McConnell Says Senate Republicans Might Revisit Obamacare Repeal

David Morgan  |  October 18, 2018

WASHINGTON (Reuters)—Republicans could try again to repeal Obamacare if they win enough seats in U.S. elections next month, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said on Wednesday, calling a failed 2017 push to repeal the healthcare law a “disappointment.” In a forecast of 2019 policy goals tempered by uncertainty about who will win the congressional elections,…

New research used multidomain function assessment to better understand the physical and cognitive functioning of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.

ACR Policy: The Mouse That Roared

Chris Morris, MD  |  September 30, 2018

Do you remember the 1959 movie, The Mouse That Roared? Through a few small actions, the Duchy of Grand Fenwick, a small, often overlooked principality, becomes a superpower on the world map overnight. In many ways, rheumatology has been in the same position. We are a small specialty; we don’t have well-known diseases. Although our…

TNFi Exposure in Utero

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  September 26, 2018

Vinet et al. evaluated the risk of serious infections in children of women with RA exposed to TNFi’s in the gestational period compared with unexposed offspring of women with RA, as well as with children from the general population. Although the research did not demonstrate a marked excess risk for serious infections, the authors could not exclude a differential risk according to specific TNFi, with infliximab potentially resulting in a threefold increase in the risk of serious infections compared with other TNFi’s. More studies are needed…

Is Concierge Medicine Right for Your Practice?

Steven M. Harris, Esq.  |  September 20, 2018

It is no surprise to practicing physicians that the healthcare landscape is becoming more and more unpredictable. Because of the volatility surrounding today’s healthcare environment, such as increasing overhead costs and decreasing reimbursement rates, many physicians are asking themselves whether there is a different, more lucrative way to practice medicine. Concierge medicine may just be…

Compliance Means More than Just Paperwork

Anita Henderson-Sumpter, MHA, MBA, CHC, CPC  |  September 20, 2018

Effective management of healthcare compliance requires an office compliance plan that stays current with changing government regulations, payer requirements, office operations and technology. Many still wonder, why is a compliance program needed—if something isn’t broken, don’t fix it, right? This is not always the case; compliance is an essential part of practice operations, but providing…
