    Our Advocacy Priorities

    Valuing Primary Care

    We want payment reform to drive value for patients through continuous and comprehensive contact, with the goal of improving patients’ health outcomes and the doctor-patient experience. 

    Reducing Administrative Burden

    We want to help family physicians lower administrative roadblocks by identifying and eliminating regulations and processes that add cost while undermining the efficient delivery of high-quality care.

    Strengthening the Workforce

    We want a robust primary care workforce positioned to serve all communities, including underserved and rural populations. 

    Improving Health Care for All

    We want to build on what works in the present system and redesigning what does not.
