THANK YOU Senate Health & Welfare committee members Senator Pro Tem Beth Mizell, and Senators Patrick McMath and Rogers Pope for voting against HB 495!

[Marilyn Heine @MarilynHeineMD]

👉 @louisianasenate should learn from studies and other states:

Removing the physician from the healthcare team ➡️
❗️Higher healthcare patient costs
❗️Overprescribing
❗️Overutilization of diagnostic imaging
❗️APRNs do NOT gravitate to rural areas

@lalegis #lalege vote NO HB495

[Marilyn Heine @MarilynHeineMD]

Put patients first: NO on HB495

In surveys:
•Majority of patients prefer a physician leads the team
•95% said it’s important for physicians to be involved in diagnoses & treatment decisions

HB 495 REMOVES the physician from healthcare team❗️
