AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Cancer Care Access: Ochsner LSU Health–Feist-Weiller Cancer Center in Shreveport is now offering CAR T-cell therapy for eligible patients, bringing advanced blood-cancer treatment closer to home for North Louisiana. Infectious Disease Watch: Cyclosporiasis, a parasite that can cause “explosive” diarrhea, is spreading across the U.S.; health officials say cases are reported in multiple states and emphasize careful produce washing and thorough cooking. Health Costs: A new report highlights how some insurers keep copay assistance meant to lower patient drug costs, leaving people paying more out of pocket for expensive medications. Public Health & Safety: Extreme Louisiana heat is being blamed for roadway buckling and vehicle damage in northwest parishes, while Shreveport-area guidance urges residents to watch for heatstroke warning signs. Local Care & Access: St. Francis Medical Group opened a new clinic in Monroe with family medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics, geriatrics, sports medicine, and osteopathic care. Community Health Alerts: A limited boil-water advisory was issued for parts of Hammond after a water main break. Immigration Detention Concerns: A detainee who reported rape at Delaney Hall was transferred to Mississippi within days, raising concerns about access to care and investigation delays.
