À la Direction des Archives, Bibliothèques et Collections muséales de Sorbonne Université, il y a une affichette H1N1 datant de l'Université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie dans les toilettes !

This stuff shouldn't happen in a country as rich as ours. Healthcare is a nightmare and it gets worse and worse every day that goes by.

Can anyone articulate the value of the value based care in chronic kidney disease in the era of the #4pillars? Trad #VBC was based on the premise that generic angiotensin blockade was sufficient (false) and underutilized (proven to be wrong by the #UPMC trial that demonstrated that the perceived underutilization was just the ceiling of these therapies). Since most #VBC worked with Medicare Part B (which does not cover drugs), they can not even pay for the #4pillars.

A glaring example of the fact that just because a medical organization is declared non-profit absolutely does not mean that profit isn't the biggest concern.

« In May 2013, Katalin Karikó turned up for work at her laboratory (…) and found her belongings piled in the hallway. “There were my binders, my posters, my boxes of test tubes,” she recalls. Nearby a lab technician was shoving things into a trash bin. ».

At #SorbonneUniversité #UPMC I had a similar experience. How many others had the same ? #WomenInScience

My LTE on #masking in #hospitals or lack thereof. Looking at #UPMC and #MassGenBrigham especially.

Appointment today at the Center for Assistive Technology at UPMC Presby, downtown Oakland, Pittsburgh. They got me in and out in an hour, and during that time we tested and determined my preference for a GoChair. They're also getting me a home hospital bed and insurance will cover Everything. If you're disabled and on a Medicare/Medicaid plan, I can't recommend UPMC for Life enough. Personal health concierge has changed Everything about my standard of care. #disabled #healthcare #UPMC
