Why should I go to Capital Hill?
The ACR Annual Meeting and Chapter Leadership Conference is a new
meeting for the ACR. In the past the College held an annual governance
meeting and a separate meeting focusing on radiology advocacy. This
year's AMCLC combines these meetings. In today's healthcare system,
advocacy is an important function of working to assure quality patient
care in radiology. The U.S. Congress makes many decisions impacting the
practice of radiology. For this reason, it is important to communicate
with your representatives on these issues. You can shape the future of
radiology. The AMCLC and RPS meeting will include political information
sessions in order to prepare you for making Congressional visits. Want
to go? Make sure to include your home address on the meeting
registration brochure and check yes in box #5.
