Last Monday, Aug. 17, a reception was held in honor of Congressman Michael Burgess, MD (R-Lewisville) at the Omni Hotel Colonnade.  A number of topics were discussed, including:  the post SGR landscape, ICD-10, physician-owned facilities, federal spending and taxes, and the Geographic Practice Cost Index (GPCI).

 

Many thanks to all the physicians and Alliance members who attended.
