“An historic day for healthcare in America; few thought we’d ever see this day; families everywhere will benefit as health returns to America’s healthcare agencies.”
– Dr. Joseph Varon
(Washington DC) – Independent Medical Alliance (IMA) President and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Joseph Varon, released the following statement today on the confirmation of RFK Jr. to HHS Secretary.
“This is an historic day for healthcare in America, and one that will be written about for centuries to come. Few thought we’d ever see this day. But frontline docs fought hard for wholesale changes after the eye-opening, heavy handed government response to COVID-19. Today all of that effort has paid off.
“Americans demand reform to a broken system that spends more money on healthcare than any other industrialized nation, yet delivers some of the worst outcomes. Everything must now be on the table, from the food we eat to the medicines that Big Pharma has peddled on healthcare consumers.
“Historic change is coming, and families everywhere will benefit as health returns to America’s healthcare agencies.”

Independent Medical Alliance – IMA (formerly Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, FLCCC), is the nation’s leading organization of front-line healthcare providers. IMA Action (IMAAction.org) is the 501c4 advocacy arm of the Independent Medical Alliance (IMAHealth.org), a 501c3 non-profit organization.
IMA Action launched a widespread grassroots campaign over the weekend, contacting more than one hundred thousand Louisiana families advocating for confirmation of RFK Jr. to HHS Secretary and helping constituents connect with Senator Cassidy’s state offices to express their views.
And, last week, IMA Action delivered a letter to the US Senate advocating for confirmation of RFK Jr. – a letter which now includes signatures from over 31,000 doctors, healthcare providers, scientists and concerned citizens. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) entered this letter into the official US Senate records.
Additionally, IMA Action undertook a 9-state digital advertising campaign last week advocating for confirmation of RFK Jr. and had a very visible presence at the US Capitol throughout the hearings.
