Ask Your Senators to Support Medical Director Transparency
March 31, 2023
Policy Snapshot
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 appropriations process is underway. Encourage your senators to support transparency for nursing home medical directors. Your senators can join by signing on to a letter to Appropriations Subcommittee members encouraging them to add language in their report to identify better ways to publicly disclose nursing facility medical directors through mechanisms like data.cms.gov.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) is inviting her colleagues to join her and support nursing homes by improving medical director engagement to reduce vaccine hesitancy, improve staff morale, and improve outcomes for patients and residents. Ask your senators to join their colleagues today!
