AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Foodborne Outbreak: The CDC says Cyclospora has sickened at least 145 people across 17 states, with 20 hospitalizations and Louisiana among the affected states; officials note many patients report getting sick after eating U.S. food with no recent travel, and the source is still under investigation. Public Health Warning: Louisiana health officials also reiterated raw milk risks after 11 illnesses and two hospitalizations tied to three milking operations, highlighting that pasteurization is the key safety step. Healthcare Accountability: A lawsuit alleges St. Bernard Parish Hospital took more than a month to notify a patient after alleged sexual battery by a doctor, raising concerns about how victims are informed and supported. State Health Enforcement: Louisiana’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit—now a standalone DOJ unit—announced 21 arrests statewide, including cases tied to Caddo Parish, as the state pursues restitution. Blood Supply: LifeShare says Shreveport-Bossier hospitals are operating at about 50% of blood needs and is urging donations through a July 1–3 campaign. Local Health Workforce: LSU Health Shreveport welcomed 180 new residents and fellows, expanding graduate medical training across the region. Community Health & Wellness: AmeriHealth Caritas Louisiana partnered with Louisiana Medicaid to help Lafayette shoppers buy fresh food with $25 produce gift cards. Prevention in Heat: Baton Rouge General doctors warn that SSRIs can increase sweating in extreme temperatures, so hydration matters—without stopping meds without medical advice.
