From Bedside to Statehouse: Why Physicians Can't Afford to Skip Advocacy

In this episode of SNF THIS Chance talks with Dr. Noah Marco, Chief Medical Officer at Los Angeles Jewish Health and incoming president of CalTCM, about a career path almost no one plans for as a kid — and why he's stuck with long-term care for 38 years. Dr. Marco traces his family history (his parents were Holocaust survivors) to his lifelong pull toward advocacy, tells the surprisingly personal story behind why California's POLST form is pink, and lays out simple, concrete first steps for any clinician who wants a voice in policy but doesn't know where to start.
