AAHAM needs your help. We have a strong chance to have another successful campaign on Capitol Hill, but we need your help to make it a success. It will only take a few minutes and yet you will accomplish so much.
Last April, AAHAM members met with 51 members of Congress and their staff. During those meetings, we identified four issues that, taken together, could reduce administrative costs in healthcare by about $30 billion according to the US Healthcare Efficiency Index.
Those issues are included in the pending healthcare reform legislation in the Administrative Simplification Section. We are asking Congress to preserve Administrative Simplification in whatever bill is passed and signed by the President.
If reform cannot be done this year, AAHAM is urging Congress to introduce Administrative Simplification as a cost containment measure so that healthcare spending can at least begin to decrease.
NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT.
