Scoop: The new #2 at CDC is a top ivermectin prescriber who ended Louisiana’s vaccine-promotion media campaigns.
https://insidemedicine.substack.com/p/scoop-the-apparent-new-2-at-cdc-is?utm_campaign=morning_rounds&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8J62T8wh2FubYPXa01FQOlum5dfWfZH4sUlg-hehYFXx9I05RQnct73EElaOZZeUDA7W4hSR8xqX5BNuRj7JAmEWd92Q&_hsmi=391707009&utm_content=391707009&utm_source=hs_email
Louisiana official is now No. 2 at the CDC
Ralph Abraham, Louisiana’s surgeon general, has been named principal deputy director at the CDC, an HHS official confirmed to STAT’s Daniel Payne yesterday. It’s the number two position at the agency under the director — a role that’s seen its own turnover after Susan Monarez was ousted in August. (Jim O’Neil, the deputy secretary for HHS, is currently serving as acting director.)
https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/28/cdc-director-fired-behind-the-scenes-look/?utm_campaign=morning_rounds&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_ZcccXXplMis7CIief5G9f1uYRWdEv5iC9q0jZ5vD7oYIM2fQWfYpXcg-e8hlBhupxFMuYtogoZKu2CLGqYAeLW90Ylw&_hsmi=391707009&utm_content=391707009&utm_source=hs_email
Here’s what we know about Abraham:
He’s a vaccine skeptic. As Louisiana’s surgeon general, Abraham instructed health officials to stop promoting vaccines, including flu shots, in favor of highlighting personal choice and consulting doctors, according to The Washington Post. In February, he wrote an open letter in which he criticized public health agencies for promoting vaccines “with a one-size-fits-all, collectivist mentality whose main objective is maximal compliance.” He’s told USA Today Network that he doesn’t recommend the Covid vaccine to any of his patients, as he personally prefers natural immunity.

Louisiana surgeon general says COVID shot is dangerous, tells Bill Cassidy to stay in his lane

He’s less skeptical about ivermectin. This year, Abraham backed a bill to make ivermectin available over the counter in his state, per MedPage Today.
https://www.medpagetoday.com/special-reports/features/116436?utm_campaign=morning_rounds&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-97lqxiW__YhV6xoT_FPcMLC-EJARFlaW2uZFlSuKJ5mXDcvMcGvAc290nPKuko78PALitC48sY7_vQyizmRr6JsbRhxQ&_hsmi=391707009&utm_content=391707009&utm_source=hs_email
People are skeptical of him. Abraham is “an irresponsible choice,” one former government employee told physician Jeremy Faust, per his newsletter Inside Medicine. And a CDC employee told Faust that while Abraham’s views are “probably pretty terrible,” they “heard way worse names floated” for the position.

El Comisionado del Seguro Social comparte con el Congreso la actualización de fin de año fiscal
https://www.ssa.gov/agency/commissioner/assets/materials/coss-letter-to-congress-year-in-review.pdf
El Comisionado del Seguro Social
comparte con el Congreso la actualización
de fin de año fiscal
Baltimore, MD – El Comisionado de la Administración del Seguro Social (SSA, siglas en inglés), Frank J. Bisignano, envió una carta de fin de año al Congreso para compartir una actualización sobre el gran progreso que se está logrando en el Seguro Social.
La carta llega al final del año fiscal 2025 y brindó a los miembros del Congreso una actualización sobre las mejoras continuas del servicio al cliente del Seguro Social, las mejoras operativas, los avances en accesibilidad por internet, las reducciones de reclamaciones atrasadas y la integridad general del programa.
El Comisionado del Seguro Social, Bisignano, escribió en la carta: “La misión del Seguro Social sigue siendo tan vital como siempre. Con el apoyo continuo del Congreso, aprovecharemos los avances recientes, modernizaremos nuestra forma de servir al público y garantizaremos que nuestros programas y servicios sigan siendo una fuente de estabilidad para las generaciones futuras. Agradezco la oportunidad que me ha brindado el Presidente Trump de liderar a los hombres y mujeres que trabajan arduamente en el Seguro Social.”
Lea la carta de revisión del año fiscal (solo en inglés).
Extractos de la carta:
“En julio, anunciamos que completamos el envío de más de 3.1 millones de pagos, por un total de más de $17 mil millones, a beneficiarios elegibles bajo la Ley de Equidad del Seguro Social (SSFA, siglas en inglés), 5 meses antes de lo previsto.”
“Tras mi confirmación a principios de mayo, me enteré de que el portal por internet del Seguro Social, my Social Security, tenía un periodo de inactividad de 29 horas semanales, lo que dejaba a las personas de los EE. UU. sin acceso instantáneo a la información sobre sus beneficios. Gracias a las rápidas medidas tomadas por mi equipo directivo el verano pasado, ahora las personas de esta nación tienen acceso 24/7 a su información del Seguro Social por internet... El aumento de nuevos titulares de cuentas, junto con nuestra mayor participación de hacer tramites por internet, permitió un aumento de casi el 20 % en las transacciones por internet en el año fiscal 2025 en comparación con el año anterior.”
“Gracias al uso de tecnología y a la adecuada asignación de recursos, hemos logrado reducir la velocidad promedio de respuesta interanual de 28 minutos en el año fiscal 2024 a 15 minutos en el año fiscal 2025, atendiendo a un 65 % más de llamadas que el año anterior. Además, casi el 90 % de las llamadas se resuelven ahora mediante autoservicio o devolución de llamadas, métodos que las personas de los EE. UU. utilizan con frecuencia al contactar con organizaciones tanto del sector público como del privado.”
“Los tiempos de espera en la oficina se redujeron casi un 27 %, pasando de 30 minutos a 22 minutos a finales del año pasado. Los visitantes con cita programada solo esperaron un promedio de 6 minutos para recibir asistencia. Esto ha sido posible gracias a los cambios en los sistemas telefónicos de las oficinas locales, que ahora permiten que casi el 30 % de las llamadas se atiendan instantáneamente a través de la tecnología, lo que permite a nuestros equipos dedicar más tiempo a los clientes que necesitan ayuda en persona.”
“El atraso en las reclamaciones por incapacidad alcanzó su máximo histórico en junio de 2024, con más de 1.26 millones de solicitudes pendientes. Me enorgullece compartir que este año hemos reducido el atraso por más de un 25 %, hasta 865,000, un nivel sin precedentes desde 2022. También redujimos el tiempo promedio de procesamiento de las reclamaciones iniciales por un 13 %, hasta 209 días, en comparación con los 240 días de enero de 2025, y mantuvimos mínimos históricos de audiencias para los beneficios por incapacidad pendientes, con tiempos de espera promedio reducidos en casi 60 días desde el último año fiscal.”

During this event, program leader Anita Soni, Ph.D., M.B.A., highlighted how the MEPS Insurance Component (IC) partners with the U.S. Census Bureau to collect information about Employer-Sponsored Insurance (ESI) from public and private entities about insurance offerings, eligibility, enrollments, premiums, and deductibles; and how the MEPS Household Component (HC) collects healthcare use and expenditures data from thousands of households across the United States. While it was not recorded, the webinar answered participant questions related to data variables, and access to data files, and questions related to data analyses. Compiled data from both components is available through a variety of publications and files, along with a series of tools that allow users to analyze and compare trends across high-priority topics.

The AHRQ Safety Program for Healthcare-Associated Infection (HAI) Prevention is recruiting adult intensive and nonintensive care units for its next cohort focused on preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI). During informational webinars held October 3 and 28, lead subject matter expert Bradford Winters, Ph.D., M.D., presented program details and outlined how evidence-based practices can help hospitals reduce CAUTI rates. He highlighted key program benefits, including expert coaching, monthly educational webinars, implementation support, benchmarking reports, free CME/CEU credits, and a flexible data collection process. In response to attendee questions, Dr. Winters emphasized that involving a multidisciplinary team and an external expert familiar with the targeted adverse event—such as an infection preventionist—can strengthen a team’s success in preventing HAIs. Visit the website to register for upcoming webinars on December 2, December 11, January 13, and January 22, or download presentation materials to learn more about participation benefits.

The Impact of Constant Observation in Pediatric Mental Health Emergencies: Perspectives from Emergency Department Staff
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23794925.2025.2502918
Study Identifies Suggestions To Improve Care for Children in Mental Health Emergencies
Constant observation of children admitted to the ED with serious mental health issues is a critical but challenging component to ensuring safer care, according to an AHRQ-funded study. While continuous observation helps prevent harm, such as self-injury, some patients feel anxious or angry about being watched all the time. In addition, staff conducting constant observation can be exposed to aggressive or unpredictable behavior. Through interviews with 55 members of ED teams, including patient observers, researchers examined how constant observation affects care, staff, and workflow. The study includes recommendations, including better ED design, de-escalation training, and therapeutic engagement to improve safety and care for children experiencing mental health emergencies.

AHRQ-Funded Studies Examine Emergency Department Visits for Children With Mental and Behavioral Conditions
AHRQ-Funded Studies Examine Emergency Department Visits for Children With Mental and Behavioral Conditions
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40986492/
Two AHRQ-funded studies offer insight into the experience of children with mental and behavioral health (MBH) conditions in the emergency department (ED). One article, published in the Journal of Patient Safety, found based on interviews with 55 staff members from 4 ED departments that self-harm, harm to others, and elopement were critical safety concerns for pediatric MBH patients. The ED environment was seen as a trigger for patient agitation, exacerbating MBH conditions. A second study, published in BMC Health Services Research, explored how often children at risk for MBH conditions visit hospital EDs. The study analyzed data from the 2019 National Health Interview Survey and found that children at higher risk for MBH conditions were more likely to visit the ED.

Retrospectively Reviewing Inpatient Health Records To Identify Adverse Events
https://www.ahrq.gov/patient-safety/quality-measures/qsrs/index.html
A new AHRQ report, Adverse Events Among Medicare Hospitalizations in 2021–2023, presents national findings from the Quality and Safety Review System. The analysis captures more than 40 types of adverse events through systematic review of inpatient Medicare records from rural, targeted urban, critical access, and other acute care hospitals. Key findings of the report include the following:
Between 2021 and 2023, the share of Medicare patients with at least one adverse event per hospital stay declined from 7.1 percent to 5.2 percent, while the overall rate of adverse events dropped from 83.1 to 59.4 per 1,000 discharges.
Across all 3 years, medication events, pressure injuries/ulcers, and hospital-acquired infections represented about 80 percent of adverse events.
Critical access hospitals consistently showed the lowest occurrence of adverse events compared with other hospital types.

Cross-sectoral policy approaches are recognised as key to integrating global sustainability frameworks into national and local action on public health, environmental management, climate policy, and sustainable planning. However, governance structures remain fragmented and siloed, limiting capacity for inclusive, transformative responses to socio-ecological challenges. Meaningful integration of diverse community knowledge systems into socio-ecological governance and policy design is needed. Yet, local communities tend to be excluded from policy dialogue at higher levels of decision-making. This study explores how policymakers conceptualise their role in supporting community engagement on socio-ecological issues and examines the structures and supports required to embed community knowledge systems within integrated ecological and health decision-making. Employing semi-structured interviews, the perspectives of 20 senior decision-makers in Ireland, comprising representatives from the health and environmental sectors, were explored on community engagement and collaborative co-production in addressing socio-ecological challenges. Four interrelated themes emerged from the analysis concerning community engagement, policy coherence, multisector collaboration, and the use of practical support tools. The findings indicate that meaningful community engagement, knowledge plurality, and multisector collaboration are deeply interconnected. Each reinforces the other, and together with supportive policy structures, process, and practical tools, they form the basis of an inclusive approach to socio-ecological governance. Multisector platforms, grounded in inclusive, participatory approaches and supported by practical tools, play a role in translating policy coherence into actionable, locally grounded solutions. Future research is needed to explore how emerging co-produced tools (including Ecohealth Community Toolkits), frameworks, and platforms for inclusive engagement can perform in different policy and governance contexts.
