What a vile act by itself and awful act of betrayal to his patients. I hope he feels the full force of justice alongside any who facilitated him.

Sure we should improve all schools, this policy doesn’t achieve this.

Respectfully I disagree, I’m not private school educated, but I fail to see how taxing education is of benefit to anyone? It’s basically just punishing the middle class, makes zero difference to the super rich who don’t really pay their fair share of tax.

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield Won’t Pay for the Complete Duration of Anesthesia for Patients’ Surgical Procedures In an unprecedented move, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans representing Connecticut, New York and Missouri have unilaterally declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia care if the surgery or procedure goes beyond an arbitrary time limit, regardless of how long the surgical procedure takes. The American Society of Anesthesiologists calls on Anthem to reverse this proposal immediately.

As a surgeon, I have some thoughts on this. 🧵
