Sunshine

From Jonathan Edwards (video):
"Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
Don't know what he's asking

He tells me I'd better get in line
Can't hear what he's saying
When I grow up I'm going to make it mine
But these aren't dues I been paying

(Chorus)
How much does it cost, I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost, I'll try it
But he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, Sunshine

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone he's tried to run my life
Don't know what he's asking

Working starts to make me wonder where
The fruits of what I do are going
He says in love and war all is fair
But he's got cards he ain't showing

(Chorus)

Sunshine come on back another day
I promise you I'll be singing
This old world, she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells'll be ringing."
I'll be heading to Washington, DC on my own dime next week. Seems there are plenty of people who want to know more about the American Board of Internal Medicine.

Who knows? Maybe I'll learn a thing or two, also.

Is there a new House Select Committee on ABIM? I can't wait to see the ABIM principals being questioned about their Form 990s and other financial reporting.

Thanks, Wes. It was like returning to USDAN if only for a couple of minutes...

May your visit be very fruitful, Lisa30092

That's You & Me in the Key of B.

135 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
Phone: (202) 224 - 3744
Fax: (202) 224-6020

Tell him a good friend of the late Senator Ted sent you.
Which one? He'll know who.
Just tell him I can verify.
Take it home to the land of domicile.

15 minute song will do.

If you need some help we'll be there too!

Testimony said...

Wes, I will give any testimony, based on what I know, plus copious research data regarding what I know of relevant information and documents.
I would be willing to prepare to put forward any arguments. Not legal, just factual.

I also may have legal claim if anyone wishes to file a class action lawsuit with me.

Or I will go it alone until others join. Multiple grounds for lawsuits, even qui tam.

Just respond to Testimony if you want help, and I will email directly to you or anyone that wishes to hear me out, before during or after your fact finding/collaborative journey. In situ or on the phone.

I will say there is a strong case against the ABIM and anyone with the will, power and attorneys are welcome to join.

Money, yes to that too? I will proceed on my own dime. But we should all be prepared to help. That is how important this is.

Anyone else with help or information, contact Wes directly! I would assume he could use it. I believe, Dr. Fisher has his email written on his site.

Do you have copies of the original archived articles of incorporation?
They are very important as a document trail as you know.

Power in Numbers

Patience
look at the sky
listen to the wind
ask yourself "who am I"

put your ear to the ground
shhh! Listen
the movement is rumbling in the earth
feel it all around

the falseness of their lies
falls from the sky
crumbling
like an old picture

the mind is a comet
your heart a falcon
the wind is your ally
all the earth has heard your cries

look around
feel the immensity of the world
octaves of vibrating light
from one plucked chord
comes all
life's diversity

if I told you it all started
with only three colors
painted on a pallet of darkness
would you believe me

your mind is a comet
the heart a red falcon
the solemn sun is your friend
'cause the earth has heard your cries

a friend in the beginning
is a friend in the end

Testimony -

Any and all confidential help/info would be appreciated. I will not share. Send to wes - at - medtees dot com and give me some background on the info sent. I'll add it to the maw and update you on what I learn. Many, many people seem to want action or a way out. This is just a start.

No money is needed at the present time.

I understand who's funding whom in Washington and will likely listen and learn for now. A few meetings, then back for clinic. Where it goes after that will depend on what I see, hear, and learn.

Thanks for your interest and assistance.

DrWes said...

Testimony-
One more thing: happy to talk via phone, too - just send me you contact info if you (or others) would prefer to communicate by voice. If I don't pick up - leave a message (clinical work takes priority)- I'll call when I can.
Cheers-

Did the same. Went to DC. Met "my" representatives. One question I was asked was whether or not ABIM is contracted with CMS or any federal agent. Nothing much they can do if not. NQF is though. If bad outcome can be shown as the result of the laws passed, they might be able to work on some amendments.

Thank you Dr. Wes, and anyone who would like to do the same - advocating for ourselves!

Grassley's Got the Bases Loaded and It's a Fresh Game with ABIM v. Salas said...

Committee on the Judiciary
The Committee on the Judiciary is one of the Senate’s original standing committees and has a broad and influential jurisdiction, including crime, antitrust, bankruptcy, intellectual property, the federal courts and judges, civil liberties, constitutional law and amendments, and immigration.

When a physician private information, etc. was seized in 2009 and then used to persecute this was a crime. If one feels personally "ravaged & raped" by the ABIM, theft of rights, loss of will and abusive usury/humiliation of your person(as an individual or as a large body of physicians, fight them or leave them. Illegal seizure should be presented. Put to the ABIM where it counts in court. In essence with seizure of property and personal information, a violation to the sanctity of every American's rights took place. Permanent residents have the same rights. I believe the ABIM abused power and misrepresented facts. Liars. With misrepresented facts and abuse of legal/moral power this led to an improper writ to batter your door seize your privacy, your speech, assembly, etc. These things are of utmost importance. Also the ABIM culled names that were less likely they thought to fight back. 1964 discrimination act covers this discriminatory act. I will take this up with our federal judges and this Senate committee. Join me.

Judiciary Relevancy for ABIM: Crime, anti-trust, intellectual property, federal courts and judges, civil liberties, constitutional law and amendments.
(ABIM may be involved in bankruptcy soon, so toss that in.)

Committee on Finance. "Quality of Life." Committee’s jurisdiction, which includes all tax matters, health care, Social Security; Medicare, Medicaid, social services, unemployment compensation, tariffs and international trade. Legislation acted on by the Committee on Finance raises virtually all federal revenue, and expenditures authorized by this committee represent as much as two-thirds of the federal budget.

ABIM relevancy: Tax (concerned with non-profit status, excessive inurement, fraud cheating), health care, social security, Medicare Medicaid, social services, tariffs, international trade.
(Rural healthcare is a strong interest as well.)

Committee on the Budget. Responsible for drafting an annual budget plan for Congress. The budget resolution prepared by the Budget Committee sets out a broad blueprint for Congress with respect to the total levels of revenues and spending for the federal government as a whole. Other committees in the Senate and House of Representatives prepare the legislation that establishes specific tax and spending policies.

Joint Committee on Taxation. Committee on Finance. Members include five senators who serve on the Finance Committee and five members of the House of Representatives who serve on the Committee on Ways and Means. The Joint Committee reports on the effects of taxes and the administration of taxes.

Taxpayers are being cheated. Forced to pay for Cassel's golden chute and Mike McCauley's free-ride. Now read the following. The cheaters did not need to steal. It's egomaniac money going to be bequeathed to have their frozen body and ego stroked when their dead. Give the money back now, Chris and Mike. You cheated.
http://www.psr.org/support/ways-to-donate/legacy-society/mccally-and-cassel.html

Senator Grassley is a member of all three.
I encourage everyone to call his offices and email. He is very concerned with the above.

CKC BS said...

1.Every resident and fellow is a government funded employee and most researchers.

2.Most of the residents who attended ABR for 20 years paid with government money.
Arora settled with ABIM and gave money to the ABIM which belonged to the government. That is taxpayer money. I intend to ask for it back for the people whether it is given back, time-barred or not. The ABIM has cheated the taxpayer and the patient, but especially the physician. The physicians are guilty for enabling this sickness and the spread of ABIM trademarked brand of corruption.

3. Choosing Wisely, with it's illicit transfers of money, which inured Cassel, Baron, Strozeski, Langdon, Benson, Kimball targets/targeted Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans to cut their fair share which they paid for, especially the Vets.

4.The ABIM is an NGO, but actually it is involved with the government through choosing wisely and other organizations. This done through a network of NGO who act under the radar without regulation. But in essence the control comes from many individuals who are tied to CMS. Chris Cassel is one of those individuals. So in essence the ABIM is a complicated quasi-governmental agency masquerading as non-profit organization.

5. The organization stopped being a non-profit NGO in 1965. The paper and money trail is there to prove it.

6. Chris Cassel is the laziest bureaucrat of all time and left a clear, but sloppy trail of paper and money. Among other things she is guilty of is claiming authorship. I intend to challenge many of her assertions on public record while under oath with the proper authorities. I invite any legislator or attorney to do the same. Cassel is a fraud. Look at her first papers and then compare. Look at her speech patterns and thought patterns forensically. She is lying about authorship and she will be and should be put to the test for all her other statements.

7. Let's open up Cassel's physician/patient records to see what kind of physician she is. She claimed to be a physician serving Medicare patients all her career. BS.

8.Cassel as a non-physician has done more to harm the seniors than any professional medical bureaucrat in the history of the United States. There are many fine points on her advisory tot he president of the United States, who is vulnerable to her just like a senior or veteran. She has misled our president and Joe Biden on the state of our healthcare and how to improve it.

Testing My Rage said...

The first time I heard about the ABIM, I said to myself,

"I've really gotta bad feeling about this."

Now that feeling has turned into rage!

MaryJoe said...

there are many things about the abim that trouble me
what hits most to the core is the silence we get from them

SwissGirl2008 said...

I heard it through the grapevine that not only did Cassel not write all that she claims, I heard she often did not proof for errors--leaving it for others. Oral history says she was working/thinking more like a politician not much accessible even then, but a bit more human.
And on more than a few occasions she did not even read the papers or know the content.
Question; is that typical for an "up and coming" high level bureaucrat to not participate at the appropriate level one would expect. Certainly it's not true about the grunts going through 20 or more rewrites, and many more proofs. & those darn charts, graphs and symbols drove us mad at times, no all the time.

What about when Cassel worked at the ABIM? It's said she did not work there, but was paid for the job. I'd like to know what that's all about and why she got all that money for doing nothing. Except spy dish out the heat. Really what was she doing there? I'm so anxious about our data being stolen after Baron played the hit man. Maybe he's at least trying to change, but I still don't trust him. Board is all yes people, who sold out for money or easy street. Rich Baron is no different.

I heard about the west coast relaxed style of med practice; it's from what I heard even more true about Cassel as dean of OHSU. She hired new administrative heads/assistants to do all the work for her--and even did it in politically correct ways. That's good. It seems she was just hanging in waiting for the ABIM job. And there were really bad clinical problems at OHSU. It was top-heavy with researchers. Heard that from someone who left. Light on surgical and researcher docs seeing difficult complicated patients without proper experience. When I was looking to go into research somewhere, I noticed so many docs/researcher there had Robert Wood Johnson "name tags." That looked one-sided too.

These are old stories I heard, so take it for what it's worth.
Cassel left to work at the ABIM and now I hear she was not really there either.
Lot of stories about others doing things for her and not a lot of love, if you know what I mean. One dean's assistant friend of hers was left hanging in Portland after she left, I think she was from New York or Pennsylvania top school/teaching hospital. I think she had to get a job in Phoenix if I recall.
The ABIM always gave me a stomach ache and palpitations just to think of them. All those "on a recorded line" phone calls to them were heavy and the phone staff seemed to be so stiff and unhappy. That seems to be a lot better now that Cassel is gone, so here's one good thing to say for Dr. Baron's ABIM. Take it when you can, Rich!
But they will never get my trust or vote after all the disgraceful things they have done to docs. I am ditto on seeing them like a ghost I do not want from out of the past. Never want any relationship, but I do feel sorry for them all making all that big money. Lonely work.
I still can't figure out what they do for it. The test sucks. MOC is a money scam from before the get-go, and Cassel and Baron are Washington and BC KP "cronyites." I think maybe Mamma Cassel was always working for the other teams--anybody but docs. There, I'm glad I said it!

SwissGirl2008 said...

I won't fall for changing words. The facts remain I have 20/20 vision on the Assessment 2020 team.

One weird thing to end with. The golden parachute husband that stayed at the condo with Cassel was part of the million miler club. Had, I suspect, plenty of miles to use and not have docs pay for his travel expenses, etc. He was flying into Moscow BOAC not just to sing and shout for the Soviet girls, but he worked as part of the A team--for years. From Los Alamos or the like. This Moscow resident I knew said a Lithuanian? lead cardiologist hated the Soviet Union and the rumor there in USSR was he and some others were not doves but hawks in disguise. I could not even find Cassel's husband anywhere on line or knew his name until today. (Remember Dan Akroid, Chevy Chase. "Doctor," "Doctor," Doctor," "Doctor.") I'm afraid these guys in Washington are bringing back the cold war. I thought we were friends now, then not, then we are comrades again. Ukrainian resident said Cassel and husband had more money than V. Putin. This one liked Putin more than our boys.
Get the facts for us Dr. Wes when you go to Washington.

I Dance Within. The "seeker" and "wise one" sitting beneath a tree.


The Seeker: Who are the "People of the Book?" (Traditionally, this is understood as the followers of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.)

The Wise One: The people of the Book are the people of "faith, hope, and love."

Seeker: Who are the people of "faith, hope, and love?"

Wise: It would be better if you asked yourself not, "Who are they?"
but ask yourself rather, "What is 'faith, hope, and love'?"

Seeker: Yes, that is good council, but then what about the Buddhist and the Hindu?

Wise: Well, you might look at it like this: they are really all one, but with different capacities, modalities, emphases, strengths and weaknesses.
Look up at the sun. What do you see when the cloud obstructs the light?

You see rays, don't you. Yes?
Then imagine these rays like fingers of divine light.

Seeker: Yes, I can see it. It is clear and I even feel it.
There are rays but there is only one source for that light.

Wise: Now, hold you hands up to the sun.
How could you cup the sun without the five fingers of your hand.
How could do anything without all the fingers of the hand?
And because people don't understand this fundamental truth, is why we have global wars and strife and suffering across the land.

Seeker: And the what about all the rest of the teachings like the ancient indigenous beliefs of Africa and the Americas?

Wise: Well then you might as well add Australia, Japan, China, and Polynesia? And then you will ask me what were those inscriptions and paintings about we have discovered in the 40k to 100k year old caves. The dates keep moving back, you know.
Now, have I made you even more confused?

Seeker: No! I can see it for myself now as the clouds are parting from the sun.
I can feel the warmth of all the ways and rays inside me as I dance within.

For what it's worth...

As Wes goes to Washington DC, in my mind...
He has already won his case. Goliath has already been slain...
Dr. Fisher is a moral giant that Washington has not seen in a long time...
No one can predict what he might say or what he will find

Wes has already proven his arguments
And won his case in the hearts and minds
Of hundreds of thousands of men and women
Who suffer injustice and abuse serving on the frontlines.

Sail on with God's speed, wise Gulliver
the problems that exist in this country and the world
were not created in a week
and they will not be solved in a day

No, the ills that afflict this great nation
cannot be solved in just a few hours
in fact they can't even be expressed
within the confines of an already busy day...

Sail on, sail on, the journey will be long...
speak and listen for now, come what may
they only have moral and mental spit wads in Lilliput
and you have already won us over anyway

ALIEN CONTACT MADE While ABIM Remains Completely Silent Enshrouded in Mystery!

WOW! SETI reports FIRST ALIEN CONTACT MADE 1400 light years from Earth.

DYSAN SWARMS detected around a strange sun similar to the Earth! An unknown planet in orbit around a far away sun is beaming pulses of energy and data packets to the Earth in regular intervals - just enough to power and run an enigmatic testing company at 510 Walnut Street in Philadelphia, PA.

Data packets seem to be flowing both ways to and from the distant home planet known only as KIC 846 2852 and a similarly enigmatic entity known as the ABIM Foundation.
Contact has been confirmed and SETI researchers and investigators are on their way to the Philadelphia site.

ABIM executives Richard Baron and Lynn Langdon are organizing a new taskforce to investigate the claims. SETI's Allen telescope has confirmed that 14% of the ABIM's energy has been going toward powering the Walnut Street testing company, while the rest of the power is being consumed primarily by the executive offices and Lynn Langdon's luxurious private lavatory.

The ABIM condo management firm spokes, Shirley MOC, denies any aliens living at the Ayer Building. The Mercedes chauffeur, James MOC III, empathized with aliens and admitted that his parents were aliens. James is being considered for a board position as no one much seems interested as veteran bureaucrats flee the Walnut offices.

"We have only used this condo for domestic and foreign individuals typically only for top priority clients, ABIM executive family members on official business collaborating with the ABIM staff concerning the biochemical idiosyncrasies of their executives. We did have frequent visits from, Christine Cassel, Mike McCauley, George Soros and a hamster named Hank. But the latter has stopped after the shredding parties ended and Hank's cage and droppings were discarded.

Ok, we admit, once in a "blue ribbon panel" moon there were unofficial visits from the COO's mother."

One reporter on site took pictures of mutilated cows and golden sheaves of radioactive wheat in the ABIM dumpster. Samples of grain heads tested confirmed the wheat was from the Gower Peninsula in Wales, Great Britain. Traces of unemployment and bituminous coal were a dead give away.

Meanwhile we still have not gotten any response from Richard Baron over the enigmatic ABIM Foundation, the secret money transfers, the domicile questions, the omissions and misstatements on their 990 tax forms, and on and on.

The longer the silence the longer the list grows.

We will be carrying this story in full and will give more details when they are known.

Background article: Still the ABIM responds to reporters' hard questions with silence and alien stares.

Planet MOC Identified. The Day the Earth Stood Still! said...

"ALIEN CONTACT MADE While ABIM Remains Completely Silent Enshrouded in Mystery!
WOW! SETI reports FIRST ALIEN CONTACT MADE 1400 light years from Earth."

Wes, we have just confirmed the above article through eliminating everything except the truth. WOW. Richard Baron, Christine K Cassel, Lynn Langdon, Hank the hamster, Eric Holmboe, David Cole, Naomi O'Grady, et al, have some serious questions to answer!

About the ABIM and the alien back account "ABIM Foundation": The organization is a foreign NGO with profit motive. It has created and amassed a hundred million dollars in its WAR CHEST with which it plans to invade the healthcare delivery system in the United States of America, take control, and then will try to surround the entire world with other NGO's.

We cannot allow this!

Please meet with the President while in Washington. Tell him everything of the alien life at the ABIM, and which now surrounds him in the White House with intent to harm us all. The Death of life on the Planet may be imminent.

No, I am not a conspiracy nut. I have investments in every part of the globe. You know me, but because of SEC rulings protecting investors in the US, I cannot identify myself at this time. I am trying to change these onerous SEC rules.

We are very concerned about ABIM and Christine Cassel as a possible invasion force. Aliens are living among us! The ABIM is the mother ship of evil intent. We have confirmed also that the ABIM Foundation does not exist at all.

ABIMF is just a slush fund to bring back the TV series "My Favorite Martian" to make us believe aliens are good. But Brown, 1838 et al, proves otherwise. ABIMF is just a façade to disguise the real purpose: It is a slush fund for golden parachutes primarily for the alien leaders among us and the eventual demise of everything. The death grip of power will come through fraud and racketeering with the use of deferred funds and dubious never-never-land accounting methods.

ABMS is a co-conspiratorial alien agency that was founded a few years in advance of the mother ship, ABIM.

We would like Bob Wachter with the IPC, the Intelligent Planet Committee, to form a new anti-hospitality society on the Earth to investigate this further. We have just wired the gentleman funds from our offshore account as seed money for this investment in a safer future.

We also understand that Bob Wachter is the only man on the Earth that can merge with another and become that entity, a technique previously know as the "Vulcan Mind Meld." We have seen how he can morph into anything he wants to fool us, so he is the only person who can fool the aliens and win their trust. We are hoping that he will get with the DOJ and present evidence in exchange for amnesty, as we know he is one of them, but he would like to "distance himself" and get away from the alien culture and be a real patriotic American again.

We also understand that Christine K Cassel is an advisor to the President of the United States. We would like you, Westerby Fisher, to expose this imposter to the Attorney General of the United States and provide evidence to the former heads of the Veteran's Administration, which fought off several alien attacks in Hollywood, Washington, DC, and elsewhere in the past on our dear planet.

What's at stake. Truth, love, beauty, all life on the blue planet.

After five (or more) lipstick marks were discovered on Richard Baron's neck and casual "unbuttoned look", ABIM's Lynn Langdon locked the excitable BO$$ BARON in his office. Subsequently Lynn had to change ABIM's ever-changing policy once more. Langdon has closed the executive level offices to Rich's new visitors.

Apparently the Fifth Harmony girl group was on an ANTI MOC SPREE painting their luscious red graffiti all over Rich with their gorgeous lips.

ABMS - 'The Day After' said...

The ABIM's Treachery. Don't say I didn't warn you.


Sing a Song of Evil

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye.
Four and twenty blackbirds,
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing;
Wasn't that a dainty dish,
To set before the king?

The king was in his counting house,
Counting out his money;
The queen was in the parlour,
Eating bread and honey.

The maid was in the garden,
Hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird
And pecked off her nose.

What happened then?
Was that the only possible end?
No, no, no and no!
Physicians learned how to defend.

They sent for the king's doctor,
who sewed it on again;
He sewed it on so neatly,
the seam was never seen.
or:
There was such a commotion,
that little Jenny wren
Flew down into the garden,
and put it back again.

Only Jenny and a doctor?
Standing up for what is right?
Are they the only ones who care
Are they the only ones who see!

Pick up the damn phone and fight!

After the next political bomb drops,
Sorry it'll be too late.
What am I telling you?

Here's something to cheer you all up with about U.S. foreign policy. This is where Christine K Cassel gets her social engineering playbook and script from. Please wake up.

Presstitutes At Their Work — Paul Craig Roberts
former Deputy Treasurer of the United States of America.
http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2015/10/24/presstitutes-at-their-work-paul-craig-roberts/

Washington and its "stakeholders of new invention" are carrying out the same foreign policies toward Americans through displacing dumbshit physicians and dumbshit patients with propaganda wars causing a mass exodus of ignoramuses who flee the land of "common sense medical practice" for the Promised Land of "Choosing Wisely".

Choosing Wisely is nothing but Greek-style IMF-imposed austerity under the ruse of ABIM Rich Baron, NQF Chris Cassel, and ABMS Lois "Maggie" Nora newspeak.

Let's give our last respects to the dumbshit fake "professionalism" of the American Board of Internal Medicine and its dumbshit executives.

Let's hope Americans wake up and throw out the dumbshits at the ABIM, ABMS, and NQF for good!

Note: "Presstitute" refers to the "sack of shit" lying press if you did not hear that term before.

Let's hope Dr. Wes finds more than dumbshit politicians in Washington on his visits to the Dirksen shrine.

Philly Gossip Today. The News How You Want It When You Want It.

Philadelphia Dirt CERTIFIED AS IT HAPPENS

As you recall Rich Baron has been locked up in his offices for several days moaning to get out. He is apparently pining for five new friends from the girl group Fifth Harmony. Langdon tried to explain the girls were just ANTI MOC FANATICS who felt the ABIM had been corrupted beyond repair, but he could not listen or hear any of it.
Let's cut Rich some slack, ok. After all, who among you all out there has not been hot to trot over politics, science, getting a new pet, food fetish, micro brew, stronger drink, or anything that just makes us very hot inside! That's how strongly Rich feels about MOC that he is willing to give it all up just for one more chance at playing ball with a 5 on 1 disadvantage. Don't you get it about convictions. He does not care. He wants to lose so he can get on with his new life too. The old just don't cut it...You can have discipline if you really love something or someone.
Rich has proved the ANTI MOC movement right. He's bored with it all. He's hungry to get what he's missed too. For those gals he'd study and stay up all night too.

Anyway, after cleaning the barrage of red succulent lipstick of his "person", which he found it very hard to part with, Lynn Langdon has let Rich Baron out of his cage for a photo op in the lobby of the ABIM.

Here he is below. Live from Mt. Airy, the capitol ABIM speak, the second to none.
Sixth Harmony putting all the detractors in cheers over his new found passion for exploration of life and the underlying science.

Dr. Baron, what do you have say about your new found views?

I tell you this right now in front of the whole world. I love you all. And if these girls are ANTI MOC, then gosh darn it, so am I. The hell with MOC. I love you phone people. I am one of you now. It feels GRRRREEAT! I mean it now, we just really really really really really got it f****** wrong. I'm damn sorry for being her who**...really sorry...

Langdon has just entered the lobby and ushered excitable Rich into the elevator up to the executive penthouse offices. "Rich, god damn it man, what is Chris going to think!"

Don't even bother reading this trashy rag paper link below. It's all rehearsed gossip. Where do they get those old geezers like...We know when the hot eye is glowing and the cold eye of reason grows dim...

We carry the live certified news as it happens. Really Mr. Airy. Rich Baron. What names. Is this just some damn mystery play invented by the government to get these quality boys and girls to take a hair cut in pay.

It does cost the taxpayer and taxman a lot.

MWOH RICH U da BO$$ THANKS FOR THINKING ABOUT US

Hey Rich, from Ally Brooke Hernandez, Normani Hamilton, Dinah Jane Hansen, Camila Cabello, and Lauren Jauregui! MWOH! MWOH! MWOH! MWOH! MWOH!

I know we are banned from seeing you, Rich but...

Here's a friend of ours. Lynn does not know her. She needs some counseling. She might want to be a doc, but she's on the fence because of MOC and afraid of never being free again. There's a pool of candidates who are running from the ABIM. Please let her in. She has real love for life and medicine...help her...and everyone

There will be no new docs by the year 2020.
Give us integrity again Rich. End MOC altogether or you'll have nothing.
Seize the moment. Time is running through your fingers like sand, just like a woman you once loved...

From these excellent fun eye-witness reports on the ABIM, I get the sense that employees and executives who work there have a difficult time finding who they are. Especially Rich. Seems to have women issues and standing up for himself. Is that why he was chosen. What do you women in charge have on him that you can tickle his button and he does whatever you want.

Is he a puppet for that Cassel woman everone hates? Is that how it works. In the military we have a chain of command and I'll serve and salute any man or woman who is above me.
But I would be damned if I'd salute or serve Langdon and Cassel. They have done evil to others and should be reported to their superiors immediately. Everybody serves someone or something above them.

From the fun stories, sounds like Rich is soul searching and Lynn is being the same old controlling ornery Lynn Christine Langdon. She still has not found herself apart from the ABIM. Lynn has still not found herself apart from Christine Cassel. Is there life for anyone after Cassel or after the ABIM?

Anybody find this soap opera strange, bizarre, and funny like me?

The process for a Federal Government sponsored investigation has now begun. Rich Baron and the ABIM will rue the day they decided to take on the very physicians to whom they owe their existence. Next stop- the IRS and the ABIM Non Profit Designation and their Lobbying activities. THANK YOU MR KROLL

Who is Christine Cassel?

Is there a bifurcated political process in play? Do we ever get the truth?
Open up the records of ABIM's day planner and "punch cards."

How many days did Cassel show up. How many hours did she work. I want a record on all of the executives regarding their work logs. What did they do and accomplish at the Walnut St. offices.

What percentage of time was spent protecting the public?

What are the differences between private discussions, plans; and what is told/revealed to the taxpayer/citizen.

I want transparency from the ABIM and the government.

Is there a press that is free that gets at the truth.
It appears the press has been bought! Everyone of the major news "services."

Who the hell hijacked our healthcare system! I want answers.

Who the f*** compromised the Medicare trustees!

Medicare Reform Democratic National Plan 1995 said...

Is the ABIM liable for higher rate of deaths and increased morbidity documented and undocumented among seniors? Are statistics being manipulated. Was "Choosing Wisely" created with ABIM "dark money." 1989-2008. I want scientific answers. Not propaganda.

The ABIM is discriminating against seniors and veterans with "Choosing Wisely." It is a cost cutting plan, which Cassel opposed in 1995. What changed Cassel's mind regarding her stated caution toward HMOs and care of the elderly in 1995.

"I am worried about a rush into managed care," Cassel said during a Democratic meeting on healthcare reform in 1995. Was Cassel really worried about the elderly and Medicare? If she was, it seems we have an about face in policy and platform.

Why? Can we say it had anything to due with Kaiser Permanente giving Cassel millions of dollars while she worked for the ABIM. Over a ten year period. These payments came from serving on their boards until it was discovered that ABIM never vetted her at all. She worked for them more than the ABIM.

Cassel lobbied more than any other activity while working at the ABIM as best as I can tell.

Well there was the physician persecutions over copyright infringement. What suddenly after 20 years of cohabitation and symbiosis with ABR physician Dr. Arora and Frontrunners successful study materials to get her to stop some of her political lobbying. It appears in 2009 Cassel took up an interest in acting like the DOJ spying on folks for fun an ensuring the profits of the ABIM remained intact. After all how could the lobbying continue without funds to live on.

So Cassel took the helm for the first time since 2004 and persecuted testing companies and physicians who used services other than ACP's MKSAP.

Did we miss something while we were buried to death in MOC busy work and dipping into the kids college fund, soccer uniform money?

I have had it up the kazoo with this torture and fraud which epitomizes quite well the ABIM and its executive panel of inquisitors putting everyone to the question for years with fear mongering and years of water torture.

What's Happening Under Our Noses Now?

Now we find placement of key ABIM officers on critical panels and committees, etc. in NGO's and within government agencies such as the VA are targeting these vulnerable populations to cut their healthcare access and benefits through policy changes and administration changes which shore up control under the guise of efficiency.

Our government authorities need to investigate Christine Cassel of the NQF regarding past activities and present involving the ongoing propaganda called Choosing Wisely.

The ABIM executives are actively pursuing policy which undermines safety for the public. They have relegated and delegated to the degree of negligence and fraud.

It is time for the DOJ, OIG, FTC, CMS, and IRS to step up and protect the public. We request that the CMS investigate and issue an order to stop the Choosing Wisely Program. It is entirely fraudulent and funded with dark money.

The political manipulations and cuts of healthcare to seniors and veterans under the unproven, unsafe experimentation with our healthcare system and the victimization of vulnerable populations to balance the Medicare and Medicaid budget.

I am angered and outraged at the lies being told to the public and to our officials. The fraud must be stopped at the ABIM and its dark money, secret bank accounts, and the misrepresentations used to obfuscate and cover up deposits, inappropriate us of capital gains for excessive compensation and deferred compensation and retirement benefits not in keeping with a voluntary not for profit humanitarian organization which purports to protect the public, but does not. In fact there is harm on every level. I protest the dirty money which the ABIM Foundation represents.

Confer references on tax forms (990) 1989 and 2008 regarding and earlier regarding accounts with 1838 Investment Advisors and Drexel Burnham Lambert. Deposits of physicians fees constitute fraud. Clients of ABIM were lied to as to the actual quality of the testing material they were required to submit to and clients were lied to about the actual cost of producing such a substandard low quality test, which did not assure public safety, but instead only ripped off physicians consciously utilizing deceitful and fraudulent business practices to increase executive compensation and secretly place money in a limited partnership which was falsely termed in documents as a "foundation."

Articles of Incorporation did not allow for such a transfer of profits/funds without a dissolution of the ABIM, which was scheduled for dissolution according to Iowa documents in the year 1986.

No fair communication was provided to clients and the public.
We understand with available documentation that the ABIM deceived the state of Iowa, the federal government, and the treasurer of Philadelphia. All the preceding item concern tax revenue due, form underreported profit accrued and hidden in a limited partnership located somewhere within the ABIM offices.

Henry Strozeski was the sole signer of this limited partnership he called a "foundation." There is insubstantial documentation filed and registered with the states of PA, IA, and the federal government (IRS) to substantiate that the money can be considered as anything but a scheme to withhold money for personal use and inurement by Strozeski and other key executives. The fact that no other officer signed the document hints also that the fraud may have been the solely the action of Strozeski to provide additional funds for his personal parachute. The latter is speculative, but was in keeping with the fraud being committed at Drexel Burnham and Lambert and 1838 Investors which did engage in such fraud. This latter suggestion of Strozeski actin alone cannot be known without an investigation.

Safety was compromised through a depletion in allocation of funds for testing. The safety net to the public was dissolved. Money was diverted instead into holding companies/limited partnerships fraudulently called "Foundation" and "ICE."

Dr. Wes,
Bravo for going to DC and speaking truth to power. If I may ask, please post how/why/where you did this. I know many of us would also go to DC on our dime, and tell the Beltway fixtures what is happening and how it's killing medicine, killing health care in the USA. If there would be an anti-MOC MD flash mob, I'd go. I know many of us would too.
I'm contemplating doing the same thing, where do I start? My house rep? Senator? Ask for an appointment?
I'm busy here seeing patients and excising tumors, don't know how this world works, but am ready to jump in because the ones "who are there doing this already" --AMA, ACP, ABMS, etc have sold us out for a jelly donut.

24 baked in a pie

The whole question/problem with ABMS/ABIM and MOC could be solved almost immediately if Richard Baron had the guts to independently and to exert his real power.

The executive position was created and tailored to cheat physicians out of money, but mostly to gain/buy complete outside control of the organization in order to do things behind the backs of the board...

But "they" will only let the CEO say what is advised. "I am sorry."

Be a man just once before you die. That is why you are alive. Don't just be a victim too. You are the closest to a real physician they would allow...

Who's in power if not Rich?

I'm afraid Rich, just like all physicians are too afraid of the big bad wolf to even think or try...

That original question of what is the ABIM/ABMS and who controls it could be solved by dissolving all the illegal actions by executives at the ABIM and ABMS since Medicare was enacted into law in 1965.

Do it, Rich, and see who comes out of the woodwork to protest.

Almost every alteration of the original articles of incorporation have been illegal...

...to almost every organization in the umbrella.

Putz-n-Potz. Rich's Photo Op. said...

Philly Gossip Today. The News How You Want It When You Want It.

Philadelphia Dirt CERTIFIED AS IT HAPPENS

Richard Baron intercept: Our latest tête-à-tête with the ABIM chief.
Philly "Gossip Today" paparazzi Potz and Putz reporting. They're our ABIM street rovers on the job digging up the fresh raw dirt for you.

Potz has been waiting at the Ayer Building Cassel-Condo in the lobby with cell flash in hand and instant text messaging for instant certification of the dirt as it happens. Well it's about to happen as our proprietary infrared body heat detectors indicate Baron's temperature is about 1.5 degrees up and the heat is making nimbus around his magnificent gallantry as he dashes of to save a damsel in distress.

His eyes are glowing and his jaw is gabbing away with a woman on his i-phone.

Putz standing outside the ABIM's riot-proof Walnut Street compound reported seeing the big guy leave the building with cell to his ear heading over to the Ayer Building where he is hot to meet someone after work.

And it's a young female, thank God. Let's listen in. We are gonna get some dirt tonight.

"Hey Rich, I'm dying to see you. I'm here waiting. I still have the key to the three million dollar condo and I just hate to see it go to waste with all those monthly dues and maintenance fees. I keep reading about the condo everywhere in the news. It makes me hot that people don't understand that you need it to run the operation. Busy boys need to play hard and then relax.

You know, Rich, you deserve every penny you earn - what is it now 700k - just for the political swirl alone. They're all fools to think you're not worth it. You're worth twice what Christine got. You tell 'em, Rich, you're worth it, cause I'm worth it too. Tell 'em you want even more. I want more...Oh, by the way I thought your photo shoot in the ABIM lobby went well. What a masterful pose...I could just ea.....

And then there's all that delicious deferred swirl. I just love political swirl, especially deferred swirl; it goes well with Champaign and caviar.

Did you know how much I've missed seeing you, cause it's really hard on me being discreet. I don't like it like that. I'm wild and free, and that's the way you like it too, baby. Can't wait to see you. Fresh sheets were just waitin' for fun.

Let's have some fun, Rich. Run honey run! I'm chillin', and chilin' another bottle of Champaign; I got your favorite. Run!"

"Putz, this is Potz, I'm here at the Ayer, I'm getting the pics of the big guy now. He's movin' fast. Whoo! Can you see 'em? He's a professional blur of mystery. Got the dashing scarf on. He's gettin' into the lift.

He' goin' up. He's gone. The Mars Rover has landed on Venus.

"Potz, don't Rich remind you of Richard Nixon. It's the jaw and eyes. Very determined, confident, dark...yet presidential."

"Let's get our scoop printed and rollin'! Fresh dirt, raw and certified."

[Both paparazzi singin'.]"Big wheel keep on turnin'. Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river. Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river!"

Allegory and Morality Plays in History said...

Dr. Holmesby is of course a completely fictional character as is the CEO. However the condo in our story is real and fact. What the ABIM does with the condo is their business, but it is my business to inform the moral intelligence of readers that it does look rather fishy.

Any resemblance to actual people is purely coincidental for the purposes of allegorical effect only and to emphasize how individuals become compromised in society.

What becomes dirty is not an external affair but an inward one. That is allegory and is not an allegation of sexual misconduct on the part of ABIM executives or the Ayer Building staff, who would never condone such activities.

After all, the Ayer building is located in Philadelphia and not in Acapulco where one would expect to see such living "morality plays" taking place in commonplace life and not just in fictional form.

It is perfectly acceptable to slam the morality of other countries with humor or barrage of incriminating facts, but it is not acceptable to incriminate through humor or otherwise characters in our own country.

The ACP governors who may attend conferences and stay in hotels are equally off limits to our media, even though Chicago is a town that is worthy of much talk.

We are for the most part very responsible at Philly Gossip Today and would like the public to know that we do not send our Putz and Potz on assignment when it is probable that there is not fire underlying the obvious obfuscating smokescreen

Thank you for your discretion in reading and understanding the real nature of allegory and moral decline in the world.
