Disaterologist doing his civil duties...

This is a letter I wrote to Senator Dr. Thomas Coburn in regards to CARE bill (S. 1042)


Dr. Coburn, my name is Michael Kerr. I am a registered Radiographic Technologist (x-ray tech) and I am writting to you to ask for your support of the CARE bill (S. 1042). It is essential that Americans receive radiographic diagnostic procedures from licenced and credentialed Technologists. This is not about registered Techs making more money, it is about patients not being over exposed to harmful amounts of ionizing radiation do to ignorance and lack of proper education. You would not support a bill that allowed persons to practice Medicine without a licence, that would do far more harm than good. This truley is a common sense issue and I hope that your support for this bill will come soon.

Thank you for your attention in this matter, Michael Kerr R.T. (R)
