AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Patient Access: Tripler Army Medical Center has removed its annual cap on patients from Micronesia, potentially expanding free specialty care and round-trip airfare for eligible Palau patients referred by Tripler doctors. Food as Medicine: Hawaiʻi’s Medicaid program could begin offering prescriptions for fresh food as soon as January, reaching more than 100,000 residents and supporting local farms. Public Health Alerts: The state is investigating two Legionnaires’ disease cases among visitors who stayed at Kauaʻi’s Nihi Kai Villas; anyone who stayed there and develops pneumonia should contact the Department of Health. Hawaiʻi also reported its 11th travel-related dengue case of 2026, on Oʻahu. Product Safety: DOH warned residents about recalled ashwagandha capsules over salmonella risk and toddler snack bars recalled for a choking hazard.
