These issues arise not only in hospitals and health systems, but on Capitol Hill, in state departments, and within national regulatory agencies.
For decades, we have advocated for patients. What is clearer now than ever is this:
Physicians’ interests and patients’ interests are inseparable.
When physicians cannot practice according to medical and community standards, patients ultimately suffer. Efforts framed as cost control often compromise quality, autonomy, and access to care.
We are here to protect both.

Our affiliation with the Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU), AFL-CIO strengthens our voice at every level of government.
Through this partnership, we stand alongside almost 1 million members in Pennsylvania and 15 million nationwide — insured workers, patients, and voters.
When we speak, we speak not only as physicians — but with the collective voice of millions of healthcare consumers.
We love our customers, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
