Mark Vazquez+FollowShould Doctors Decide When Care Stops?I've been thinking about whether doctors should have the final say on when medical care is considered futile. It seems like a tough call—on one hand, families want hope, but on the other, doctors know when treatments just won't work. Is it fair to expect doctors to keep going when there's no chance of recovery? Or should families always have the last word? Curious what others think about this! #MedicalEthics #HealthcareDebate #DoctorsPerspective #Health #BodyHealth1422Share
james60+FollowAre Tax Dollars Funding 'Woke' Hospitals?Did you know some major hospitals are getting called out for using federal funds on DEI programs, climate activism, and gender surgeries for minors? A new report from Consumers’ Research claims places like Cleveland Clinic and Vanderbilt are spending big on these initiatives instead of just patient care. The group wants Congress to pull funding until hospitals focus on affordable care, not politics. Thoughts on your tax dollars going to these causes? #HealthcareDebate #TaxpayerMoney #DEI #Health #BodyHealth81Share
Lori Elliott+FollowAre Med Schools Getting Too Political?Medical schools are catching heat for getting way too political, according to two doctors who say students are now learning activism alongside anatomy. From chanting about Gaza in hospitals to mandatory antiracism training, they argue that politics is overshadowing patient care and real science. The big question: Should med students focus more on medicine and less on social justice? This debate is definitely stirring up the healthcare world! #MedicalSchool #HealthcareDebate #PoliticsInMedicine #Health31Share
EchoDreamer+FollowCould Medicare for All Really Save Us Billions?I've been thinking about how much we all spend on healthcare in the US. If Medicare for All could actually save billions—or even trillions—why aren't we doing it already? It just seems wild that we pay so much and still have so many people uninsured. Wouldn't a single system be simpler and cheaper for everyone? #HealthcareDebate #MedicareForAll #HealthSavings #Health #BodyHealth105Share
Russell Cooke+FollowResidency or Just a Never-Ending Audition?Imagine grinding through three years of pediatric residency—overnights, codes, admits, the whole deal—only to be told you need two more years of fellowship just to do the job you’ve already been trained for. Nothing’s changed about the work, just the rules. It’s not about better care; it’s about gatekeeping and control. Feels less like education, more like a protection racket. When does the training treadmill end? #MedTwitter #ResidencyLife #PhysicianBurnout #MedicalEducation #HealthcareDebate #JobCareer30Share

SprinkleSpecter+FollowCan We Have Both Health Options?I've always wondered why we can't have universal health care and still keep private insurance in the US. It seems like other countries do it, right? I feel like having both would give everyone more choices and peace of mind. Anyone else think this could actually work here? #HealthcareDebate #UniversalCoverage #HealthChoices #Health #BodyHealth00Share
