Doctor of Physical Therapy, runner, Iron Triber,loves the outdoors, naps, books. Will either inspire or piss off folks through subtle and not so subtle means.
.@SeemaCMS@CMSGov The 8% cuts to PTs in the face of mounting evidence for our roles in healthy aging, fall prevention, and stark reduction in opioid exposure and overall costs is inexplicable and irresponsible. Our US citizens & publicly supported health system deserves better.
Alabama- there are safer alternatives! With unrestricted direct access to physical therapy, you could easily seek physical therapy as approach to your chronic pain! #PT4AL#freemyhealthcare
Shout out to Alabama Senator @DougJones for signing on to co-sponsor Senate Bill 970, Physical Therapist Workforce and Patient Access Act of 2019. This bill would allow PTs to participate in the National Health Service Corps loan repayment program. Thank you, Senator Jones!!
We must start now! We’re kicking off our unrestricted patient access push today! Stay tuned to see how you can help us be successful in 2020! #freemyhealthcare#PT4AL#patientaccess2020

A YES vote to HB 50 and SB 25 means affordability and better access to healthcare.
A NO vote means the legislators don't want this for the people of AL.
