American College of Radiology Educates Congress About Imaging

One of the things that you frequently hear complained about in America is that the actions taken by legislators don't reflect the true needs of the people in America today. This sentiment has been heard echoed in the preventive health industry as the budget for radiology imaging has been cut again and again over the years. However, it doesn't do a whole lot of good to complain about the problem. According to the American College of Radiology, it makes a lot more sense to work on educating legislators about the issue so that they have motivation to take action.

That was precisely the topic at this week's Radiology Business Management Association (RBMA) meeting. People in the industry who are specifically working on educating Congress about the importance of continued funding for radiology spoke about their experiences in providing this education. They revealed statistics that seem to indicate that Congress is listening to what they have to say. This bodes well for the future funding and development of additional preventive health care throughout the nation.
