She called for a system that prioritizes maternal recovery alongside newborn care. In response, Oregon’s primary care physicians echoed her concerns, praising her vision while highlighting the state’s existing capacity for better, coordinated care — including programs that co-locate maternal and pediatric services. But they warned that recent funding cuts by the Health Authority threaten to undo progress, urging a shift toward team-based, sustainable models. The physicians offered to collaborate with Hathi to strengthen primary care — though her agency declined to comment, calling her op-ed a personal statement.
