AGP Executive Report

Last update: 26 minutes ago

Workforce Watch: Louisiana’s geriatrician shortage is widening as the U.S. ages—one estimate puts Louisiana at 22.1 geriatricians per 100,000 adults 65+, well below the national 41.5, raising concerns about access to specialized care. Price Transparency: The Trump administration warned more than 500 hospitals to post required pricing or face penalties up to $2 million annually, with enforcement expected to tighten. Food Safety: The FDA upgraded an Alfredo sauce recall to Class I over possible salmonella risk, with distribution reported across 41 states including Louisiana. Maternal & Reproductive Health Policy: Republican AGs, including Louisiana’s, urged the EPA to treat the abortion pill mifepristone as a water contaminant, despite experts saying there’s no clear harm link. Community Health Support: Louisiana’s SUN Bucks summer program is continuing to help families cover groceries for kids who get free or reduced-price school meals. Local Care Expansion: Ochsner opened a new Baton Rouge MRI suite, adding advanced imaging capacity for patients. Public Safety: New Orleans police are investigating a French Quarter shooting that left a woman wounded.
