Risks for pathologists and the patients we serve are escalating rapidly with constant congressional and executive action on health care.
We are facing, without action by every member, these potential consequences:
- A devasting 3% cut in all pathology services in 2023 to pay for other increases in evaluation and management services
- Ever-widening shortages in the pathologist workforce without funding and commitment to expand GME slots
- A much-needed improved preparedness plan for the next untimely pandemic
The 2022 Pathologists Leadership Summit offers an agenda to strengthen your knowledge of these key issues, so on our Annual Hill Day, you will be prepared to confidently deliver pathology’s message concerning these issues in a manner that is relevant and impactful to lawmakers.
“The more individual voices we have, the louder our message will be to those who set the rules and make the rules. If we want to influence them to make sure that the rules that they set focus on quality patient care and making sure that pathologists can get paid for that quality patient care, we need that voice to be as loud as possible.” - Annual Hill Day Participant
