Seasons Greetings from the AARC
As you get ready to spend time with friends and family, the AARC wishes you a happy holiday season!

More on the New PR Benefit
The new Medicare benefit for pulmonary rehabilitation is just around the corner, and the AARC is keeping close tabs on all the latest news and information. Click on the link to read an update on instructions provided to Medicare contractors and examples on how to bill for two sessions of PR per day in the hospital outpatient setting.

Tell Us What You Want to Hear in Vegas
Here’s a great idea for how to spend a little of your downtime over the holidays: brainstorm ideas for topics and speakers at next year’s AARC Congress in Las Vegas. The deadline for 2010 RFPs is coming up Jan. 15.

Missing Something from the Congress?
If you lost something at the AARC International Respiratory Congress in San Antonio, please call Crystal Maldonado at the AARC office at 972-243-2272 and report it missing. We have several items from the meeting and would like to return them to their rightful owners.
