The AAFP advocates for policies ensuring that all Americans have access to timely, high-quality primary care. We work to improve individual and population health — with particular focus on correcting disparities in health care access, affordability and quality — by championing legislation and regulations that expand coverage and achieve better health outcomes while protecting physician payment, lessening physicians’ administrative burdens and strengthening the primary care workforce. The AAFP is committed to building on what works in the present system and redesigning what does not.
