The American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head And Neck Surgery OPPOSES the "Healthcare Reform Bill"

Click Here to Make Sure The Bill Does NOT Pass!



AAO-HNS Members Contact Your U.S. Senators NOW and Urge Opposition to the Current Healthcare Reform Bill

Urge your U.S. Senators to Vote "NO" on the Senate Reform Legislation!

On November 18, 2009, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) introduced the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act." Throughout 2009, the AAO-HNS, in collaboration with the surgical community, has actively provided comments and suggested improvements to numerous healthcare reform proposals. Unfortunately, Senate leaders failed to incorporate our myriad suggestions and instead introduced legislation that creates new barriers for obtaining quality care, harms the physician/patient relationship, and further burdens our struggling healthcare system.

It is critical that your Senators hear from you NOW!

With questions, contact Megan Marcinko, Senior Manager of Congressional and Political Affairs, at 703-535-3796 or legfederal@entnet.org.

Thank you in advance for responding to this alert!
