This is a must-read story out today from @cdweaver @mcgint @annawmathews @MarkMaremont.
Among the disturbing findings: More than 66K Medicare Advantage patients were diagnosed with diabetic cataracts even though they already had gotten cataract surgery, which replaces the damaged lens of an eye w/a plastic insert—making the diagnosis “anatomically impossible.”
Private insurers in the federal Medicare Advantage program made hundreds of thousands of questionable diagnoses that triggered extra taxpayer-funded payments, including outright wrong ones, a @WSJ analysis of billions of Medicare records found.
The questionable diagnoses included some for potentially deadly illnesses, such as AIDS, for which patients received no subsequent care, and for conditions people couldn’t possibly have. Often, neither the patients nor their doctors had any idea.

Baseball is amazing. @SNYtv's Gary Cohen has been broadcasting Mets games since 1989, but I've already heard him say, "I've never seen that" more than once this season.

LOL. I need a BIOS update for a server the company bought long ago, but @HPE has it behind a paywall. No warranty or service contract? No luck, even though it patches security vulnerabilities. I've never seen drivers and such behind a paywall. Is this common now?

Question for @NYPost_Mets and @AnthonyDiComo: Why is Brandon Nimmo, who has 17.2 BR WAR in 1,973 at bats, so much more valuable than Jeff McNeil, who has 16.9 BR WAR in 1,837 at bats?

Recent entries in @BCDreyer's calendar primed me to spot this error in the defensive-driver course I'm taking.

Given that the Dreyer's English calendar has been all about hyphens lately, I have a timely question for @BCDreyer: In this construction, should "deal making" be hyphenated?

Interesting. I just pulled the data to check the counts by VAX_DATE (when the vaccine was administered) instead of RECVDATE (when the report was received by VAERS). But during the period in question, there are a highly unusual number of missing VAX_DATE values .
