The September 2026 publication of @CDCgov’s Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) shows data from June 2024 to May 2025, and closed about five weeks before #HR1 became law and disrupted #HIV programs. If we are to end the HIV Epidemic by 2030, we must keep measuring health indicators and push policymakers to address harms befalling patients from federal cuts and upcoming work requirements.

340B Policy Director @kalvin_pugh deep-dives into the intention and meaning behind the “community” in Community Access National Network.

4 million people illegally bought drugs abroad not because they chose a riskier supply chain — because payers engineered their coverage to shift costs onto patients. Closing the border solves nothing if that stays untouched. link.tiicann.org/0tdziut #PBMReform

Helen Branswell, STAT’s longtime infectious diseases reporter, has died at 69. For a decade she made the science of outbreaks accessible and timely for readers who needed it - clinicians, advocates, and patients alike. A real loss. Our thoughts are with those closest to her.

Insurers posted billions in Q2 2026 profits while six are exiting ACA Marketplaces and leaving 650,000 people to find new plans. For people with HIV or hep C, losing coverage means losing treatment. Three shocks, one gap. link.tiicann.org/dyd808q

Community health centers served 32.7 million patients in 2025, with 9 in 10 patients living in low-income households. Medicaid was the largest payer, covering nearly half of health center patients and accounting for 46% of total health center revenue. on.kff.org/3ZdWYfG
The KFF bar chart titled "Health Centers Saw Increases in Patients Across Age Groups Since 2021" displays the number of patients in millions for the years 2021 to 2025. Each year is divided into three age groups: 0-17, 18-64, and 65 and older. The total patients increase each year, with 2021 showing 30.3 million, and 2025 showing 32.7 million.
