The House Is Rooted In The Principle

In States Where No Regulation Exists, Anyone Is Permitted To Perform Medical Imaging And Radiation Therapy Procedures, Sometimes After Just A Few Weeks Of On-the-job Training.

The Care Bill Is An Important Piece Of Patient-care Legislation. It Will Improve The Quality Of Radiologic Procedures Performed Throughout The United States As Well As Assist In Reducing The Cost Incurred By The Federal Government For These Procedures.

Our Legislation Addresses Broadcasts Over The Public Airwaves, But I Hope The Cable And Satellite Industries See The Importance Of This Issue And Voluntarily Create A Family Tier Of Programming And Offer Culturally Responsible Products.

In Addition To Fines, Violators Of Decency Standards Could Be Required To Air Public Service Announcements Serving Educational And Informational Needs Of Children.

Millions Of Americans Every Year Depend Upon Medical Imaging Exams To Diagnose Disease And Detect Injury, And Thousands More Rely On Radiation Therapy To Treat And Cure Their Cancers.
