SUMMARY:Fossil Fuel Pollution and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:As the burning of fossil fuels continues to cause health hazards like air pollution\, it is also the primary driver of the climate crisis. The health care sector has a responsibility to urgently respond to the accelerating impacts of record temperatures\, extreme weather events\, and rising sea levels that are contributing to a full-fledged public health crisis across the globe. This new reality prompts crucial questions for clinicians and health care leaders as to how to collectively move forward to prevent and mitigate current and future health and health care system impacts. \nJoin editors from the New England Journal of Medicine as we bring attention to the broad range of health impacts of climate change and how physicians and health care leaders can help to safeguard their patients’ health. \nRegister HERE

SUMMARY:A Prescription for Good Health: Taxes - Community Event
DESCRIPTION:WPSR’s Economic Inequity & Health Task Force invites you to join us and learn why progressive taxation is essential for health and wellbeing. Washington has the most regressive tax system in the country – people struggling to make ends meet pay the most\, while the very wealthy pay the least. This harms everyone. Even the wealthiest among us. Together we’ll learn how taxation affects health and equity\, then discuss as a group how we can shift the narratives about taxation and make a difference in our state. We hope you’ll join us to get as excited about balancing our tax code as we are. \nClick HERE to Register

SUMMARY:AMA Webinar: How prior authorization disrupts patient care—and how we can fix it
DESCRIPTION:94% of physicians surveyed by the AMA in 2022 said that prior authorization delays access to necessary care\, and even worse\, 33% of physicians reported that prior authorization has led to a serious adverse event for a patient in their care. Physicians know they spend an inordinate amount of time dealing with the hassles of prior authorization\, but when patients are being harmed because of it—it’s clear something has to change. \nClick HERE to register for this Webinar.
