Introductory Paragraph: How will #ObamaCare aka the Affordable Care Act (#ACA) Effect You, Your Training (#ACGME, #GME), Your Career (#CiM), and Your Patients (#HCR)?  Using recent publications, real time resources, and social networking, we will discuss how the ACA’s implementation will effect the residents’ and faculty’s  professional lives (training experience, career choices, personal finance, access to patients, etc) in the next 3 to 5 years.  This will be a full participatory educational experience.  Students, Residents, and Faculty will be expected to familiarize themselves with the reading materials in advance.  Tweets (@UBSurgery) will be used prior to, during and after the scheduled Grand Rounds to help the attnedees inform themselves, their peers and their followers to better understand the effects of the #ACA on various aspects of their professional lives.  Attendee diversity, i.e., cognitives à proceduralists, primary care advocates à specialty care advocates,  federalists à libertarians, liberal à conservatives,  Twitter savvy à Twitter novice,  academic career bound à hospitalists à private practice bound, NYS residents à non-residents, trainee --> master surgeon, etc., is encouraged and will make the educational experience richer. All opinions will be valued, and professionalism and ethics will be emphasized.  Your IQ will be helpful, but your EQ will serve you better.  If you want to reinforce your adult learning skills and have some fun doing it, this Grand Rounds course is highly recommended.


Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session, you should:

  • Understand the pros and cons of the #ACA and how it will affect your training, your career choices, your practice environment, and your personal finances.
  • Have better insight into your professional metamorphosis from a student-doctor to a physician-healer, from surgical trainee to practicing surgeon, from faculty member to surgical leader.
  • Understand the basic information for the  meaningful use of  Social Media (Twitter, FaceBook, & YouTube) for their personal and profession needs and the risks, benefits, and alternatives of  this state of the art technology (#HCSM, #SoMe, #SoMed).
