I haven’t found anyone who knows for sure how that language got into the platform, but when I asked Lee Goldberg of the SEIU’s Long Term Care Division, he listed everyone anyone else had mentioned and then some. So here’s his best guess: “Probably the result of that message coming from a lot of different corners: us, you, IOM panel participants, coalition partners in LCAO, etc…”

“Through training and reimbursement incentives, there must be a commitment to sufficient and well-qualified primary care physicians and nurses as well as direct care workers.”
