ATRA RT Medicare Project Progresses!

The ATRA RT Medicare Project continues to move forward and we have great momentum from the ATRA Day on the Hill held in March 2007! Many thanks to the ATRA RT Medicare Project State Coordinators who coordinated the 150 Capitol Hill visits.

ATRA is making a difference in advocating for the profession on Capitol Hill. Please join us by helping your state coordinator educate the elected officials from your state and by making a contribution to the project www.atra-tr.org/medicareproject/

May 22, 2007 - a Day in ATRA's History

Today is the first day of the ATRA blog - yeah! We are excited about this opportunity to network with our members, consumers and other allied health professionals, as we share what ATRA has been up to and the services we provide. We want to use this blog to tell you what has been happening here in the National Office, and we encourage you to take the opportunity to share your thoughts, ideas and comments.

ATRA is a grassroots organization, and our members' input matters. We look forward to hearing from you.
