August 2023 -- Earlier this week, the Alliance sent a letter to the leadership of the National Academies Standing Committee on Primary Care, urging them to consider increasing the number of representatives to be included in the newly established Standing Committee on Primary Care. Internal medicine is the specialty with the largest number of active physicians specializing in primary care, yet only two internal medicine physicians are listed in the provisional committee appointments. AAIM also recommended considering individuals from community-based teaching hospitals.
