Just FYI to the Bogus #BehaviouralHealthOpsters out there who like to project that everything is a "health crisis" from which people are "recovering" and need "healing" and "therapy" from: #PsychiatryCrime #SpyStateCrime #Spychiatry cannot be hidden ANYMORE & is #BeingExposed!šŸ‘¹
7:31 pm: Direct response to this tweet from the Opsters right next door calling out (they do this Only when Spychiatry is exposed at my pen, on social media, online on my Bentley logs, or in an article & in real time) to their conveniently named dog. Luna! Luna! Luna! Luna! Luna!
And since it appears #Spychiatry is such an elemental subject provoking immediate attention, may they all be warned: I am now at the #Spychiatry Desk, and the endless stream of subject flowing in is sure going to keep me busy!

I was honored to speak in front of @HouseScience committee yesterday abt the importance of trusted messengers in a crisisā€” & what we need to do for the next phase of #Covid_19.

Here is my opening statement ā€¦ šŸ§µ 1x

#Vaccines #VaccinesSaveLives #PrimaryCare
As we inevitably face more C19 waves & variants, I worry abt the ongoing devastation from the virus *and* abt the collateral damage from the mitigations themselves. Mostly I worry abt pplsā€™ confusion & resulting anxiety abt not knowing who to trust in a global health crisis.2x
Iā€™m here to share with you what Iā€™ve learned firsthand caring for patients almost every day during COVIDā€”real people on the receiving end of often confusing public health guidance & the unfortunate politicization of science. 3x

Here are some of the gems we mined during our 2022 behavioral health deals and trends outlook webinar #behavioralhealth #mentalhealth
Behavioral Health is far and away the most attractive segment from a #mergers and #acquisition standpoint, compared to any of the other #healthcare service segments tracked by The Braff Group
Value Based Care has the right financial incentives to make it work long term, however reimbursement from value based care is relatively small. #valuebasedcare

#medicaid presentation. We've had budget surpluses for years. Any issues could be covered.
"This is a year unlike any other in the 50 year history"
convergence of new managed care program and pandemic uncertainty.
Pandemic has increased costs for providers, the program
The good news is that the bump up in #Covid_19 spending has continued longer than we expected. Even tho there are more beneficiaries, there's more federal $$ flowing into program. Projected higher budget, but @ncdhhs had difficulty projecting by how much
Highlights of #Medicaid budget: Expanded coverage for post-partum, more waiver slots, new $$$ for home and community block grants, funding for child services reorganization, then there's IT costs. Lots going on for @ncdhhs

Yesterday marked the last day of my decade in @NHG_HOMER. I am most proud of what my team achieved together. We built a vibrant research ecosystem for both the fledging and the experienced researcher. #AMEE2021 #healthprofessions @AMEE_Online @AAMCtoday @ASAnews
My first project in @NHGTweets. Comparing interprofessional interaction patterns across three clinical settings using social network analysis + ethnography. #interprofessionalcare #ipe #ipc
We made the news @straits_times, @zaobaosg and even won best poster @AMEE_Online in 2012!

What we say matters!
"Behavioral #Nudges Increase #COVID19 Vaccinations", just out in @Nature today! w @hengchen_dai @danielcroymans

@uclaanderson @CarnegieMellon @UCLAHealth

Main takeaways ā¬‡ļø 1/4
@UCLAHealth patients received text reminders that made appointment scheduling easy 1 day (RCT#1) and 8 days (RCT#2) after being notified of vaccine eligibility.

Reminder #1 boosts appointments by 6.07 pp (84%) & vaccinations by 3.57 pp (26%)

Reminder #2 further helps

2/4
Leveraging #psychologicalOwnership, telling patients that the vaccine ā€œhas just been made available to themā€ & to ā€œclaim your dose,ā€ further boosts appointments & vaccinations

Adding a video-based information intervention to reminders does not yield additional benefits

3/4

The folks who are anti-diversity need to update their tired playbook.

Sharing space for win-wins is not the same as hating people in a space.

Violating professional ethics by trying to diagnose via Twitter only damages own professional reputation by displaying poor judgment.
The time to have diagnosed by Twitter was here - instead of holding leadership accountable, people scrambled to put guardrails and install people to be "adults" in the room to reassure the public.

Actually don't be reassured.
Do something.

This was time to raise alarm, not "reassure"

All of you who distribute pacifiers and those eager to be pacified killed Americans

Plus, there was utterly bad and WRONG advice from a #physician and #publichealth #leader that "no need" to think about DNRs.

Millions in #NorthCarolina live with #BehavioralHealth issues, but many lack access to the right care. Proud to be working with industry leaders to ensure physical and behavioral #health get treated together. #TodayWe @BlueCrossNC bit.ly/35sfq67
Our behavioral health strategy has 3 parts. Part 1: Change the payment structure (and our operating model) to integrate behavioral and physical health care.
Part 2: Get the most out of the behavioral health providers that we have by giving them new tools, new connectivity to primary care through @quartethealth. Quartet is our ā€œforce multiplierā€ for behavioral health.

This year #waleg & I funded @UWMedicine to develop a first-in-the-nation #behavioralhealth teaching hospital. Along with helping WA treat more people who need psychiatric care, they'll implement a cutting-edge curriculum to train more much-needed behavioral health professionals.
Marilynn, one of the students I met, is finishing her residency before heading to work in Grand Coulee's Family Medicine Clinic. Providing more services, especially in underserved & rural areas, is crucial ā ā€” & why weā€™re building the nationā€™s largest psychiatric program at UW. Meeting with students and t...
