November 30 is the latest deadline for Congress to act to fix the broken Medicare payment system.  With the Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) set to reduce Medicare payment by 23 percent on December 1, physicians and their patients need to act now.  Gearing up for a full-court press effort this fall, AAFP has released a Medicare Action Toolkit to help family physicians and their patients generate support for fixing the system.  Download the Medicare Action Fact Sheet, a sample letter for you to send your patients and a sample letter for your patients to send Congress.
