Wisconsin ACEP

WACEP commends @GovEvers for an executive budget proposal that prioritizes patient safety, care, and numerous health care needs for WI. Read the full Press Release here: wisconsinacep.org/page-18086/131…

My Emergency Medicine colleagues are growing tired of telling sick people: no, you can’t get the #CovidVaccine when you have just been diagnosed with #COVID19. It’s too late.

It was a great board meeting last week! Great to have everyone back together! Today is an important day as the Joint Finance Committee in WI considers the medicaid increase for EM services which was included in the Govs budget. This would elevate us from the worst in the country.

Thank you @GovEvers for joining us at our annual meeting and spring symposium!

Thanks Representative Born for joining WACEP today to provide insight in to the budget process and how the budget impacts patients and the practice of Emergency medicine!

’Twas the season (of COVID), and really a mess. But today, we all deserve a moment of rest. We hope this lighthearted poem, read by doctors from around the country, brings you some cheer. Best wishes and happy holidays from emergency physicians, everyone!

Wisconsin’s frontline healthcare workers are putting it all on the line, spending long hours in a mask and face shield, doing all they can to save lives. They can't do it alone. Please, take preventative measures seriously to help them #STOPtheCOVIDspread. youtu.be/GIRW7xTyhDM
