On the Hill: Prepare for September — Join the Federal Action Network!

September 4, 2024
Julia Cecil

As you prepare for a busy fall advocating for your hospital and your patients, get the tools, background, and other resources you need by joining our Federal Action Network (FAN).

FAN members have exclusive access to an extensive repository of key hearing summaries, position papers, and other documents and links that can support your advocacy. Also, access our members-only election toolkit for tips and guidance on connecting with your candidates ahead of Election Day.

Also, FAN members have access to quarterly webinar programming, such as our Sept. 30 webinar, “Turn Provider Stories into Productive Advocacy,” featuring Chris Lombardozzi, MD, senior vice president and chief medical officer, quality, at Spartanburg (S.C.) Regional Healthcare System, along with other essential hospital advocates and experts.

FAN members also are eligible to participate in the Essential Hospitals Political Action Committee, a bipartisan PAC dedicated to supporting lawmakers on Capitol Hill who champion essential hospital issues. Our 2023-24 election cycle has shown tremendous growth, in both dollars disbursed and number of key lawmakers supported. You can see who received Essential Hospitals PAC support on our website.
