Should NDs be paid fairly in Oregon? URGENT
www.congressweb.com
SB 772 "ND Insurance Pay Parity" rests at the desks of the Oregon Joint Committee on Ways and Means Co-chairs awaiting assignment to a sub-committee for a hearing and vote. The legislative session ends in a very short couple of weeks. It is essential for them to act ASAP. This Fair Pay bill is there...Hey everyone!!
Did you know that while some of you were assigned to us by the state as your primary care provider, we actually get paid around half of the state pays MDs, DOs, PAs, and NPs? Often significantly less by other insurances.
There's a whole state bill around this- *SB772*- that is slowly making its way through the government. We would love your support for getting paid the same amount by insurance like other types of providers for the same codes and work!
Fill out this form (10 seconds, less if you have autofill set up) and get emails about how to support us and which legislative peeps to talk to: www.congressweb.com/signup/?id=FF9B348D-5056-9235-14B295BDCCE1FDAD&fbclid=IwAR3Xm5Dk_ri4b3Ynkto9m...

As part of Earth Day Oregon, this month Northwest Integrative Medicine is supporting a wonderful nonprofit in SE Portland called Kindness Farm.
The farm grows healthy fruits & vegetables for our underprivileged homeless & low income neighbors. It also uses & teaches sustainable, regenerative farming practices to nourish & heal the Earth.
Kindness is the natural instinct in all of us to take care of each other, and our planet; which we believe is distorted by a world that forces us to choose our own survival over helping others.
There are 2 wonderful ways you can support the farm this month:
1. The farm is having an incredible Earth Day Celebration Event with Live music, Nature Mandalas, Sign Painting, & lots of awesome free gifts for attendees. Read more and sign up right here: www.eventbrite.com/e/kindness-farm-earth-day-celebration-registration-149389577247.
2. The farm is also having their biggest fundraiser of the year this month. Please consider supporting their important work. No contribution is too small! Even $1, $5, or $10 make a difference. Consider giving what is comfortable for you: gofund.me/319acea8.
