The amount of inappropriate CTAs ordered may actually be the thing that breaks American Healthcare. Can we put some limits on who can order them?

You abuse CTA

You can't order, one year!

Google, does this CT scan contain cancer? There are two types of CT scan that contain the word "cancer", chest and abdomen.

“I hope no one needs an MRI this year.

The world's largest producer of liquified helium is in Qatar and is shut off. We just got a notice that our supply for the year will be at least cut in half.

No one could have predicted this (unless they thought about it).”

Great work by some of our teammates from UC-Irvine. If we are going to rush headlong into using LLMs for radiology reports, we should at least have some standard methods for evaluating them. authors.elsevier.com/c/1lvlN5VZMr...
proposed framework for LLM-Based simplification of radiology reports
analyze > 100 reports
employ multiple LLMs
Include quantitative readbility metrics such as the Flesch-Kincaid readbility test
Include quantitative evaluation of accuracy by qualified medical professionals AND patients

#atlantafalcons games are an unique experience with a lot of Atlanta rap/R&B flavor. It's even better when they play well (it's 50/50 these days) but it does give you the opportunity to answer surveys about the game like this
Please provide us with any additional feedback on what the Falcons did well or what could be done to improve your experience from teh game vs. the CommandersSwag surfin is too late in the game. I wanna swag surf with at least 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter, not after the 2 minute warning.

Our hospital is spending 10s of millions a year installing metal detectors to give people a fake sense of "safety." Then everyone is like "High five! We found XX number of guns." OF COURSE YOU DID THIS IS GEORGIA! Are we any safer? No Could that have been spent on patient care? Yes

I was cleaning out my google docs and found this survey I made a while back to roast these ridiciously Press Ganey surveys every year. Some things are evergreen.
Employee Engagement Survey
Survey to see how management is doing at this place! Totally scientific 😉
1. Do you feel like your employer cares about you and is invested in your success?
Yes -> CONGRATULATIONS! YOU WIN THIS SURVEY 🎆🎆
No -> Go to Question 2
2. Decreased bonus for you this year.
Go back to question 1 ☝️

I don't know what's more fascinating about this, that there is a ranking of "Judicial Hellholes" or that Georgia is #1.
#1 Georgia

Georgia vaulted to the top of the Judicial Hellholes® report in 2022 thanks in large part to a massive $1.7 billion punitive damages award in a product liability case in Gwinnett County that was riddled with ethically questionable events and severely biased court orders.

I don't think anyone outside of universities, pharma and biotech, independent research institutions have any idea of what is happening right now. If you haven't sounded the alarm among your friends, family and colleagues, now is the time to do it.
 quote on a dark blue and purple background from Sudip S. Parikh, CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), criticizing proposed cuts to science funding in the FY26 U.S. federal budget. The quote reads:

“If enacted, the FY26 budget request would end America’s global scientific leadership. The cuts to science would imperil our nation’s future health, security and prosperity. This budget proposal stands in stark contrast to the President’s call for a renewed commitment to American scientific leadership. Congress has demonstrated a bipartisan commitment to investment in research and must do so again to answer the President’s call.”
The quote is attributed to Sudip S. Parikh, CEO of AAAS and Executive Publisher of the Science family of journals. The AAAS logo appears at the bottom right.
