ACR on Capitol Hill September 21
September 14, 2010
ACR, ARHP members and patient advocates will be meeting with members of Congress Tuesday, September 21 to discuss issues important to the rheumatology community. Take a few minutes to support their efforts by contacting your Representative and Senators to educate them on the impact of issues such as:
- The elimination of consultation service code
- The repeated battle to avert Medicare cuts
- Passage of the Arthritis Prevention, Control and Cure Act
- Increased research funding
Your active engagement in advocacy efforts will increase Congress' awareness of rheumatology and will have a direct impact on the legislative actions that affect your profession.
