Comments from members of the Council focused on concerns about emergency physician payments, projects that ultimately were cut from the reform package, and the tables at which ACEP needs a seat now to protect and promote the interests of emergency patients and emergency physicians.

“The tables I want to be at are small tables in someone’s office, the people who are actually writing the regulations,” said Dean Wilkerson, ACEP Executive Director.

Mr. Wilkerson also explained that emergency physicians can and should get involved in the process, as well, by staying informed and informing ACEP of crucial issues at the state and local levels, joining the 911 network or the spokespersons network, writing concise newspaper editorials, staying active in their chapters, and donating to NEMPAC.
