AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Public Health & Policy: A federal hantavirus response leader, Adm. Brian Christine, is drawing fresh scrutiny after reports highlighted his career as a urologist and his past media work—raising questions about whether the right public-health experience is in charge. Maternal Health Access: Alabama’s Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge that could keep birth centers tied up in “hospital” licensing rules, a move critics say threatens midwifery access during the state’s ongoing maternal/infant health crisis. Community Safety: Tuscaloosa residents gathered to honor nurse Ada Doss, killed outside DCH Regional Medical Center during an attempted robbery. Health Care Costs: New Medicaid spending snapshots show local billing increases in Alabama cities, including Trussville and Tuscaloosa, for medicine services and durable medical equipment. Voting Rights: Thousands rallied in Selma and Montgomery to protest redistricting efforts aimed at weakening Black political power.
