Goals
- Evaluate proposed legislation to understand its impact on interventional cardiologists and our patients.
- Ongoing outreach to federal agencies (evaluate and develop comment letters in response to proposed FDA, CMS, NIH, AHRQ federal regulations, getting to know agencies/outreach to federal agencies, assess existing relationships with agencies).
- Support select new interventional cardiology technologies by advocating for coverage and reimbursement of those technologies, when appropriate to support patient-centered decision making.
- Engage in federal and state-level legislative and regulatory proposals to positively influence the outcome.
- Identifying members who have strong contacts with key members of Congress.
