ASRT Blog Demystifies Public Policy Terms

The ASRT Government Relations and Public Policy Department clarifies public policy terms in its latest blog post located on the Advocacy Action Center webpage.

Meredith Check, manager of Government Relations and Public Policy, explains how the laws and policies that govern medical imaging and radiation therapy professionals at the state level are categorized into three main areas: licensure, standards and equipment regulations. Defining these terms serves to help those that advocate for the profession in their states.

The Advocacy Action Center is a resource for the radiologic technology community to learn about the legislative efforts in their states. It also provides technologists with the tools to contact state and federal officials.
