action letters

[Guest guest]

I have asked a lawyer friend of mine, who is also a patient to write

some letters that we can use to augment the efforts of IDF in

rallying our congressional leaders to make some changes in

medicare. Even though probably none of us are currently on medicare

the things that are happening there do affect us in a big way.

Insurance companies are starting to follow the pricing Medicare

sets. That means the problems we are seeing for Medicare patients

now will eventually affect our kids. Please go to the " Action

Letters " file and read what we have written. If you are willing to

help out, please either cut and past from that file or email me off

line and I will send you a copy of the file. We need your help to

make a difference. Please send the letters your self and in

addition have friends and family send them too. The more they get

the better. Our goal is to let them know there is more than IDF out

there and the numbers are growing. We really need to make a lot of

noise on this issue. IDF is having a Capital Hill day on April

6th. It can only help them if we get these letters to our

representitives before then. In additon once you have sent the

letter and you get others to send the letters, please let me know

how many get sent out. We are keeping track of this campaign for

two reasons, one to let IDF know and two IG Living would to track

our efforts for a possible future article. In addition to this we

would like people that are willing to try and set up meetings in

your area and invite your senators and congressional reps to talk

with you. If you are interested in being a leader for this type of

thing, please let me know and I will tell you how to do it.

This can only work if we all get together. Help us make some noise!!

thanks,
