This episode, I got to sit down with our brand-new CEO Steve Sellars, plus Eric Zimmerman and Amy Kelbick from McDermott+ to talk about a huge step forward for our advocacy efforts: CMS has officially included us in the latest Medicare Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule. 🎉 We dig into what this means, why it’s a massive leap forward for our advocacy work, and, most importantly, how you can help keep the momentum rolling. Think of it as a fast, punchy crash course on a game-changing moment… with just enough humor to make policy talk surprisingly fun.

In S1:E2 of The Advocacy Podcast, host Kristin Rastatter is joined by the unstoppable April Gillam from Solv to talk all things federal advocacy. We kick things off by picking our personal advocacy theme songs (yes, it’s as fun as it sounds), then dive into what’s happening on the federal front and how you can make a difference without needing a PhD in policy. April also shares her favorite tips, tricks, and little hacks to keep advocacy effective, impactful, and (believe it or not) fun.
