Health Policy & Regulatory Affairs

SNMMI hosted our annual Capitol Hill Day on April 5th, 2024. There were 62 attendees consisting of SNMMI members, patients, and industry colleagues. Participants attended more than 70 meetings with congressional staff.

The three topics we discussed were:
  1. Supporting the FIND Act
  2. Encouraging a focus on nuclear medicine research under the Department of Defense's Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program.
  3. Opposing the Nuclear Medicine Clarification Act, which could negatively impact patients and the field of nuclear medicine.
