  • Letter to Editors
    Thanks to Delegations Letter to North Dakota Editors As one of the most rural states in the nation, North Dakota directly benefits from a small set of federal health programs designed to ensure access to quality health care. Near the end of 2005, however, these vitally important health programs barely escaped being eliminated. Only through the commitment and dogged persistence that has come to characterize the North Dakota Congressional Delegation and other like-minded Congressional advocates for rural America, key programs were salvaged. As we know, the federal budget has grown increasingly tight. Like our own personal budgets, when money is tight, tough choices are made. In this case, balancing our nation’s economic health with the health of individuals and communities are both inherently important aims. However, in pursuit of cuts in federal spending, rural programs were shown the sharp end of the knife. But thanks to the work of the North Dakota Congressional Delegation, some of the worst cuts that would have hobbled effective rural health oriented programs were reversed. Here are examples of just three programs that would have been cut if not for the leadership of Senators Kent Conrad and Byron Dorgan, and Congressman Earl Pomeroy. The federal government, concerned about rural communities not having basic life support equipment, initiated a grant program to provide external defibrillators. In North Dakota, some first responders now have defibrillators to restart hearts that have stopped beating. In many ambulances, defibrillators have been upgraded. As a result, sheriff’s offices, senior citizen centers, school gyms, and others across our rural state have received this life saving equipment.

  • North Dakota Medical Association Awards

The awards will be presented during NDMA’s Annual Meeting on October 2nd. NDMA will recognize the recipients of the following two awards: NDMA Physician Community and Professional Services Award This award was established in 1977 to annually recognize and honor physicians for outstanding leadership and services to the people of North Dakota and to the profession of medicine. Criteria 1. The recipient must be a physician member of the NDMA; 2. The recipient must be living; 3. The recipient must not have been a previous award recipient; and 4. The recipient must have compiled an outstanding record of community service which, apart from his or her specific identification as a physician, reflects well on the profession of medicine. NDMA Friend of Medicine Award The Friend of Medicine Award was created in 1999 to formally acknowledge non-physician residents of our state who “have distinguished themselves by serving as effective advocates for health care, patient services, or the profession of medicine in the state of North Dakota.” Criteria 1. Must be either living in or operating a business enterprise in the state; 2. Must not be a doctor of medicine or osteopathy; and 3.

    Earl Pomeroy Senior Counsel 202.239.3835 [email protected] Washington, D.C. | The Atlantic Building, 950 F Street, NW | Washington, DC 20004-1404 Congressman Earl Pomeroy served as North Dakota’s at-large U.S. Representative from 1993 to 2011. As he describes it, “I came with President Clinton and left with the Affordable Care Act.” Ending his public sector experience working on landmark health insurance legislation brought Pomeroy’s career full circle: he was the state’s insurance commissioner and president of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners before joining Congress. In 2011, Pomeroy joined Alston & Bird, where he works on the firm’s Legislative & Public Policy Group. He provides strategy and advocacy services to clients in a variety of sectors, including health care delivery and reimbursement, energy, employee benefits, social security, tax, and trade. While in Congress, Earl was a senior member of the Ways and Means Committee and chair of the Social Security Subcommittee. He applied his unique experience as a financial regulator to a variety of issues before the committee and was widely regarded as a leader on pensions and retirement income security issues. At Alston & Bird, he co-chairs the firm’s Washington, D.C. pro bono committee and serves on the boards of the National Job Corps Association and the National Academy of Social Insurance.
