AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Public Health Emergency: HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared a Public Health Emergency for Guam and CNMI after Super Typhoon Bavi, unlocking Medicare/Medicaid emergency flexibilities and helping providers keep care running and move patients without usual federal penalties. Power Restoration & Care Access: Guam Power Authority says 96% of normal operations are back, with Phase III restoration underway to fix isolated outages; the Department of Public Health and Social Services also reopened key environmental health services in Hagåtña for health certificates and permits. Healthcare Workforce Mentorship: University of Hawaiʻi’s JABSOM is supporting Guam’s future physician pipeline through the ʻImi Hoʻōla Program and Chålan Åmte, pairing students with mentors who understand the off-island specialty-care challenge. TRICARE Data Breach: TriWest Healthcare Alliance notified 11,844 beneficiaries of a breach that may have exposed protected health information, including names and DoD Benefits Numbers. Local Governance & Health Funding: Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero called the FY27 budget “unacceptable” and warned she’ll veto it, citing cuts that could hit healthcare and other core services. Disaster Food Support Push: A letter urges Guam and CNMI leaders to seek Emergency SNAP benefits for disaster-affected households, including non-SNAP recipients, after typhoon-related power outages spoiled refrigerated food. AG vs Governor Fees: Guam AG Douglas Moylan is opposing a governor request for $21,200 in attorney fees tied to a hospital authority case that has moved between Guam and federal court. Community Resilience: MCCA launched a Solar Generator Loaner Program on Tinian to provide backup power for mothers and expecting mothers, aiming to protect needs like refrigeration for medicine and formula.
