Description
Summary:Developed by PPAC; reviewed by APTA's components, keyboard-appointed committees, and Federal Affairs Liaisons; and approved by the APTA Board of Directors, the intended audience for the 8-page document are members of Congress, Capitol Hill staff, federal agencies, and the administration. Patient Access and Care APTA urges Congress and the administration to improve patient outcomes by eliminating barriers to health care services. According to Trizuto, "We need to support legislation and regulation, both locally and nationally, that gives us opportunity to increase diversity in the workforce and access to care for people in rural and underserved areas." [...]the message of APTA's 2022 public service campaign was about improving movement and the benefits of increasing physical activity.
