Gurman, M.D., AMA president. "AMA remains committed to improving health insurance coverage so that patients receive timely, high-quality care, preventive services, medications and other necessary treatments." AMA has long advocated for health insurance coverage for all Americans, as well as pluralism, freedom of choice, freedom of practice and universal access for patients. The same core principles and priorities will guide future AMA advocacy efforts regarding the Affordable Care Act. Click here to read the AMA Vision on Health Reform. Comments are closed.
