The current CR this week is asking for more cuts to provider pay from Medicare. Call your congressmen and tell them the providers deserve better reimbursement. This jeopardizes access to care for millions. www.medicaleconomics.com/view/house-p...

medicaleconomics.comHouse proposed budget would not restore Medicare reimbursement cuts to physiciansRestoring pay had majority support, but medical associations blast federal budget for ignoring that, jeopardizing patient access.

Please share far & wide and encourage everyone you know to call. 202-224-3121. Cuts to Medicaid are deadly.
