The teaching health center training model works but we need reauthorization from Congress for more $$ per resident and an increase in the timeline for funding to sustain programs. #THCGME
82% of graduates from teaching health center programs continue to work in primary care. At @UnityHealthCare more than 55% of our residents stayed at Unity to practice primary care and stay with their patients and community. #THCGME @WrightCenterGME @NFMResidency_DC
Commencing day 2 of the Annual Grantee Conference! First up, we have a resident testimonial. From Emily Silberstein, DO “I know how to give quality healthcare regardless of background”
A great day to advocate for reauthorization of teaching health center GME with the @WrightCenterGME team. #THCGME residents provide more than 1 million primary care medical visits in 2023 to underserved communities.
This is a big deal. Millions of Americans rely on the care from health centers. We take care of communities and often the most marginalized communities. If you haven't reached out to your Senate rep, now is the time to ask them to support this bipartisan bill
Health center funding expires 9/30!
"In the Senate, negotiations are continuing on a potential bipartisan plan to extend funding for community health centers, one of several authorizations set to expire at the end of the month."

@ani_cdotes Women's health!!! Family medicine, more than any other PC specialty provides comprehensive repro and women's healthcare. Also, more than 85% of FM actually goes into a PC career after residency compared to other specialties that are shifting to hospitalist or specialty positions
Primary health care is about the nexus of these relationships. You can't achieve whole health, wellness, and prevention without these integrated components. #primarycare#IntlPHCconf

Insightful blog post from @AHuffstetler on where we stand with primary care. How is it that only 0.2% of NIH budget covers a clinical service that is the majority of healthcare in the country? BONKERS. https://t.co/aa2wgGr5ry
However, as a followup to my last tweet, I need to also show how great the day was. I got to do a knee injection, toenail removal, see a pt for preventative care after he was released from prison after 19 yrs, place an IUD, and treat major depression. Oh the glory of family med!
