Words from the California Academy of Family Physicians regarding recent legislation…call your congressperson at home if you can, otherwise there’s a link to connect.  BD 

Today, July 1, 2008 is the effective date of the 10% Medi-Cal cuts, the day California begins operating without a budget, and the day that the 10.6% Medicare cut kicks in as well. In my office, that means I will be paid 10% less for nearly half of my patient population. Doctors are notoriously bad at finances, but even I can see this is not a good way to run a business and make payroll!

Use AAFP’s Speak Out link for a very easy way to connect; an even better method is to call your district office this week while your House member is at home.
