Does anyone here know how to do an online petition? I know that there are power in numbers and maybe we could get the CMS to listen to us if we got a petition going and got a lot of people to sign and to state why they feel that the CMS should not exclude Charite or ADR as coverable surgical procedures. I know that they tout that most of their clientele is elderly but look at all the younger disabled people who are on Medicare as well. Did they even take that into consideration?
I know that there was a very explicit petition on the web for people against a bill in congress that concerned animal rights. This was signed by thousands and thousands also got to add comments to their petition that went into the government. It was noticed!
This might help us here! Anyone out there know how to set one up?
