Since CAP’s inception, our physician members have demonstrated a commitment to public affairs, especially when it comes to preserving the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act (MICRA). But the impact of activities in Sacramento and in Washington, D.C., on the practice of medicine does not stop with MICRA and CAP wants to keep our members informed on a wide range of state and federal public affairs activities.
CAP currently serves our members’ appetite for public affairs intrigue through CAPsules, social media, and www.CAPphysicians.com. To give members even more current information on bill activities in California and in Washington, D.C., CAP now offers insider information to members who choose to opt in for regular email updates.
By becoming a CAP Public Affairs Insider, members can keep track of curated legislative and regulatory activities affecting the practice of medicine and access to care. To start receiving your Insider update by email, simply contact us at PACinfo@CAPphysicians.com with your name and preferred email address with the message: “I want to be a CAP Public Affairs Insider!”
CAP’s new Public Affairs Insiders – and all CAP members – should also mark their calendars for Saturday, September 7, 2019, for CAP’s first Public Affairs Symposium to be held at CAP’s main office in downtown Los Angeles. For the symposium, we are preparing a special morning program providing top-level political and policy commentators on the state of MICRA and other healthcare-related topics. These are the experts who help guide CAP’s all-physician state and federal Political Action Committees and they look forward to sharing their political observations and legislative analyses with the membership at large. Registration for the symposium is now open: just write us at PACinfo@CAPphysicians.com with your contact information and the message: “I Will Be at the CAP Public Affairs Symposium!”
CAP believes that our members are among the most sophisticated physicians in California when it comes to protecting access to care through public affairs activities. Through such programs as the Public Affairs Insiders and the Public Affairs Symposium, CAP hopes to not only provide new and detailed information to our members, but to also learn more from our members about how CAP can help physicians succeed in a complicated regulatory environment.
We look forward to providing you more information on the Public Affairs Symposium as September draws closer. In the meantime, there’s no need to wait to become a Public Affairs Insider – just contact us at PACinfo@CAPphysicians.com today!
