One of the greatest myths as a #doctor about #healthcare #business is that it’s all about RVUs.

We talk in RVUs & we measure ourselves in RVUs, but this is a distraction, because the translation of RVU to actual $ is where the healthcare complex has won.

Denials, appeals, collections, rate negotiations, that is where we have lost to insurers.

So excited that our own @davidleegumd kicked off the NARUS 2023 meeting in Las Vegas by performing a live robotic radical prostatectomy surgery demonstrating his bladder neck sparing and Hood nerve sparing! #NARUS2023

We are beyond thrilled to welcome @RohitBhatt_, Ameen Chaudry and @MitchellLOLeary to the @UCI_Urology family!

We did a survey looking at patient perceived barriers (prior to covid) that’s part of the preop counseling - beyond patient selection & technique, it’s setting expectations and communication if a complication did occur.

Congratulations @anantm for leading this collaboration! Happy to see @PennUrology part of this! @davidleegumd @lalpritu

Dr. David Lee successfully completed first robotic prostatectomy as UCI Urology faculty. Seems like outpatient RRP is the new standard. Great to have you back at UCI!

This is what H.Res 908 says. Can someone explain to me why so many Republicans--including many I thought were fair minded people--voted against this? Like what piece of this is so objectionable?

Words do not do this justice, so just watch it.

Thank you @Schwarzenegger
