MA Primary Care Alliance for Patients (MAPCAP)

It is dangerous for national leadership to ignore science in favor of conspiracy theories. A few weeks back, I was proud to march in DC with The Coalition for a Healthy America and the Committee to Protect Healthcare, calling for the firing of RFK Jr.

This is sooo good

#PC4YOU was featured as a solution to the Primary Care crisis in a great article in the Worcester Telegram and Gazette @telegramdotcom. Thank you @EricDicksonCEO for your support of this legislation. Thank you @henrytelegram for excellent reporting. @MAPCAP_ @TuftsMedSchool @aafp

MA Gov Maura Healey speaking at the 2025 Health Equity Trends Summit calls out increased funding for Primary Care as a key to delivering health equity. #PC4YOU @MAPCAP_ @aafp @TuftsMedSchool @MassAFP

Thank you @AAFP for your leadership and voice. We must insist on and fight for the values of health, science, and professionalism, among others. The removal of the ACIP is a huge leap in the wrong direction. @MAPCAP_ @MassAFP aafp.org/news/media-cen…

I was honored to participate in this great summit at UC Davis brainstorming how we fix Primary Care in the US. health.ucdavis.edu/family-medicin… @aafp @MAPCAP_ #PC4YOU 2X PC Investment, shift from FFS to Value, separate health insurance from PC, and no co-pays or deductibles in PC!

Sen Whitehouse, at the Primary Care Collaborative Conf, suggests that Medicaid cuts being proposed by the Trump admin will cause irreparable harms. If you have a Republican Senator, please call them in the next wk to urge them to spare Medicaid @PCPCC @AnnGreiner1 @MAPCAP_ @aafp

@MAPCAP_ @kevinmd @TuftsMedSchool @aafp The focus on addressing the primary care workforce shortage is essential. Highlighting the factors deterring medical students from this field is a great step. Kudos to the team for diving deep into this issue!

To address the Primary Care workforce shortage, we must understand 'What is Driving Medical Students Away From Primary Care.' Many thanks to my 2 star medical student coauthors (Archie Goyal/Vineeth Amba). @kevinmd @TuftsMedSchool @aafp @MAPCAP_ #PC4YOU kevinmd.com/2025/05/whats-…
