President's Messageoctober 2024Several Florida chapter members visited Washington, DC at the end of September to advocate for you and your patients. Our top priority was a demand to reverse the 2.8% cut to Medicare slated for next year. We also discussed other vital issues including prior authorization reform, CV screening for athletes, access and training for AED's, and care via telehealth. We hope you will join us next year, and if you have never been to DC before, we make sure everyone is up to speed before we ask you to see one, do one, teach one!! We had several first timers this year, including Dr. Jennifer Co-Vu who was kind enough to shoot this video for me. Save the date for next year's Legislative Conference: October 5-7, 2025.
