We have know for at least a decade that direct-to-consumer drug advertising increases healthcare dollars spent on drugs, yet the practice continues. This article taught me that some companies - like those who do telehealth - are advertising on social media without the very low, very weak guardrails that the FDA has placed on advertisments placed by pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors. These unrestricted sites are not always mentioning potential side effects or generic drug names. I am pretty sure that Lady Gaga or other “influencers” should not be recommending an approach to your migraines in place of your family doctor!! The U.S. is 1 of only 2 countries (New Zealand is #2) who allow for this practice. In a system where we spend them most money of all high-income countries and have very poor overall outcomes, isn’t this a reasonable place to start to cut costs? It’s time to stop direct-to-consumer advertising for pharmaceuticals.

Executive Vice President & Chief Executive Officer at American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP)
I frequently write about the critical need for increased investment in primary care, which will help us build our primary care workforce and recruit the best and brightest in medicine to choose primary care specialties. Building a robust primary care workforce requires us to think comprehensively about the issues that have led us to where we are today - loss of autonomy, insufficient investment/payment, administrative burden, and a lack of focus on the value of comprehensive primary care. Another issues that needs greater attention is the role of medical schools in creating a pro primary care culture. This morning, I came across an op-ed written by a fourth-year family medicine student that reminded me of just how bright the future of family medicine is. Medical student Danielle Gabuzda wrote eloquently about the need to address medical school cultures, to bolster primary care experience in medical schools, and to invest in primary care. These are big challenges. Thankfully, there are people like the future Dr. Gabuzda entering primary care who are committed to identifying and addressing shortcomings so that we can make primary care for all a reality.
