Senator Young speaks on pandemic lessons, what’s ahead for Congress
More than 1,000 executive leaders from the nation’s top hospitals and health systems convened at the 2023 AHA Annual Membership Meeting, April 23-25 in Washington, D.C.
Sen. Todd Young, R-Ind., spoke to attendees about the role of Congress as the health care field moves beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when the entire country “learned just how essential essential workers are.” He spoke on various pieces of upcoming legislation, as well as his support for the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act, which passed in 2022 and aims to reduce and prevent suicide, burnout and mental and behavioral health conditions among health care workers.
