After carefully evaluating the changes contained in the manager's amendment filed by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), the AMA Board of Trustees voted to support passage of H.R. 3590. In a letter of support to Sen. Reid, the AMA noted the need for additional changes in the final conference committee agreement that reconciles the differences between the House and Senate bills.
The AMA Board's decision to support passage of the amended version of H.R. 3590 is consistent with the recommendation from the AMA Council on Legislation that the AMA support H.R. 3590 while seeking additional changes in the House-Senate conference committee agreement. Check the AMA website for more detailed analysis.
