Should there be national immunization registries so that patients' immunization records could easily be tapped by health professionals across the country? Should drug companies standardize their applications for discounted pharmaceuticals for low-income patients? Should co-parent or second-parent adoption be allowed in families of same-sex couples? Should the Academy oppose unfunded mandates for translators for patients with limited English proficiency?
These are just some of the issues the Congress of Delegates will consider Oct. 14 16 in San Diego.
