Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Medicare pay-for-value goals

I think this needs to be done even faster. I would highly suggest that as soon as you enter the hospital you inform the staff that payment is contingent upon full recovery. Unless we start holding our stroke medical professionals feet to the fire will we ever get significant advances in stroke recovery. The existing status quo is a complete f*cking failure.

HHS Doubles Down on the Shift from Volume to Value

 This might be the only way we will ever get our doctors and hospitals to actually get better results than the current failures of tPA only working completely 12% of the time,  10% full recovery rate and no stroke rehabilitation protocols.
However there is tremendous pushback from the medical world.

The Time Is Now To Fix Medicare ACOs

Accountable Care Organizations

Why should they be exempt from truth in labeling laws? If I am paying for a service, stroke rehab for example. Why should the 90% of people who don't fully recover pay for useless services?
