In this episode of Fighting for Family Medicine, AAFP Vice President of Government Relations David Tully recaps the Academy's September advocacy efforts before sitting down with Julie Harrison, Senior Manager of State Affairs and Member Advocacy, to examine some of the biggest policy trends and state-level wins for family medicine during the 2026 legislative sessions. Tully highlights the AAFP's advocacy efforts during the months of August and September, including immunizations, Medicare physician payment, prior authorization, rural obstetric care and the primary care workforce. He also reviews several regulatory issues the AAFP weighed in over the past several weeks. The conversation then turns to state legislatures, where Julie identifies four major themes from 2026: scope of practice, insurer reform, physician workforce investment, and increased attention to primary care investment. She highlights efforts involving prior authorization and insurer downcoding, loan repayment and physician recruitment, primary care spending and policies supporting physician-led, team-based care. The AAFP maintains state policy resources covering these issues, including backgrounders on prior authorization, primary care spending, scope of practice and workforce policy. Julie also explains why state advocacy matters even for physicians who do not consider themselves policy experts. She encourages family physicians to stay connected with their state chapters, use AAFP advocacy resources, and respond when opportunities arise to contact lawmakers or share firsthand experiences from practice. The episode emphasizes that many policies affecting day-to-day patient care and medical practice are decided at the state level — and that physician participation can help inform those decisions.
