“To overthrow oppression has been sanctioned by humanity and is the highest aspiration of every free man.” - Nelson Mandela, 9/21/1953
Appreciated the chance to discuss our research on hospital boards with @GlobeLizK @BostonGlobe as well as many docs @MassGenBrigham who reached out to learn more about our work, which seeks to describe the professional composition of boards of US hospitals x.com/suhas_gondi/st…

Why are most wealthy hospitals paying 0 federal taxes this year? Most absolutely refuse to schedule appts for Americans seeking care, even cancer Tx, unless they financially qualify. My oped--Congress should condition the tax benefit on true charity care👇🏽 statnews.com/2024/04/14/non…
🚨The financial sector is increasingly involved in US healthcare. Physicians, patients, and the public deserve to know about the corporate tactics used for profits. In @NEJM, Zirui Song @HMSHCP and I describe one tactic – SPACs nej.md/3VUyTKu 1/9
"This is what #DEI efforts wanted to accomplish: to bring clinicians who look, speak, and think like their patients to their bedsides." @davidevelasqu @statnews I saw the promise of diversity efforts in health care. A moment later I saw its critical gaps buff.ly/3VGFiZp
In case you missed it, early results show that providing services for non-medical drivers of health (food, housing, transportation, interpersonal violence) in NC Medicaid is **saving $85 per person per month in medical costs.** ncdhhs.gov/news/press-rel…
César Chávez & his allies positively impacted so many lives, including my own. When my family & I had nowhere to sleep, we were housed at Comunidad César Chávez, an emergency family shelter in Los Angeles. His inspiration lives on, and his impact remains limitless.

In the DMV area, thousands of Salvadorans with Temporary Protected Status—most who originally entered undocumented in the 1980s and 1990s—work in construction jobs, often in senior roles given their wealth of experience. They are literally building the region to fuel its growth.

It’s no surprise that all 6 construction workers who died from the Baltimore bridge collapse were Latino immigrants. For generations, immigrants have toiled on our land and built our cities — all while sacrificing their own bodies. They deserve our love, prayers, and more.

In light of last week’s anti-DEI bill in medical education that would punish medical schools with DEI programs, it’s reassuring to see the @AAMCtoday putting forward a statement reaffirming the importance of a healthcare workforce that reflects our diverse patient population!
It is because of the ACA — and its extended subsidies — that after 30 years of living in the U.S, my immigrant parents finally got to see a Spanish-speaking, Latino primary care physician. They were so happy that they sent me selfies 🥹 Thank you, @BarackObama @JoeBiden @VP 🙏🏽

There is no evidence that suggests medical students’ learning of antiracist curricula or increasing the diverse representation of physicians leads to worse health outcomes. In fact, evidence suggests the opposite. DEI efforts in medicine help save lives. This bill is dangerous.
Being a first-gen college/med student is very grounding. When I told my family about match day, they said: “I thought you were done!” - brother “Como se dice ‘Brigham’”?- mom “Did they give you your diploma?” - dad Gotta love it 😄

What an absolute privilege. I matched to my #1 choice program @BrighamWomens @BrighamMedRes! So much gratitude for all my mentors, friends, & family who made this possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Proud of all the med students that matched today, but especially proud of this guy. We’re so lucky to have @davidevelasqu join @BrighamMedRes!
Growing up, my parents never had a doctor The first time my mom saw one, she was being rushed to the scanner for a code stroke The first time my dad saw one, he was being rushed to the cath lab for a heart attack But now, the next time they will see a doctor, it will be me 🥹
Sometimes, we can't just throw money at the problem. Lack of diversity in medicine is one of those problems. While free tuition helps, it alone can't make up for centuries of institutional racism and structural disadvantage -- income inequality, residential segregation, etc. --…

it’s wild that coastal cities have spent years debating if YIMBY policies will lower rents, and Austin just… did it they streamlined permitting, upzoned most of the city, and eliminated parking mandates. Tons of housing is going up and rents are plummeting. YIMBY policies work

This one’s for the EMTALA nerds
As likely the only board certified EM physician and repro rights attorney in the country, few things get me fired up like EMTALA and the denial of emergency abortion care. Our patients deserve better. Join us tomorrow as we rally for patients at SCOTUS 🙌🏼🙌🏼
EMTALA saves lives. We’re taking the truth to the steps of the Supreme Court. Join us in the fight against anti-abortion extremists on 4/24 at 9 AM. Register here: act.nwlc.org/a/emtala-rally…

Reflecting on the profound and often tragic stories woven into the narrative of gun violence in the U.S., it's evident how intertwined public health, policy, and personal action are in addressing such a complex crisis.

Inspiring Presidential Address by Dr. Carmen Solórzano: Only 1.1% of Latina medical students make it to surgery I am a Latina, Surgeon, Chair of Surgery. I stand before you as the first Latina 🇳🇮 President of the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons 🦏 #AAES2024 #LSSatAAES
All of us have seen the tragedy of Gaza. We've seen how Netanyahu's government has used US weapons to kill indiscriminately and create famine. I will not participate in this carnage. When Congress votes on sending more offensive weapons to Israel today, I will vote no. 1/
Absolutely. A university calling in the police to arrest its own students engaged in a peaceful encampment is completely beyond the pale, and speaks to the escalating McCarythism of this moment — on and off campus. It also sets a terrible precedent.
For context, when Occupy Harvard occurred in 2011, Drew Faust allowed the encampment to persist for six weeks, at which point the group voluntarily disbanded. The decision to call in the NYPD here should be seen as extreme and unnecessary.
In the '50s, '60s, and '70s, the government surveilled, infiltrated, and disrupted the work of peaceful Latino civil rights activists — including my mom. Today, a new episode of TPR's "Fronteras" podcast delves into her story and my efforts to declassify records from that era.
On #Fronteras: @JoaquinCastrotx has asked the directors of the CIA & FBI to declassify & release documents re: surveillance of the Latino civil rights movement. We talk to Castro and his mom, Rosie @castrocountry, who has her own FBI file she's never seen. bit.ly/4d3HAYO

Big thanks to my parents who always encouraged me. Today we went to the @BNBuzz in @UnionSquareNY and I saw my mom cry holding my book. To the parents out there - never stop showing your kids how much you support them. That will never get old. It was really meaningful.
I'm a published author. I struggled to write essays in HS, college, grad school, even as faculty. Never assumed Id be a writer. Never consider writing a skill one can develop. After small lessons via courses, books, rejections - I grew - & felt like I was ready to write a book.
I am thrilled to be joining KPSOM as the next Dean and CEO, alongside the dedicated faculty, staff and students who will continue to shape the future of medicine!

We @KFF plan to send @iamjohnoliver a job offer as a policy analyst working on Medicaid.
This week’s main story is about Medicaid, why so many people are losing access to it, how you can stay informed, and how to prove you were born. Y’know, if living and breathing doesn’t do the trick.
