The American Medical Association has raised alarms regarding Robert F Kennedy Jr's proposal to overhaul the US Preventive Services Task Force, which is responsible for determining preventive health measure coverage by insurance companies. This task force, formed 40 years ago, includes a panel of experts who provide recommendations on cancer screenings and various other health concerns. The AMA emphasized the Task Force's critical role in guiding physicians in disease prevention and urged the retention of its current members to maintain effective evidence-based practices. Kennedy's overhaul plan arises from his perception of the panel's political leanings.
The American Medical Association expressed concern over Robert F Kennedy Jr's plans to overhaul the 40-year-old US Preventive Services Task Force, aiming to prevent disruptions in preventive health recommendations.
Kennedy's intention to revise the Task Force's structure stems from his belief that it is too 'woke', a perspective paralleling the criticisms made by Donald Trump against perceived liberal bias.
