Thursday: DO Day on Capitol Hill, Register Now for DO Day on Capitol Hill 2010 Registration has officially opened for the April 29, 2010 DO Day on Capitol Hill. DO Day is the osteopathic profession's premier advocacy event. It highlights the osteopathic profession and its future by bringing in osteopathic physicians, medical students and members of the osteopathic family to Washington, DC to advocate on key health care issues. Join your colleagues in Washington, DC on April 29th for DO Day on Capitol Hill and make an impact on the future of medicine. *Registration for this event will close on March 31 at 5:00pm Eastern. Only cancellations will be accepted after this date. DO Day on Capitol Hill is the preeminent opportunity for DOs and students to come to Washington, D.C., and lobby Members of Congress and their staff face-to-face. Prior to the event, participants will receive briefing materials on the key issues to be discussed. Once in Washington, osteopathic advocates will participate in a morning legislative briefing, attend scheduled meetings with Members of Congress and their staff, and report the results in a debriefing room. Participation in this event is important for members of the osteopathic community. The time you take off from your practice demonstrates the osteopathic community's dedication to protecting and preserving the cornerstones of osteopathic medicine. This is a prime opportunity to educate Members of Congress and their staff about osteopathic medicine and communicate our positions on important health policy issues where legislation is crafted-Capitol Hill. "It's so important for members of the osteopathic community to be here for our DO Day on Capitol Hill. It demonstrates the community is dedicated to protecting and preserving the cornerstones of osteopathic medicine," according to Marcelino Oliva, DO, Chairman of AOA's Council on Federal Health Programs. "The more people we can get to participate in this event, the more Capitol Hill will understand osteopathic medicine and welcome our positions on important health policy issues." If you need more information about this event or future DO Days on Capitol Hill, please contact Leann Fox at (800) 962-9008 or via e-mail at govt-issues@osteopathic.org.
