Learn about the Supplemental Oxygen Access Reform Act in PHA’s next virtual advocacy town hall. Join us at 2 p.m. EDT Thursday, Aug. 29 to find out how the proposed legislation would affect the PH community. This meeting will wrap up our August Advocacy Challenge. In this webinar, Pulmonary Hypertension Association board member Colleen Connor and other patient advocates will share experiences and challenges of using supplemental oxygen. PHA Advocacy and Treatment Access Program Manager Jaeger Spratt will dive into the issues and discuss the bill’s progress through the legislative process. The SOAR Act, which proposes to remove supplemental oxygen from Medicare’s competitive bidding process, would make oxygen and related equipment more affordable and accessible for Medicare beneficiaries.
