Ways to Help

 

Take a Stand With Us!

The National MS Society is taking a stand in Washington to make sure we are at the discussion table when the health care reform meetings are taking place this summer in the 111th Congress.

Earlier this year, the NMSS released the National Health Care Reform Principles outlining seven major areas of interest the MS community wants Congress to remain aware of when reforming the current system. The principles are: access, affordability, standardization, eliminating disparities, comprehensive system, electronic records and long term care.

Click here for an overview of our health care reform principles, or click here for an in-depth look.  Our Health Care Reform Glossary contains definitions and descriptions of some of the terms used in these documents as well.

 


 

If you feel that health care reform is one of your priorities too then we need your help in making sure our Florida Congressional delegation continues to hear from us. The Florida chapters of the MS Society are also working in conjunction with partner organizations with similar health care priorities to keep the momentum strong.

Please sign up for the NMSS Action Alert system to stay abreast of the happenings.
