ACP agrees with @CMSgov on the importance of primary care & primary care physicians. We believe that a robust primary care workforce can help to address physician shortages & underscore the value of primary care for patients, communities, & the health care system as a whole.

In 2021, premature death from cancer was about 41% higher among Black New Yorkers compared to the citywide average—higher than the rates among Asian, Latino, and White New Yorkers. One of the goals of #HealthyNYC is to reduce this driver of declining life expectancy.
Amazing to see so many wonderful Columbia Medicine alumni out in the world doing great work! Congrats to Andrew and Vera on a beautiful wedding. So grateful to have been a part of an amazing gathering.
Residents, if you interview with a private practice, always ask if they're interested in selling to private equity. If they say no, politely ask if you can give them a polygraph. If they pass the polygraph, consider engaging in a bit of light torture to make absolutely sure.
“This is a racial justice issue. Black women are more than two times as likely to be evicted as white tenants in New York State,” said CVH Executive Director @juanita_lewis81.

After progress in reducing Black-White disparities, improvements stalled and worsened in 2020.”
