If the Supreme Court rules that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is unconstitutional, Congress will work on retaining certain provisions in the law that enjoy bipartisan support. That was one of the main messages delivered by Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., in the keynote address at this year's Family Medicine Congressional Conference May 14-15 in Washington. McMorris Rodgers told the nearly 200 family physicians at the conference that Congress is trying to anticipate how the Supreme Court might rule on the Affordable Care Act. "Should the Supreme Court rule that any part of the health care (law) is unconstitutional, we (Congress) are prepared to move forward immediately to try and prevent some of the chaos in the marketplace," said McMorris Rodgers.

Family Doctor of the Day

The Family Doctor of the Day Program is a non-lobbying program in which KAFP members provide medical services at the Statehouse during the Legislative session. Volunteers spend the day at the Capitol Building in Topeka beginning at 9:00 a.m. and ending at 3:30 p.m.

The doctor's office is designed to serve as an aid station and is not intended to be a fully equipped clinic. It is equipped with a blood pressure cuff, otoscope, ophthalmoscope, some pharmaceuticals, disposable supplies and oxygen. Physicians should bring their own stethoscope and prescription pad.

CANCELLATION POLICY: The KAFP FDOD Program is an extremely important program. If you need to cancel the date you are scheduled to serve please notify the KAFP office ASAP so that we may find someone to fill your date.

If you have questions about the program, please call 316-721-9005.
