OCAN is taking a stand in getting accessible treatment for all. Today we sent a letter to Congress expressing our strong support for the substitute amendment to the Treat and Reduce Obesity Act (TROA), H.R. 4818. We urge the Ways and Means Committee to prioritize this bill, as it has the potential to improve the future health of so many older Americans. Let’s work together to ensure Medicare beneficiaries with the disease of obesity have access to comprehensive treatment options. https://bit.ly/4cBegba #Obesity #TROA #ObesityTreatment #Medicare
