Moving to a larger room did not diminish the presence or the impact of NJACP members at the Senate Health and Human Services committee hearing on the Vitale provider oversight bill package. As a result of advocacy efforts since the bills were introduced, the two most problematic bills in the Vitale package, S-3750 and S-3752, were posted for discussion only with the remainder of the package released by the committee.

NJACP was the only provider organization with advocates attending the hearing and you filled almost every seat in the room. Coming out in force, members’ presence was extremely impactful and helpful to sending a message about S-3750 and S-3752. We appreciate members who attended with only two days’ notice and around the holidays.
