First in-person conference I’ve attended in 26 months. Never been so excited to see pie charts and hear about variation in surgical outcomes in my life. @MSQCPSO MPOG #longCovidwinter

Good. Fine. Tired. Okay. All one-word responses to “how are you?” that we use to avoid real conversations. Showing your cards and being open/vulnerable invites conversation which is so needed these days. Both professionally and personally. Children's Foundation

Congratulations on the Hat Trick to Michael Englesbe and Ryan Howard for their 3rd published article in HBR! And this time they partnered with Michelle Moniz on a very important topic - women’s health. bit.ly/3NbgOjW

You don’t know teen age angst if you don’t know this song #KeepOnLovingYou #REO #80s.

Absolutely nothing better than sharing beauty with those you love. My soul was soaring. #lighthouseimmmersive #vangogh #Detroit #rundontwalk

Partner with strong leaders. Engage willing partners. Collect clinically rich information that allows hospitals and physicians to optimize their care delivery. So proud of the CQIs. Thanks to all our Michigan partners. BCBSM Michigan CQIs Ryan Howard Michael Englesbe Jim Grant

If you’re going to have a hero, aim high. 42 years ago today Terry Fox was forced to stop his cross Canada run after 3000+ miles. Ran a marathon a day with a prosthetic leg. Posthumously he met his goal to raise a dollar for cancer research for every Canadian. #terryfox #hero

At the launch of today’s Blue Cross-sponsored statewide collaboration on suicide prevention. Such an important endeavor aiming for zero suicides. The statistics are eye opening. Thanks to Henry Ford Health for your leadership. BCBSM Henry Ford Health MI Mind

MBSC and BCBSM's very first annual Obesity Summit is only two days away!!! Please follow #ObesitySummit22 for a live feed the day of the event. Michigan CQIs BCBSM #ValuePartnerships

And with one note, or scream to be exact, over 50 years were gone in an instant and Roger Daltrey and The Who were rocking Detroit. What incredible power in the voice of a 78 year old. Bringing down the house with the scream of a generation who has seen it all. #thewho #detroit

Leadership in action. Addressing social determinants of health and smoking cessation prior to surgery. Great opportunity to engage people at engageable moments. Delivers impressive results to boot! Michael Englesbe

Congratulations to OPEN for their contributions to the national CDC opioid guidelines. Your leadership and partnership is making an impact and saving lives. Jennifer Waljee Michael Englesbe Chad M Brummett Michigan CQIs

Friday, run, don’t walk at 8 a.m to TODAY to see Painless: The Opioid Musical. Based on a true story and developed for young people, a truly moving first hand recount of the challenges of people dealing with opioid use disorder. OPEN Chad M Brummett @FamAgainstNarc

It’s heartwarming when your 18 year old son requests Andy Williams on a road trip #itsthemostwonderfultimeoftheyear

We’ve not seen this much drama involving Kevin and a house since 1990. #Speakerofthehouse #KevinMcCarthy #homealone

Love those moments of pure bliss. In Cabo for my nephews wedding with my family, both my brothers families and their adult children and all the significant others. Couldn’t be happier. Enjoy the small moments #love #Family #contentment

Class act. Thanks U of M for supporting your brothers and sisters. MSU Shadows never sounded so moving #SpartansWill #SpartanStrong

So apparently there’s a coronation tomorrow?!? #uk

As a blood clot survivor and BCBSM sponsor of a statewide quality improvement effort focused on improving anticoagulation care, I am thrilled to see the TODAY promoting blood clot awareness. Great job to Geoff Barnes, Program Co-Director of MAQI2 for getting the word out!

Kudos to the Obstetrics Initiative for their efforts to make a difference for Michigan women and newborns. Addressing elective c-sections, health equity and inequities, and more. This quote shared at today’s OBI meeting is particularly eye-opening. #OBI #maternalmortality
