Steve Furr—every dollar spent on primary care saves the system 13$. Referrals to specialists lead to up to 13% higher mortality as compared to family docs taking charge #aafpcod #aafpfmx

Steven Furr, incoming President of the AAFP giving his address to the Congress of Delegates with comedy and poise. “It has become easy to qualify things as misinformation instead of sitting down and having a real conversation” #aafpcod #aafpfmx

“…credentialing needs to change,” Nosal said. “The questions that are asked and the way they are asked — to make having sought or received treatment for mental health a reason for exclusion — is unreasonable, harmful and dangerous to physicians & physicians in training.”
AAFP@aafp

A recent survey by @PhysiciansFound found that, among physicians, there is a stigma surrounding mental health care. #AAFP board member Dr. Sarah Nosal shares the importance of reducing that stigma with @GoHealio ⬇️ bit.ly/3PYjKV6

You wouldn’t get medical advice or treatment from a Texas judge….so why would you allow him to decide what medicines are safe? 🤷‍♂️ Health care decision belong b/t a patient and their doctor and politics has not place in the exam room. Full stop 🛑 #Kacsmaryk

Family physicians are working tirelessly to treat patients of all ages with #RSV and #flu. We echo @AmerAcadPeds and @hospitals4kids' call for the government to declare a public health emergency in response to the overwhelming surge of cases.

We joined @hospitals4kids in urging @WhiteHouse and @HHSGov to declare a national emergency in response to the surge of pediatric cases of RSV and flu and the significant capacity issues affecting pediatric hospitals. Learn more: ow.ly/XsR450LEUFe
