Senator Bill Cassidy Attends the
ASES Annual Meeting
|
|
|
At the recent American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Annual Meeting held on October 11-14 in New Orleans, participants were greeted with remarks from the Senior Senator from the state of Louisiana, Bill Cassidy, MD (R). Senator Cassidy, a gastroenterologist, spoke about the importance of physician advocacy and why being involved has never been more important.
ASES, as the AAOS Advisor's Circle sub-specialty founding member, took their advocacy to the next level and hosted a private fundraising event for the Senator immediately following his remarks. Hosts of the event spent over an hour conversing with the Senator on the needs facing our specialty, including physician ownership, TSA coming off the CMS in-patient only list, the opioid epidemic, and again more refined tips on developing relationships with members of Congress to advance issues of importance. This was the first time ASES hosted an event for a member of Congress and impressively raised well over $20,000.
