FY27 House budget calls AHRQ "duplicative." As @academyhealth.bsky.social highlights here, and as I wrote as well (mirandayaver.substack.com/p/why-house-...), this is false. AHRQ does the essential work of funding health systems research & training the next generation.
Call Congress: 202-224-3121

The House of Representatives is at it again, working to eliminate the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a proposed cut that is as misguided as it is dangerous.
AcademyHealth opposes the House FY27 Labor-HHS funding bill, which would eliminate AHRQ and cut off funding for patient-centered research.
These programs are essential to improving care quality, safety, and access. Defunding them weakens our ability to build better health care. buff.ly/6HjTvqQ
