Legislative and Socioeconomics
Committee continues visits with legislators On Sept. 28, the BCMS Legislative and
Socioeconomics Committee met with Rep. Lyle Larson (House District 122) and
Candidate-elect Barbara Gervin-Hawkins (District 120) as part of the
committee’s continued efforts to meet with our state elected officials in
preparation for the upcoming legislative session which begins in
January. Several issues of importance to medicine were discussed,
including insurance issues, such as network adequacy, surprise billing and
the Texas Dept. of Insurance. For local discussion on these and
other legislative advocacy topics, consider joining the BCMS Legislative and
Socioeconomics Committee by contacting Mary Nava, chief government affairs
officer at mary.nava@bcms.org. |
