You made some very valid points in you e-mail unfortunately you lost points
in the Shotgun approach to topics. I attended a NegReg hearing to present
testimony as a PT and CPO. The reason NegReg failed was not because of the O&P
representatives who volunteered their time to attend these meetings. It was
more due to the number of people who wanted a piece of the pie and would not
accept the argument the people should be educated and trained to provide O&P
services. Most just wanted to provide a product and cash in on a meal
ticket rather than provide quality healthcare service. By the way the day I was
there I do not remember seeing anyone from Hanger there but dedicated
practitioners who have been involved in O&P for many years more than I have and it is
my 20th year in the industry.
