As a complement to its ongoing work with policymakers, the ACR is working closely with similar cognitive specialty organizations including the American Academy of Neurology, American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, The Endocrine Society, the Infectious Diseases Society of America, the North American Neuro-Ophthalmology Society, and the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology. Working together as the Cognitive Specialty Coalition, the organizations collectively represent more than 68,500 physicians across the United States.
Will You Share your Patient Evaluation and Management Story?
The ACR is always in need of stories that can be shared with members of Congress. Specific examples of how you care for your patients—and, in particular, how you manage patients with chronic conditions—are very compelling to members of Congress and increase their understanding of rheumatology’s unique situation. Send your stories to [email protected] or call (404) 633-3777 to speak with ACR government affairs staff. Your involvement makes a very real difference in policy outcomes.
