#TBT our 2019 Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, where Dr. Abdul El-Sayed delivered an inspirational keynote: “Doctors, Politics & Medicare for All” It should come as no surprise that physicians are yearning, and organizing, for a real solution to our health care crisis: improved Medicare for All.

TW: Suicide and self harm. If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988. Dr. Joy Evers shares the story of how her corporate health insurance plan failed her family when they needed it the most. Delays and denials can be deadly—we need comprehensive health coverage for everybody.

Dr. Diljeet Singh, President of PNHP, and allies testify to the Congressional Progressive Caucus! Tune-in now www.facebook.com/share/v/1L5U...

“In the coming years, as politicians debate ‘universal healthcare,‘ we need those words to be much more than a campaign slogan. Healthcare must be a true human right, easily exercised by every single person in America. We can and we will make that right a reality with Medicare for All.”

PNHP is headed to Washington! 🎥 Tune in for the hearing live stream on Wednesday, July 22nd at 8:30am ET— don’t miss it. #SinglePayer #MedicareForAll

🚨 Red Alert: With huge health care cuts looming, more than 600 financially vulnerable hospitals are at risk of plunging deeper into deficit spending. Many are at risk of closing altogether. New @nationalnurses.bsky.social report: www.nationalnursesunited.org/sites/defaul...

Our new study shows how dangerous Trump's health care cuts are: More than 600 hospitals across the U.S are financially vulnerable to cuts or closures. That means hundreds of communities stand to lose access to life-saving care! This is a 🚨red alert!🚨 https://bit.ly/4wtlZlA

Federal cuts threaten 600 financially vulnerable hospitals nationwide

More than 600 financially vulnerable hospitals across the United States are set to experience an aggregate increase in financial deficits of between 50 and 75 percent. The financial losses, estimated in a new research study, present an extreme risk of c...

The US is 250 years old; isn't it about time we had a functioning health care system? It's time for Medicare for All! #MFA #NHSAnniversary

“Beyond helping their patients navigate the important personal decision between Traditional Medicare and Medicare Advantage, physicians should take a leadership role in elevating these concerns within organized medicine and the broader community.” Read: digitaleditions.walsworth.com/publication/...

“Doctors enter medicine to care for people, but are increasingly forced to navigate barriers that delay or deny treatment to generate profit. When clinical judgment is overridden by financial priorities, patient care suffers.” Learn more about moral injury: pnhp.org/moral-injury...

Remembering PNHP past president Dr. John Geyman, who died last month at the age of 95. A prolific writer, Geyman authored more than 160 journal articles and 20 books. In his retirement, he became a vocal advocate for healthcare reform by writing books and pamphlets championing single-payer reform.

“No region of the country stands to benefit from Medicare for All more than the South. The legacy of Jim Crow racism, enduring class divisions, and low union density result in a region whose health outcomes continue to lag behind those of the majority of the country.”

What is the point of insurance if you go bankrupt as a result of medical illness?

Corporate America is driving doctors out of medicine. We’re going to have to choose between shareholder profits and patient care—and the choice should be obvious.

Deprivatization “could save Ohioans between $450 and $850 million a year...simplify the system, [and] increase participation from doctors who don't currently accept Medicaid.” The same holds true for every other state that contracts with corporate health insurers to administer Medicaid benefits.

Physician, heal thy system. Learn more about the crisis of moral injury in medicine—and why corporate wellness programs aren’t a solution to this systemic problem.

Did you know: Medicare for All would allocate capital funding based on community need—not the potential to deliver huge profits to investors? Building and upgrading hospitals and clinics in this manner would dramatically expand access for marginalized Americans, and would save countless lives.

Reminder: Single payer is *surging* in popularity. Have YOUR members of Congress caught up to their constituents when it comes to Medicare for All?

Physician moral injury isn’t an individual failing that can be addressed with workplace wellness programs or deep breathing techniques. Moral injury is an indicator of systemic failures that can only be corrected with reforms like Medicare for All. Learn more: pnhp.org/moral-injury...

Dr. James Martin urges his representative, @casten.house.gov, to recognize the growing need for Medicare for All in his district. As of today, there are 98 Democrats in the U.S. House who have *not* co-sponsored the Medicare for All Act. What are they thinking?

As we put it in our latest video: driving is one of the most dangerous things we do as Americans. This is a teaser of our full video on the Archer & Kedzie Ave safe streets project, where we talk about just how deadly American roads are, and how protected bike lanes make them safer for everyone!

Chicago's Archer Ave has been in the news a lot lately - so we went out in April to talk to some advocates who support the improvements, dive into the data behind the project (and safe streets in general), got comment from Alderwoman Ramirez, and a whole lot more!

We talked to SO MANY Medicare for All supporters at #ACOG2026 last weekend 💛 Obstetricians and gynecologists understand the urgent need for a single payer system that covers the full range of reproductive health care for ALL Americans.

Physicians across the U.S. are suffering moral injury—not burnout, but moral injury. PNHP conducted a two-year research initiative to better understand the scope of this crisis, and what can be done to reclaim the medical profession. Read our full report: pnhp.org/moral-injury...

“Just based on what we are seeing in the midterms, there’s no doubt in my mind there will be a fight over single payer in ‘28.” Medicare for All advocates need to organize NOW in order to come out on top.

“There is a growing consensus that the federal government should ensure all Americans have health care coverage. Medicare for All is no longer a fringe proposal, but is now recognized as a common-sense solution.” - Drs. Monica Maalouf, Winnie Lin, and Alec Nicolas Angelo Jotte

Trump's $900 BILLION in Medicaid cuts are putting almost 450 hospitals at risk of closing or reducing services. Rural hospitals that serve Black & Latino communities are most at risk. These closures would be deadly. Congress must take action and restore this funding.

Breaking news: Chicago’s City Council has voted unanimously to pass a resolution in support of Medicare for All 🎉 This makes Chicago the biggest city in the country to endorse Medicare for All, and sends a message to federal legislators that their constituents expect them to support single payer.

PNHP’s new report exposes the crisis of moral injury in medicine, which occurs when doctors are prevented from caring for their patients due to corporate interference and other factors beyond their control. Read our report, and share our findings with your colleagues: pnhp.org/moral-injury...

We’re just days away from the launch of PNHP’s moral injury report—where we’ll share detailed findings from our survey of more than 1,200 practicing physicians. PNHP will host a webinar on Tue 3/24 where we’ll share topline findings from our report. Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Today was a big day for our movement—with Chicago moving closer to becoming the biggest U.S. city to endorse #MedicareForAll! Our members showed up at City Hall to support. Sorry about the audio—we are indeed a windy city 💨 (hopefully the subtitles help, though).
