Nearly every year for a decade, MS physicians have “ceded” something to NPs seeking to remove physicians from the medical care team until ethically we could give no more. The only “compromise” left is patient safety & that��s just something on which we are unable to haggle. Worse patient outcomes and increased expense when the physician is not involved in the patient’s medical care are data-proven. Thanks @courtneyannj for the interview. @MSMA1 #KeepTheTeam #MedicalSchoolMatters

Epidemic intelligence service officers are the cream of the cream. They're top doctors, veterinarians, and other health professionals. They sign up for a two-year training program to serve the country. Not only is terminating them bad for the country, it's also a disgraceful violation of a commitment.

No matter what he does on chronic disease (and I say this as someone with a masters degree in chronic disease prevention), if vaccinations keep falling and outbreaks keep occurring, RFKs tenure will be defined by the resurgence of vaccine preventable diseases, and even lower US life expectancy. I truly hope he and the administration understand this. 😟
The NIH helped develop polio vaccines, map the human genome, advanced cancer and therapy and has produced 104 Nobel Prize winners.
This is what's being attacked?
What a great investment into the comprehensive health needs of Forrest Co. and Hattiesburg. This Health Department now sets the standard of how community level public health should be. This was a partnership among County,city, MSDH, and federal support to get this done. Thank you
Today @MSHouseOfRep Medicaid Committee heard of potential impacts on access, cost and quality of care on the issue of Medicaid expansion for MS workers. For too long, this issue has been ignored because of political volatility or lack of knowledge on the complexities of the issue
The state Medicaid director and a hospital CEO — neither of them doctors — bucked recommendations from health care professionals and delayed a vote that could have made it easier for expecting Mississippians to receive timely prenatal care.
