3. Ensuring Fair Reimbursement and
Financial Sustainability
Fair reimbursement rates are essential for the
financial sustainability of podiatric practices. This
year, we are advocating for payment policies that
provide fair, market-driven reimbursement for our
services and reduce unnecessary burdens imposed
by health insurers. This advocacy strengthens the
financial viability of our profession and protects
patient access to essential services.
4. Supporting a Strong Podiatry
Workforce
A robust workforce is critical to advancing quality
care. Our agenda includes supporting loan forgiveness
programs and other initiatives to recruit, retain,
and grow our workforce. We are working to demonstrate
the value of podiatric physicians in integrated
care settings and develop compensation resources
for podiatrists to help you with understanding your
worth and providing you with tools to advocate your
value. By investing in these efforts, APMAPAC is helping
to build a sustainable future for our profession.
5. Promoting Podiatry to the Public
and Policymakers
Educating the public and policymakers about
podiatry's role in managing chronic conditions
and providing preventive care is a core part of our
mission. We are also working on national health
initiatives that highlight podiatry's contributions to
the health-care system. Through APMAPAC, we
are investing in raising awareness and ensuring
policymakers understand the importance of our
profession.
