Yesterday was #NationalWomenPhysiciansDay

And no surprise, this week's #PolicyCapsule discusses gender equity - specifically #paygap, #parentalleave, & discrimination.

I even attempt some basic math to quantify the total $$$ (salary + interest) a female primary care physician will lose over 40 years due to the pay gap.

This post is complete with a case review, policy breakdown, call to action, and some math for good measure.
