NYS SOciety of ORTHOPAEDIC Surgeons

Your contribution does not stand alone –  it is a symbol of unity amongst New York’s orthopaedists in ensuring that patients receive the 
quality of orthopaedic care they deserve.

You have a unique opportunity to engage in the advocacy process and effectuate change through the Ortho Political Action Committee (OrthoPAC).  As one of the few specialty societies in New York with a PAC, NYSSOS is positioned to collectively support activities that help create an optimal practice environment in which to provide quality and efficacious care. Even if you have never donated before, today we invite you to enhance your advocacy efforts, strengthen the success of the Society and contribute to the PAC.

It is critical that NYSSOS support and advocate for the campaigns of policymakers who understand the current and long-term challenges that orthopaedists face when practicing in New York. At times, it can seem that efforts to impact legislative or regulatory decisions made in Albany are slow or stalled. However, having a unified, pro-active voice will enable us to impact how laws or regulations are drafted and implemented. 

Your donation allows NYSSOS to continue its advocacy efforts on behalf of important state issues such as preventing inappropriate scope expansions, enabling physicians to collectively negotiate, ensuring out-of-network adequacy and protecting the ability of orthopaedic surgeons to provide office-based imaging and therapy services.

If you have contributed to the Ortho PAC in the past, we thank you and commend you for your involvement in the political process.  We hope that you will continue your contributions. 

If you have never ventured into the advocacy arena, now is the time and contributing to the PAC is your first step.  It will provide you with a direct route to share your personal, professional concerns with state representatives and policymakers.
