Paths to Interoperability
A recent article exposes the woeful silo-ing of public health: Data often has to be faxed and re-entered into new systems manually. I wonder whether the path to complete integration requires adopting a single, worldwide, FHIR-based standard (which is time-consuming and probably requires jettisoning old database systems) or programming these systems to translate data from one format to another.

Hey Nurse, Got Resistance?
Have you ever found yourself resisting change? Has your nursing career stalled because you ' re afraid of taking a risk or doing something different? Change is indeed the only constant in the universe (aside from death and taxes), so it ' s something that we simply need to get comfortable with, over and over again.Magical ThinkingMany nurses and non-nurses alike can engage in magical thinking at various times throughout their careers. "Oh, I don ' t need a BSN; they ' ll never close the doors on associate degree nurses. " Or maybe something like this: "I think I ' ll become a nurse entrepreneur. I ' ll just tell people I h...

Congress Should Require TPS for Immigrants from Nations With Armed Conflicts
David J. BierSince 1990, the executive branch has had the authority from Congress to provide Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to people already in the United States who are from countries in which an “ongoing armed conflict within the state" exists. A bipartisan group in Congress wrote a letter to the Biden administration requesting that it designate Ukraine for TPS, and then they also proposed legislation torequire it to use its authority.Finally, the administrationhas relented (with the full details still to be filled in). But Congress should still recognize the procedural problem with giving total discretion to th...

The study is based on data through 2019, the most recent year for which there is internati onally comparable data, so it does not account for the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.Although the United States maintained its rank at 6th in this year ’s index, it is worrisome that its long‐term declin...
