Old me: 'Fee-for-service is the problem, value-based care is great.'

New me: 'Middlemen price inflation is the problem, & value-based care must prioritize access to care for highest risk groups to fight disparities.'

🙏Karen Joynt Maddox MedAxiom Alison L. Bailey, MD Ty Gluckman Jerry Blackwell

Old me: 'Innovations like TAVR, LAAO are helping us save more lives.'

New me: 'Only 4% LAAO recipients are black!? Who am I not referring because of bias? Innovation without equity in access = worsening health disparities.'

Thanks to Sam Conaway, Alison L. Bailey, MD Ty Gluckman again

Wow.
