Thinking of Rob Restuccia today, mentor to me and to so many.
"In his unique, gentle way, Rob was the choirmaster. Even if you never met him, you have heard his song." Miss you today and always #healthjusticegiant. Thinking of my @CommCatHealth family today🙏 - hard to believe its been three years. healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377…

Vaccines don't just work. They work across all the variants, providing protection from illness, hospitalizations, and deaths. Summary including today's multiple updates. (and we're damn lucky)

#FactFriday: The #AmericanRescuePlan eliminates or lowers premiums for millions of people on Affordable Care Act plans. Making health coverage more affordable and available helps people who have lost their jobs and health insurance get the coverage they need.

As EOHHS looks at reforming the BH system, it's important to keep what is working - BH Community Partners program.
We’re seeing great results in reducing hospital admissions and psychiatric hospital days, and are proud to work with @Vinfen and @BayCoveMA to improve outcomes for @MassHealth members!
