People and patient care, the real reason we go into healthcare, are the ones who suffer. It's time for this to change! As healthcare professionals we are there everyday on the frontlines doing the work to help patients while policies handcuff our work and meaningful progress.

Each of the most 'profitable' sectors of healthcare have huge lobbying groups that shape policies to help their bottom-line. Policies shaped by these lobbyists prioritize revenue over patients and have come at the cost of healthcare access and outcomes for our patients.
