Thank you, @texmed and the Texas Delegation, for supporting my election to the @AmerMedicalAssn Council on Medical Service.

Congratulations to #MelissaGarretson on her #AMA Board of Trustee election.

This is a great update by @TexMed Pres. @DocRayC Callas regarding scope expansion bills and what #TMA - with help from @AmerMedicalAssn - is doing to stop them.

."The @texmed leaders also encouraged the committee to address the barriers between Texans and current health insurance market options, some of which they said are erected by health plans: inadequate networks, out-of-date provider directories, onerous prior authorization requirements, patient steering, and disparate payment for telemedicine and in-person services among them. Others, such as complicated enrollment processes for public programs like Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program, fall within the state’s domain"

Congrats to @TexMed Associate VP Sylvia Salazar @sylsalazar on becoming president of the American Association of Medical Society Executives. Well deserved, and a reminder of how fortunate Texas physicians are to have such amazing staff working on our behalf at #TMA.

[Yasser Zeid @YZeid]

Dear @repnatemoran, please help preserve patient access to physicians by signing the Bera Bucshon letter. In rural areas in particular, many physicians are contemplating closing their offices due to operating costs. Non-metro counties need more physicians, not less. @TexMed

[Vivek U Rao, MD @VivekRaoMD]

That’s a wrap! Thank you #AMAmtg Reference Committee G chair @zekesilva3 and all the other committee volunteers for your work. Your efforts — along with those of our speakers, resolution authors, HOD members, and staff — will ensure @AmerMedicalAssn has strong policy to guide it.

[Vivek U Rao, MD @VivekRaoMD]

Heard this morning at #AMAmtg:
H.R. 2474 will help keep physician practices viable, but it will be a hard sell with Congress. Everyone - patients and physicians - will need to contact legislators and push for this. https://t.co/elBdn02rpL

The AMA TX Delegation led the way today toward stabilizing Medicare for patients. TMA President Rick Snyder, MD, said, “Today our nation’s physicians declared Medicare reform as an urgent, top advocacy and legislative priority,” with strategic solutions. https://t.co/CY8HW1Sufz

[Vivek U Rao, MD @VivekRaoMD]

Thank you @AmerMedicalAssn House of Delegates for making Medicare physician payment reform a top priority and voting today to step up its advocacy efforts to achieve this. We need this if we want to keep physician practices viable and preserve patient access to physicians.
