This week we cleared another hurdle on the way to passing the Lymphedema Treatment Act!
On Wednesday, June 8th, the Ways and Means Heath Subcommittee conducted a hearing entitled “Legislation to Improve and Sustain the Medicare Program.” The LTA was one of the bills included in this hearing!
Watch our sponsor, Representative Dave Reichert, deliver his testimony, during which he also commends the work of our patient advocates!
This is yet another major milestone, but we’re not there yet. Pleasecontact your members of Congress using the links below. Once is notenough – the squeaky wheel gets the grease!
If they are not yet cosponsors (Senate cosponors / House cosponsors)explain why this bill is so important to you and ask them to sign on. If they are, say thank you and ask them to do whatever they can tomake sure the LTA is passed this year.
We’ve come so far – please take action today!
