Abstract

Health care policy in the United States is made by nonphysician lawmakers and government employees. Through advocacy and lobbying, physicians have an opportunity to be involved in the process. Interventional radiologists (IRs) are the experts on issues related to IR. Government relation offers IRs the opportunity to engage with members of Congress, officials in Federal and State agencies, and State legislators to inform and influence their decision making. The Society of Interventional Radiology PAC (SIRPAC) is the only PAC to represent the interests of interventional radiology. Increased contributions to SIRPAC are essential to be sure that the voice of IR is heard.

政府关系与介入放射学。

美国的医疗保健政策是由非物理学家立法者和政府雇员制定的。通过宣传和游说，医生有机会参与这一过程。介入放射科医生（IRs）是与IR相关问题的专家。政府关系为IRs提供了与国会议员、联邦和州机构官员以及州立法者接触的机会，以告知和影响他们的决策。介入放射学学会PAC（SIRPAC）是唯一代表介入放射学利益的PAC。增加对SIRPAC的捐款对于确保IR的声音被听到至关重要。
