Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 7 August

Query:

The CMS Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule is out, and with it

based on performance benchmarks rather than historical
benchmarks, etc.

Also, there's the Alternative Payment Model (APM) Performance
Pathway (APP), which will change how MIPS APMs attest.

What are the significant changes you see?

Anything in measures changes worth noting?

Name: Joseph Lamour Mic

Category: Lifestyle and Fitness

Email: query-b43e@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Mic

Deadline: 11:00 AM EST - 6 August

Query:

SCIENTISTS AND PSYCHOLOGISTS: Like it or not, most people live
in a society that has historically valued masculinity above all
else. Because of this, toxic masculinity exists - the concept
that the pervasive stereotypes of what a man should be leads to
harmful effects in society and to the men themselves. One of the
biggest effects of this is expressing emotion--since showing
vulnerability is seen as feminine and therefore weak (which is a
problem in itself to unpack) a lot of men use the most
stereotypically masculine way of conflict resolution: anger.

With that I have a few questions that need an expert
perspective. 1. What is about how people are socialized that
make anger the default emotion for a lot of men? 2. Is there any
biological component? (like testosterone or something else?) 3.
How do you suggest we change this for our boys so that they can
grow up to be more emotionally balanced men?

Requirements:

For this I need experts (scientists, behavioral experts, etc.)
to explain the science behind the causes of male anger
(particularly for question 2) and Psychologists and other Mental
Health experts that can offer answers to the questions above as
well.
