We have been asked as an industry to represent the issue of how CMS has
enacted their reforms, and how it has affected us as
pracititioners/patients/business owners. Congress has asked the SBA [Small
Business Administration] to perform hearings into this issue. Therefore
there are two public forums created to investigate the issue. One is in
Seattle on June 6, and one on the east coast( sorry I am not sure on where
and when). These forums will include and be shared with congress, SBA and
the heads of CMS. This is finally our chance to be heard. It should be all
hands on deck. Everyone is invited.
Practitioners/patients/physicians/everyone involved. There will be a
limited amount of speakers, but all can write a one page testimony on the
form included. Yolanda Swift is the acting national ombudsman for the SBA.
The SBAs mission statement is to monitor and inform congress on unfair
implantation of the federal reform/policy to the private sector. AND SHE IS
COMPLETELY COMMITTED TO OUR ISSUES. In fact, she stated that she is
personally committed. We need to pack this place. We need to share this
with anyone who is interested.
Attached is the hearing flyer, a One Page Fact Sheet about the Office of
the National Ombudsman and the Comment Form. Please feel free to share this
information with other small businesses and their representatives.
Also we would love to get a head count on who may be able to attend, so
please e-mail if you are going to try to make it.
Feel free to email Doug Pinkley <Email Address Redacted> , Chelsey Pullman
<Email Address Redacted> or me if questions or head counts.
PS I am not able to attached the above forms, please email me at
<Email Address Redacted> for me to forward those to you.
Thank you,
