Physicians Payment Sunshine Act 2009 Update

This act would require exposure of financial ties between physicians and pharmaceutical companies, medical supply companies and manufacturer of medical devices. This relationship should be transparent. If you've read this blog, you'll understand why I support the efforts of Sen Charles Grassley to pass the Physicians Payment Sunshine Act 2009.

This has currently reached the Senate Finance Committee which is made up of the following senators. Contact them and support transparency in our health care system. Decisions should be made in the best interest of the patient...not big business and your doctor. This act would expose the ties that could interfere with the best choice for each patient...for YOU.
