*US vs Geisinger*

7. How would patients be hurt by the transaction?
Hospitals compete to attract patients to their facilities by offering high quality care, a broad #scope of #services, #amenities, #convenience, customer service, and attention to patient satisfaction. This competition improves access to #healthcare, reduces wait times, and improves the quality of care for all patients, including commercially insured, #Medicare, #Medicaid, and #uninsured #patients. #Hospitals also compete to be included in health insurers’ networks and this #competition enables insurers to #negotiate lower #reimbursement rates and other terms that reduce healthcare costs, all for the benefit of patients. This transaction permanently and fundamentally alters the competitive relationship between #Geisinger and #Evangelical by linking them together in a number of ways that, taken together, raise the likelihood of coordination and reduce #Geisinger
#incentivetocompete #aggressive against each other... The transaction is likely to lead to #highprices, #lowquality, and #reducedaccess to high-quality #inpatient hospital services for patients in central Pennsylvania. In addition, the transaction creates incentives for Geisinger to raise prices to commercial insurers and other #purchasers inpatient acute care...

"One possible explanation [of high U.S. performance on care process] lies in the ...pay-for-performance, or #valueBasedCare, efforts that ... may have succeeded in ...preventive services in particular."

A major update from me: After completing my first tenure track appointment, I'm lucky to be starting a lab in #Geisinger's Department of Bioethics and Decision Sciences: https://www.geisinger.edu/gchs/research/about-gchs-research/find-an-investigator/2024/07/09/15/41/nick-byrd

I may blog about the decision and next steps (so feel free to ask questions), but for now you can find my initial thoughts about the transition on #LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7221136969722990592/

For those lucky souls who had the weekend off: here was another reminder of the insider threat:

Mass General Brigham fires two employees after patient data breach

https://databreaches.net/2024/06/30/mass-general-brigham-fires-two-employees-after-patient-data-breach/

Neither #MGB nor #Nuance have responded to inquiries about their insider breaches. For Nuance, its breach affected more than 1 million #Geisinger patients. My post included details on the former employee's criminal activities:

People don't bitch about #Adderall enough. Seriously. What are you afraid of?

I've been on it since I was a youngster. It has become next to impossible to get the Rx filled these days. It's absolutely ridiculous.

I have an accredited doctor who I happen to convene with via Telehealth. She's part of my whole clinical network/ insurance company, #Geisinger .

#Walmart refuses to fill the script because it's a #telehealth Dr.

This comes as a surprise because
1.) I've had the Rx filed by Walmart off-and-on over the past 20 years or so.
2.) I had no issues with #CVS / no idea that this was "a thing"

Now closer to a WM pharm vs the prev CVS, it made sense to have this month sent here
(Adderall patients are forced through this rigmarole every 30 days).

Why don't more people bitch? Haven't you been affected?
