As Congress debates health care, we have the opportunity to provide lawmakers with firsthand knowledge on key legislative issues that affect patients and the health care system. 

To really make a difference, everyone – insurers, physicians, other health care professionals and facilities, consumers, brokers, employers, policymakers – must engage in the reform process. We all have responsibility to help people navigate the healthcare system, eliminate waste and to help consumers choose the best value for their dollar.

We need your help to carry that message forward. Together, we must urge Congress to build on what works and make it better.

With a couple of clicks on the new Issues & Action Center on regence.com, you can send a message to your elected representatives and even the President. Your friends and family can too.

Additionally, we encourage you to visit www.WhatsTheRealCost.org – where you can learn more about the cost of health care as well as connect with others about their thoughts on health care reform.

Remember, everyone can make a difference. When voters speak up, Congress listens!
