The Seniors Sleep Pledge is a new program that connects members with legislators to build support for Seniors Sleep 2014, a bill that would expand the “Welcome to Medicare” initial preventative visit to include sleep apnea screening. Senator Mark Kirk (R-IL) has agreed to sponsor Seniors Sleep 2014; now we need your help to keep the momentum going.

There are over 10 ways to get involved in this initiative, including signing template letters to legislators. Members can sign the pledge by sending your preferred contact information to the AASM at policy@aasm.org.

Additional resources about Seniors Sleep 2014 will soon be available on the AASM website. Contact the AASM to sign the pledge today!
