    Terms like "value-based care" have become so common in healthcare that we don’t often consider what they should really mean. The outcome we want is pretty simple: better care at lower prices.

        I planned my retirement carefully. I took into account inflation. I missed the mark on pharmaceuticals. My medication has sky rocketed in price. It is criminal.

        Its now over 100 days since fed judge ordered Trump admin to reunite families. No progress. Do you have children? Think about it. Trump admin had no plan in place to keep track of children. Keep this story alive in the media. Trump admin can't hide.

        Take a long look at the history of #Capitation - it didn't work. Not at the State level - it will not work at the national level either. If you want a viable financial model - there are 2 years worth of proposals sitting at @WhiteHouse Read the mail @POTUS #KiLLObamaCare

        @SecAzar remember your story about taking ur child to ER for stitches? I have a type 1 diabetic child thanks to u as CEO at Lilly and lack of anything now- my kiddos future looks bleak w lack of access to affordable insulin & supplies. Force transparency on pharma /non-profits.

        So you were part of the team that tripled insulin prices - shame on you. Insulin is now 300 a vial that’s close to 900 a month for a type 1 diabetic. I wouldn’t brag about working for Lilly. #insulin4all

        This person has a job. They are working and probably have zero to do with pricing. Shame on you for trying to shame someone for working/making a living.

        “Probably have zero to do with pricing” - irrelevant. This is the parent of an insulin dependent child, a lifesaving medication that has tripled in price, speaking to a @lillypharma employee and you are shaming them for shaming Lilly? 🙄

        See @realDonaldTrump's Repeal/Replace, Repeal Now/Replace Later, Repeal/No Replace, Just Let ACA Die/I Won’t Take The Blame plans. Trump does not care one teensy bit out us or our healthcare.

        What about the lack of care by ORR for the children separated from their parents at the U.S. border and placed by HHS with its partners? And what about the children who were not reunited with their parents because they had already been deported? This conduct is immoral.
