  • LHA Support List for 2011 Elections
    HOSPPAC Support List for 2011 Elections The LHA’s political action committee, HOSPPAC, and its Board of Directors has issued its support to candidates in the upcoming 2011 Election. Support criteria are based on several factors, including key votes, committee assignments, member recommendations and relationships. The selections were made based on the candidate’s support for issues critical to promoting the role and importance of hospitals in our communities. PLEASE SUPPORT CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT #3 We hope that you will consider supporting Constitutional Amendment #3, HB 341 by Rep. Chris Hazel regarding the Louisiana Patient’s Compensation Fund (PCF), which will be on the October 22 ballot. Amendment No. 3 ‐ Protecting the Patient’s Compensation Fund (PCF): Seeks to protect the Patient Compensation Fund, which is used to pay medical malpractice claims, from being used by the state or otherwise appropriated for any purpose other than paying medical malpractice claims. Yes ‐ A vote FOR would protect The Patient’s Compensation Fund from legislative appropriation by establishing it in the Constitution to only be used for the benefit of medical malpractice claimants and qualified healthcare providers. No ‐ A vote AGAINST would retain the existing statutory definition of the Patient’s Compensation Fund, which could subject the fund to appropriation by the legislature for other budgeting purposes. The PCF was created to provide affordable, medical malpractice coverage to all private healthcare providers and to provide a certain, stable source of compensation for legitimate injured parties of medical malpractice. If passed, the language in the constitutional amendment would settle several legal debates that have the potential to hinder the activities of PCF.

  • Our Voice in the Political Process
    PFIZER PAC OUR VOICE IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS 1 Pfizer PAC & Corporate Political Contributions Report January - December 2009 Learn which candidates we supported in your community. Pfizer PAC ~ Our Voice in the Political Process A Message from Sally Susman, Chair, Pfizer PAC Dear Colleagues: Every day, our patients benefit from life-changing medicines. Part of Our Path Forward as the world’s premier biopharmaceutical company is to engage stakeholders on the value these innovations bring to patients, doctors, payers, and governments. One group of stakeholders that we engage is elected officials at all levels of government. The national health care reform debate has brought into sharp focus the necessity of our involvement in the political process. During the past year, we have actively supported the right kind of health care reforms that will expand coverage, improve quality of care, and provide value to patients. We have also made lawmakers aware of the detrimental effects of certain proposals that would restrict patient access to care and stifle biopharmaceutical innovation. 2 As we engage elected officials to move our legislative agenda forward, Pfizer PAC supports candidates who are committed to maintaining and improving incentives for innovation and protecting and expanding patients’ access to innovative medicines. I am pleased to share this political contributions report, which includes a list of candidates and political committees that the Pfizer PAC supported in 2009. Pfizer PAC is bipartisan; we were able to support 1,092 candidates during the year in all levels of government and from both political parties. I hope that you will take a few moments to review this report and see which candidates Pfizer PAC supported in your state and district.
