Welcome to our inaugural edition of 5 Things We’re Watching in Maryland health care. This market and policy intelligence newsletter covers Maryland health care and health policy, and highlights some of our independent reporting on state and federal issues.
We are funded through readers, and our conference goers at our annual event. Our stuff is policy agnostic, and non-partisan as a result. Our content is also slower, less “breaking” and breathless, and less sexy than sites built on impression-based revenue.
We would love to have you give us a shot, read our stuff, and if we have value to your work, we’d be honored to stay in your inbox.

The most prominent on the list is Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has become a household name as he lead efforts to contain the coronavirus outbreak. Fauci has served as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984, which is part of the Maryland-based National Institute of Health.
Dr. Vivek Murthy, an internal medicine specialist in Baltimore, will be Biden’s nominee for surgeon general. Murthy was also surgeon general during the Obama administration.
