ATC Treating Medicare Patients

[Guest guest]

This was a post on the Oklahoma PT group. Just forwarding for everyone's

information and input. It was sent by an ATC, so that is why it is positively

based in support of AT treating Medicare patients. Those in Oklahoma may want

to contact the congressman with their respective viewpoint.
