The American College of Radiology Association® (ACRA®) Radiology Advocacy Network (RAN) requests all American College of Radiology® (ACR®) members contact their member of Congress to urge their support of H.R. 2474, the Strengthening Medicare for Patients and Providers Act. This bipartisan legislation would institute an annual inflation-based update to Medicare physician payments to help stabilize and provide much-needed reform to the current flawed system.

If members did not receive the ACRA call to action (CTA) and would like to participate or share the alert with others, it is posted on the Radvocacy website. To ensure that you are receiving advocacy alerts, please register to opt in to future advocacy alerts.

If you have questions about H.R. 2474, contact Rebecca Spangler, ACR Senior Government Affairs Director. If you have questions regarding the CTA or how to get involved with advocacy, contact Melody Ballesteros, ACR Assistant Director of Government Affairs.
