Great interview with American Medical Group Association (AMGA)'s Jamie Miller, MBA and Danielle DuBord on the devastating impact of the proposed 2025 Medicare cuts on patient access, staffing, care management, population health and service cuts. "This is an inflection point for our members." Stop.The.Cuts https://lnkd.in/eTd-RySe
Thank you Mariannette Miller-Meeks for your leadership in addressing the proposed Medicare physician cuts. We greatly appreciate the strong, bipartisan showing of House members who cosigned this letter urging Congressional leadership to pass legislative fixes in 2024. Stop.The.Cuts.
AMGA joins Rep. Miller-Meeks in urging Congress to eliminate 2.8% cut in Medicare provider reimbursements by the end of 2024. We are thankful for this strong showing by House members and encourage Congress to prevent these cuts so that AMGA members can continue to put the health of their communities, and not cost reductions, first.

Amazing results. This is what moving to value is all about - improved quality, better outcomes, better patient experience and engaged clinician teams.
18 million shots in arms! In the first three years of American Medical Group Association (AMGA) Foundation's Rise to Immunize® (RIZE) campaign, participating groups documented & administered 18.3 million vaccinations--including 6.3 million immunizations in the campaign year ending June 30, 2024 !! The campaign also saw nearly a 5% percent increase in the average bundle measure since the start of the campaign. This means more than 239,000 Medicare patients received comprehensive immunization care-- including all 4 out of 4 pneumococcal conjugate, influenza, Tdap and zoster vaccines. I’d like to thank our 85 participating AMGA medical groups & health systems spanning 30 states and engaging over 53,000 physicians. Also thanks to our non profit partners Gerontological Society of America (GSA), Immunize.org, National Foundation for Infectious Diseases (NFID), National Minority Quality Forum, Vaccinate Your Family, Unity Consortium, The Society for Post Acute and Long Term Care Medicine (AMDA) and NAIIS , for all their hard work these first three years. And of course none of this work would be possible without the generous support of our corporate sponsors-- including Pfizer (Founding Sponsor), GSK (Executive Sponsor), Sanofi, Merck and Johnson & Johnson (Principal Sponsors), Dynavax Technologies (Contributing Sponsor) and CSL Seqirus (Supporting Sponsor) . Together, we will administer 30 million immunizations by 2027 through comprehensive and equitable vaccine initiatives! #RiseToImmunize
AMGA's commitment to working with our members to support health equity continues to expand. An example of what AMGA does best - gather leaders of medical groups and health systems to find solutions.
So honored to attend the annual American Medical Group Association (AMGA) Conference on Health Equity and learn about how we can continue to address and advance solutions to close gaps in health disparities in our communities!

11moThis is a great list and I’m so happy to see the AMGA leading the way. Workforce diversity is an outcome of an inclusive culture, and both the mindset and skill set of inclusivity start at the very top of the house.
