Dear @AndreaSCousins - Do you really want to raise Queens Obstetricians’ medical liability insurance premiums to a quarter million $$$ per yr. ?
Passing S6636 will do just that! In the name of #WomensHealthcare Please consider the implications
@AndreaSCousins Here’s a real word example - Queens OB #MedicalLiability premium would rise to ~ $250K per yr (actuary) Consider young doc w Student debt
This would dissuade that doc from caring for Queens women.
Remember that unlike most biz who can pass on cost hikes to consumers, docs cannot - payments being limited by payors
So @AndreaSCousins S6636 is more than problematic- it really does threaten #WomensHealth
Fortunately there’s a better path forward and am happy to help
@AndreaSCousins Pls dot pass S6636 & let’s work together for better #WomensHeslth for all NY
@AndreaSCousins That’s please do NOT pass #S6636 & let’s work together for #WomensHealth for all NY

With all the talk about Jim Crow, here's some history:
In the early 1830s, the white actor Thomas Dartmouth “Daddy” Rice was propelled to stardom for performing minstrel routines as the fictional “Jim Crow,” a caricature of a clumsy, dimwitted Black enslaved man. 1
Rice claimed to have first created the character after witnessing an elderly Black man singing a tune called “Jump Jim Crow” in Louisville, Kentucky. 2
He later appropriated the Jim Crow persona into a minstrel act 3

@mssnytweet Two viruses are approaching. The 1st from China is a potentially lethal respiratory #Coronavirus. The second potentially career-ending from Albany is Health&Mental Hygiene #SectionL (p 24-25) budget.ny.gov/pubs/archive/f…
Last week @HealthNYGov Commish Zucker expressed real interest in #PhysicianWellness.
This week #SectionL drops a back-breaking straw - so much for #Wellness

@kgoochBHR You quote ManagedCareCosts.com "The median pricing model is the correct solution for a truly economically fair market rate..."beckershospitalreview.com/finance/viewpo…
@kgoochBHR Fair to whom?" To the insurers who exacerbate out of network by aggressively narrowing those networks?
@kgoochBHR Ignoring that your source is ManagedCareCosts, you do realize that in NY the increased cost did not materialize, that infrequently used arbitration resulted in 50:50 split of verdicts, and DFS reports no systemic FAIL
