EM residents on national committees

"This past year, Synergy residents have had a large presence in national emergency organizations. Three of our residents were elected to national committees. Karlis Austrins was a member of the Federal Government Affairs committee helping to monitor and assess legislative and regulatory issues related to access, crowding, liability, quality, and reimbursement. Jim Cogbill participated in the Medico-Legal committee. And Aaron Smith is a member of the Reimbursement committee that analyzes and make srecommendations on the reimbursement environment and challenges for emergency physicians. Aaron was selected to be a member of the committee again this year. We are encouraged by the future interest of our residents in emergency leadership helping to mold the future of emergency medicine."
