CSA Resident Sponsorship ASA Legislative Conference 2023

 

CSA Resident/Fellow Opportunity – Sponsorship to ASA’s 2023 Legislative Conference

 

The ASA is hosting their annual legislative conference this May 15 – 17, 2023 in Washington, D.C.

 

Every year, the CSA sponsors four residents or fellows to join the delegation and learn from media and public policy experts in Washington about recent developments in health care legislation and how to effectively communicate the importance of physician-led anesthesia care to the media, the public, and policymakers. We then put that training to use as we visit with members of Congress and their staff to educate and advocate on behalf of our specialty. 

 

The opportunity includes the full cost for four residents/fellows including airfare, hotel, and a per diem to attend the conference.

 

If you are interested in attending the conference, please fill out this brief application ASAP and no later than Sunday, March 12th.

 

This is an incredible opportunity for any resident or fellow interested in advocacy and media relations, and how they can be used to advance the interests of physician anesthesiologists and our patients.  Find out more about the ASA Legislative Conference here.

 

If you have any questions, please contact Megan MacNee, CSA Deputy Executive Director, at mmacnee@csahq.org.

 

As always, keep an eye on our For Residents page of the Practice Management section of the CSA website for upcoming opportunities and resources for residents, and stay active in CSA after residency with the Early Career Membership program.
