What to look for this week on Contemporary OB/GYN®
You can expect a variety of topics to be covered this week on Contemporary OB/GYN®, including:
“My research centers on examining the intersection of policy, health and economics. In no other area of medicine is policy as critical to health as ob/gyn. It is essential to understand how policy can promote health, or perpetuate reproductive health disparities,” said principal investigator Maria Rodriguez, MD, MPH, an associate professor of ob/gyn in the Section of Family Planning at Oregon Health & Science University in Portland.
Attention and accountability are the 2 “A’s” that drive change. It’s true in medicine, business, even family. If it is not monitored, it is not regarded as important nor will change be affected.
The pandemic put all of us into survival mode. As the slow recovery begins, doctors have been able to bring to light other health topics from which attention was diverted during this time. That is the nature of this month’s cover story.
