Any ideas/input?
#PrimaryCare #MedEd #IM peeps: How do you all handle Nursing Visits in Resident Clinic? Who staffs them? What kind of visits are these? Would love to esp hear from those with smaller faculty numbers. @CchristmColleen @CoryRohlfsen @GIMaPreceptor @JenPlotkinMD @RakheeBhayaniMD

The US healthcare system must address the intersectionality of #discrimination faced by #OlderAdults suffering from #OUD. Read ⬇️ from Drs. Benjamin Han & @kfjonespallnp about the isolation & stigma this population faces. #ThisIsGeriatrics @ucsdgeriatrics buff.ly/49QcstU

No surprise ⬆️portal messaging 2019–>2021 given COVID. Suspect high volume message receivers are also high efficiency message responders. Thoughts? @GIMaPreceptor @adamcifu @CoryRohlfsen @ChrisDJacksonMD @MattSakumoto @primarycarechat @SAmbertPompey @ParivashSanders @fairyburger
#PajamaTime How much time do primary care clinicians spend responding to #PatientPortal messages, and how much is after hours? Find out, in this study by @ktmartinez and colleagues. buff.ly/48KZ61E
