Political violence is about to spread all over America. Jan 6 was a centralized attack—incited by Trump—against democracy & the cops who defend it. Trump & his supporters are now inciting decentralized attacks against democracy & the cops who defend it. This is what they want.

CMA has long advocated that medical decisions, including those around abortion & contraception, should be made by patients in consultation with their health care providers. #YesonProp1 will send the strongest possible message that reproductive freedom is a fundamental human right

Thanks to #CALeg Assembly Health Cmte & @JimWoodAD2 for moving @DrPanMD's #SB250 yesterday! This bill will improve the quality and speed of care provided to thousands of CA patients by #CMADocs by reforming the #PriorAuthorization process. We'll see you in Approps!

#PriorAuthorization doesn't just delay health care - it can stop it entirely. When physicians and patients are forced to let health problems go untreated, nobody benefits. #CALeg, patients & physicians call for a YES vote on #SB250 to reform #PriorAuth.

Today’s SCOTUS decision undermines decades of progress in health care for pregnant people & is a direct attack on the practice of medicine. We stand committed to doing all we can to protect the fundamental human right to access reproductive health services cmadocs.org/newsroom/news/vi…
#SB250 by @DrPanMD will help to increase patient access to care, ensure timely access to treatments and improve patient health outcomes, all by reforming the highly problematic #PriorAuthorization process. Pls vote YES. More on #PriorAuth: ama-assn.org/system/files/pr…

A recent British study found that people who suffered from severe cases of COVID-19 to the extent that they received critical care experienced cognitive impacts equivalent to about 20 years of aging or a loss of 10 IQ points. #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver thehill.com/policy/healthcar…
In response to SCOTUS opinion that would overturn abortion rights, #CMADocs President Dr. Robert Wailes says: “We are gravely concerned...CA must do all it can to depoliticize individual health care decisions and protect reproductive freedom for all.” cmadocs.org/newsroom/news/vi…
