Letter to Congress and US Senate Regarding Medicaid Cuts
Join us in celebrating the installation of Thomas “Steen” Trawick, MD on Friday, August 1 as LSMS’ 145 TH President. Your registration fee includes a ticket to the Inauguration Luncheon and Party. Dr. Trawick is a Board-Certified Internal Medicine physician in the Shreveport-Bossier community for over 22 years.
LSMS, along with members of the Coalition of State Medical Associations, submitted a letter to Congress and the US Senate urging both to protect Medicaid in the House Budget Resolution. All states agree that “If these cuts are enacted millions of our Medicaid patients will lose their coverage and we expect all Medicaid patients to lose some of their existing benefits and access to essential health care services. Once our patients lose coverage, their health conditions will worsen and the financial burden will shift to the states, physicians, emergency rooms, hospitals, and all other patients.” To read the full letter, scan the QR code.
