have ever seen! Great job bringing #HCD/#UX to academia, @mikemorrison! I suggest we adopt this fully for all #SIRC2019 poster sessions!! @ImplementCollab #ImpSci youtube.com/watch?v=1RwJbhkC…

The real reward of research at the VA: when a VA policymaker reads your article and wants to see the "director's cut" (i.e. useful tidbits that didn't fit in the article) #ImpSci #HSRD

Qualitative researchers: tired of myopic responses? See our new paper where we asked people what “ideal” would look like. It’s @alisonh3’s famous “queen for a day” question. authors.elsevier.com/a/1YCng…

At #DIscience18 @dramyabernethy emphasizes SPEED of implementation. Accept more uncertainty up-front, then continuously monitor & re-evaluate w/ real-world evidence. Do D&I ppl know CMS has done this for years via “Coverage with Evidence Development”? disq.us/t/2w7za32

At #DIscience18 session on #DeImp, @helfrich_c says PCPs report they don’t have time to keep up w/ COPD Rx guidelines, yet COPD Rx is not worthy of pulmonologists' time. That’s a big deal! We need to create and entrench optimal norms for when (and how) to engage specialists.
