Please do not sit this out – this proposed rule is coming at a time when federal agencies – including CMS – are facing Congressional pressure to reduce spending. Now more than ever, it is important that psychology be represented in the public response to this proposal, to stress the need to preserve funding and strengthen access to mental and behavioral health services. Whether modifying new proposals to be inclusive of behavioral health or showing support for favorable policies, good policy becomes a reality only when we advocate in large numbers. Two minutes of action on your part can protect access to key psychological services and enhance equity for underserved communities – take action today! |
