Dear @AndreaSCousins - Do you really want to raise Queens Obstetricians’ medical liability insurance premiums to a quarter million $$$ per yr. ?

Passing S6636 will do just that! In the name of #WomensHealthcare Please consider the implications

@AndreaSCousins Here’s a real word example - Queens OB #MedicalLiability premium would rise to ~ $250K per yr (actuary) Consider young doc w Student debt

This would dissuade that doc from caring for Queens women.

Remember that unlike most biz who can pass on cost hikes to consumers, docs cannot - payments being limited by payors

So @AndreaSCousins S6636 is more than problematic- it really does threaten #WomensHealth

Fortunately there’s a better path forward and am happy to help

@AndreaSCousins Pls dot pass S6636 & let’s work together for better #WomensHeslth for all NY
