Bloggers are great

Perusing the blogroll on Managed Care Matters over the morning cup, I had that oh-so-rare flash of insight – the blog world is populated by some incredibly intelligent, deeply insightful, prescient folks. Some nutjobs too, but let’s stay positive.
I know, what a “duh” comment. But really – here’s some examples…
Effect Measure follows the bird flu as only public health experts, and I do mean experts, can.
Roy Poses et al at Health Care Renewal dig deep, really deep, into ethical issues, including Pfizer and publicly-funded medical schools. And there’s a lot of muck to be raked by Dr. P.
Kevin Piper posts occasionally, but thoroughly. Really thoroughly. Read his piece on Medicare drug plans, risk corridors, and why smart players are going to make lots and lots and lots of money on Part D.
Medpundit is written by a practicing doc, who (among other talents) has this neat ability to find and report on strange, unsettling, and downright scary happenings in medicine and environs. Here’s one on a report that Chinese prison officials are “harvesting” organs from executed prisoners – if that doesn’t make your skin crawl…
And there’s lots more. So the next time you’re stuck on that interminable conference call, cruise on over to the blogroll and get entertained, educated, and enlightened. You may even find stuff that will be useful in the call…
