Tuesday,
November 6, may prove to be a most important election day for our industry.
DME/HME has a great deal at stake this year. We must bring or return to
Congress both Representatives and Senators who know and understand what
homecare really is about. They must comprehend that a great number of their
constituents are senior citizens and that the baby boom generation is about to
enter that category.
These
people want to live in their homes. They do not wish to live
together with other family members. They do not wish to enter into any type of senior home care or other facility.
Since
one of the strengths of a DME/HME provider is his relations with both his
patients and their family caregivers. They will listen when you speak about defeating
the competitive bid. They will respond if you suggest they speak to their
Representative to support MPP. You all have a tremendous amount of strength to
bring about change. Together with your clients support those candidates that
will defend you as well as their constituents.
Yes,
you have that strength! There are only a few days left until we vote. This year
the elections will be very close. Every single vote you bring to “our” side
will make things happen. Each vote is so critical.
If
you need any tools just call your state or national association and they will
cheerfully provide what you need. Please start speaking and calling and get
involved. Your future has a great potential. Get the voters stirred up!
NO ONE ELSE HAS THE ABILITY AND POWER
TO DO WHAT YOU CAN !!
