ADVOCACY CENTER: Become an Advocate

Become an Access Advocate

Legislative issues arise in the US Congress that affect patient access to medical technology. These issues may include:
  • Medicare reforms to streamline the current fifteen month to five year or longer process required by Medicare to cover fully an FDA approved technology
  • FDA reforms to modernize the agency and assure that safe and effective technologies reach patients quickly
  • Reforms that will help expand insurance coverage to the uninsured
  • Overall Medicare reform that may provide seniors with more health plan choices
If you would like to receive special alerts of such legislation as well as recommendations on how to make your voice heard on these issues, please fill out the following form. Your information will be used only to keep you posted about advocacy issues.
