In early August, the Senate approved S 610, the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act. This comes on the heels of hundreds of ACEP members joining together to lobby for this legislation during last month’s Leadership & Advocacy Conference, conducting 287 meetings with legislators and staffers from 44 states. S 610 and its bipartisan House counterpart, HR 1667, are focused on researching and developing policies to prevent burnout and improve mental health among health care clinicians, along with removing barriers to accessing care and treatment (including consideration of stigma and licensing concerns).
