Taking Lessons from the Open Source Movement & Craft Brewers, Doctor Revolutionizing Healthcare

Fortunately, doctors are collaborating to change this such as the Direct Primary Care conference starting today in Orlando.

Why AMA Supports Dr. Price to Lead HHS
Press Release |
American Medical Association |
December 1, 2016
The AMA supports the nomination of Dr. Tom Price based on decades of interactions with him as a member of the AMA House of Delegates, Georgia state senator and as a member of the House of Representatives since 2005. Over these years, there have been important policy issues on which we agreed (medical liability reform) and others on which we disagreed (passage of the Affordable Care Act).
