American Association for Homecare declares this week "Meek Week"


This is “Meek Week” – an ideal time to meet with your members of Congress while they are back in their home districts and ask them to support Rep. Kendrick Meek’s bill, H.R. 3790, to eliminate the “competitive” bidding program. By drastically cutting reimbursement rates and number of home medical equipment firms allowed to participate in Medicare, the bidding program promises to cripple the nation’s homecare sector – the most affordable, cost-effective form of health care available to Americans.

Later this week, a JAMES member company in Representative Pallone's district will be hosting an educational visit for Mr. Pallone's Legislative Director from the Washington, D.C. office.  The opportunity will be used to provide education about the HME industry, and the value our industry adds to homecare.
