MICRA Critical to Protecting Ophthalmic Practice Across the United States

OMIC is a member of CAPP. The Californians Allied for Patient Protection (CAPP) initiative is critical tort reform that has been instrumental in keeping malpractice costs manageable and protecting patients access to health care. Because California initiatives are often a bellweather for tort actions in other parts of the country, the fight to maintain MICRA is a top priority for ophthalmic practice.

The campaign to defeat the anti-MICRA ballot initiative will now be known as the “No on 46” campaign. Organizers will need everyone’s help to educate voters that Prop. 46 will increase health care costs, reduce access to care and jeopardize citizens’ personal prescription drug information. We are counting on your involvement between now and November 4 to defeat this measure.

With only a few months until Election Day on November 4, we are ramping up efforts to educate voters that Prop. 46 will increase health care costs, reduce access to care, and jeopardize people’s private prescription drug information.

Please visit www.NoOn46.com to download information about Prop. 46.
