The Rutherford-Lavanty Fellowship, named in honor of the first ACR® lobbyist, was founded to provide radiology residents direct exposure to ACR government relations activities.
The fellowship provides residents an understanding of state and federal legislative and regulatory processes and the ACR role therein. It also informs residents about governmental factors that play important roles in shaping the future of radiology.
This one-week program includes historical background on ACR congressional activities, exposure to the ACR Government Relations division and its relationship to the other activities of the ACR.
