Call to Action from CalOptima Regarding Duals Demonstration

CalOptima is measuring physician interest in a direct contract model for the dual-eligible demonstration that will launch in Orange County in April, 2014. If there are not enough physicians interested in the direct contract model, it may be difficult for the CalOptima board of directors to support the model. See the "Call to Action" below that CalOptima issued to the physician community.

CALL TO ACTION: CONTACT CONGRESS AND URGE THEM TO PROTECT HEALTH CARE TODAY!

Congress has three weeks left to stop the 26.5 percent Medicare sustainable growth rate (SGR) physician payment cuts (to take effect on January 1, 2013) before they adjourn for the holidays. The Orange County Medical Association urges physicians to keep the pressure on Congress to stop these cuts.
