AOPA Policy Forum take aways

Let's get right to it. Just got back from the AOPA Policy Forum, here is what I learned.

Congresspersons and Senators and their respective staffers have no clue of the of the impact the Pre-payment audits and RAC audits are having on our profession and the Medicare beneficiaries we serve.

If our elected officials do not have knowledge of our concerns it is our fault, pure and simple.

Please take the time to save your business, some are already gone many are on the edge and no one is immune, if allowed to go on unchecked the independent O&P provider could disappear. The access and choice for care for patients will be eroded. The standard of care will go backward as our technology tries to push us forward. The Certified and Licensed practitioner will be replaced as we will become commoditized.

Please stand up for yourselves, let your voices be heard. You are all welcome to use the, www.Speak4OandP.com platform to contact you elected officials, it is free, effective and easy.
You must decide who will define you, if you allow CMS to define you then your apathy will result in changing not only your business but our profession.
