Following Governor Brown’s budget unveiling this morning, California Medical Association (CMA) President Paul R. Phinney, MD, released the following statement:
“It is clear to us in the healthcare community that California is moving in a better direction than we have in recent years past. In light of that, we have serious concerns that Governor Brown and his administration have not properly addressed implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). We simply cannot continue to cut resources while adding more patients into the mix.
