@RonDeSantis HB 527 / SB 202 “Mandatory Human Reviews of Insurance Claim Denials” from this year’s session would have slowed this on the insurance side. Passed the house 108-0, but it died in the senate

Florida’s farms grow the real, whole foods that keep our state healthy. It was great meeting Commissioner of Agriculture @WiltonSimpson and hearing the steps we’re taking to preserve this for generations to come.

Quality primary care is the backbone of our society’s healthcare system. We should incentivize building its workforce for the years to come. Read more in my latest letter to the editor @AFPJournal @aafp

Community health centers and the NHSC bring care and clinicians to communities that need them most. Congress must pass a multi-year funding agreement before these programs face a year-end lapse. #ClinicsToCongress #FamilyMedicine

Medicare physician payment has fallen 33% since 2001 after inflation. Congress should pass the bipartisan Patients First Act (H.R. 9693) to provide a permanent inflation-based update and invest in comprehensive primary care. #ClinicsToCongress #AAFPAdvocacy

Earlier this year, I wrote an article for @doximity discussing the growing evidence on the harms of screen time for all ages, as well as ways to mitigate negative effects. Read it here: https://t.co/6EBL0fzMZk

Great article by fellow family physician @Dr_Haridopolos highlighting the nuances of childhood screen time and the importance of a comprehensive approach to ensure safe and beneficial screen use for children

[HHS @HHSGov]

There is a particular kind of silence parents know well: a room full of children, together but apart, each looking down at a screen.

Children will have all of adulthood to be digital citizens, but they only have one childhood. Let’s encourage them to LIVE REAL LIFE. 📵

Great meeting earlier this month with @RepBrianMast staff about the importance of community health centers to rural and underserved communities and the need to ensure multi-year funding prior to the end of the year @aafp @AAFP_advocacy
