Huge thanks to @egottliebMD for sharing his work w/ the @BrighamWomens Ethics Committee today (after a night shift!). @MITCriticalData
#Bioethics folks: what policies/changes have your hospitals adopted to address racial disparities in pulse oximetry?

1/ New paper out w/ @bnrome @Beatrice__Brown @akesselheim @PORTAL_Research examines how top-performing hospitals mark up prices on clinician-administered drugs.

🧵 below.

2/ As of January 1, 2021, hospitals must now post payer-specific prices for all goods and services, including clinician administered drugs.

3/ Early compliance with the rule has been sluggish. See great work from @suhas_gondi @AdamLBeckman @averyofoje @JMichaelMcW

📄📄New article in @JAMAHealthForum 📄📄

We take a deep dive into the question of how to estimate rebates and other discounts received by Medicare #PartD.

With @bnrome, #VeroniqueRaimond, #JoshGagne, @akesselheim @PORTAL_Research

Thread below.

1/ First some background.

There are 2 broad categories of discounts in Medicare #PartD: direct and indirect remuneration (#DIR) and coverage gap discounts (#CGD).
2/ #DIR includes confidential rebates that drug manufacturers pay to #PartD plans and #PBMs, often to secure favorable formulary placement. #DIR also includes discounts paid by pharmacies to plans and #PBMs—e.g., to be in the plan’s preferred network.
