Founded in 1948, WSSA was formed to advance the science and art of anesthesiology, and to stimulate interest and promote progress within the specialty.
Patients win when states prioritize transparency in medical titles. WSSA applauds California's ruling protecting patients from confusion about who is providing their care. See ASA's statement: https://t.co/aGAXlsZQPM

@realDonaldTrump Do not compromise patients and sacrifice the physicians that care for them by giving insurance companies price control.
Physicians do not want surprise medical bills for our patients.
@realDonaldTrump
is set to hand price control to #healthInsurance companies with an executive order tomorrow.
#Doctors don't want to surprise bill patients.
Handing for-profit companies the right to set our fees is the wrong answer https://t.co/3bD1fRwG5l
Physician anesthesiologists are uniquely educated and trained for critical moments — in the operating room, delivery room, and ICU. @ASALifeline https://t.co/N2lg21XIQf
Physician anesthesiologists are uniquely trained for the critical moments in health care — in the operating room, in the delivery room, in the intensive care unit — and they make anesthesia safer for everyone, from infants to older adults. #MadeForThisMoment
WSSA joins the APSF, ASA, WSMA and other societies in condemning racial inequities, discrimination, and violence that continue to threaten people of color.
The APSF stands with other medical societies in denouncing racism, race-related violence, and discrimination. Inequity threatens #patientsafety by undermining the health, well-being, and cohesion of teams delivering #anesthesia care.
