Take Action

  • Prior Auth Reform Needed in PA

    Urge your legislator to support vital legislation that would reform the state's burdensome and inefficient prior authorization process.

  • Support Kaufer amendment (#A3599) and Rothman amendment (#A3601) to HB 1862

    Contact your Representative and urge them to support the Kaufer amendment (#A3599) and the Rothman amendment (#A3601) to HB 1862. These are critical amendments that health insurers are trying to kill. HB 1862 sets a benchmark rate in statute for out-of-network providers.

  • Urge Your State Senator to Support Expanding Lawsuit Abuse Protections to all Physicians Treating COVID-19 Patients

    While the executive order Gov. Wolf signed granting medical liability immunity protections for SOME health care workers treating COVID-19 patients is a good first step, it does not cover practitioners in outpatient settings, leaving them vulnerable to personal injury lawyers. Urge your State Senator to support Senate Bill 1239, which would expand medical liability immunity to include all health care practitioners, regardless of practice setting.

  • Oppose HB 2779 (Retaining Health Care Innovations Act)

    House Bill 2779 would extend the temporary administrative flexibilities granted by Gov. Wolf to health care facilities, practitioners, and providers during the COVID-19 pandemic for one year after the end of the emergency declaration or termination of the statewide disaster declaration. PAMED opposes this bill because we believe it could put patients at risk. We encourage you to voice your opposition to your Representative if he or she sits on the House Health Committee where this bill is currently awaiting consideration.
