Caring for the Health Care System
I want to help lead this change process on your behalf and for our patients as a member of the AAFP Board of Directors. As a Board member, I will advocate for:
- A medical home payment framework that pays appropriately for the value of clinical and administrative services provided by family physicians and the teams we lead
- A national immunization program with adequate vaccine distribution and reasonable payment
- Financial incentives for appropriate clinical data reporting under physician-established guidelines
- Health information technology adoption with financial incentives to support the medical home model
- AAFP assistance for chapters involved with state health care reform initiatives and development of model state legislation
- Alliances with other professional associations, payer groups and patient advocacy groups who support our core values
- Universal coverage of medical home services beginning with children
