From the Washington Office

In closing, I urge all Fellows to contact the offices of their representatives and senators – whether by phone, e-mail, logging on to www.surgeonsvoice.org, or paying a personal visit to their local district office – and seize the opportunity to support favorable action on the SGR Repeal and Medicare Provider Payment Modernization Act of 2014 (S. 2000/H.R. 4015) during the lame duck session.

Until next month …

Dr. Bailey is a pediatric surgeon and Medical Director, Advocacy, for the Division of Advocacy and Health Policy, in the ACS offices in Washington, D.C.
