  • I hope y’all are joking

    CMS will partner with private companies that specialize in enhanced technologies, like AI or machine learning, to assess coverage for select items and services delivered through Medicare.

    In particular, the American Hospital Association expressed concerns regarding the participating vendor payment structure, which it says incentivizes denials at the expense of physician medical judgment.

    This is going to be even MORE corrupt than what we have today, and its going to hurt people even more. Meanwhile enriching AI tech bros off the already bloated medical system in this country.







  • Good call. According to wiki, the French escale is descended from the Latin scala (ladder)

    EDIT: I misread. The modern French word escale (port of call) descended from the Latin scala (ladder), but the similar Old French word escale/eschale (hard skin covering) came from the Old High German scala (similar meaning). BUT, the Norse skala (measuring device) mentioned in the meme DID descend from the Latin scala (ladder)!
