The Coalition Report is our bimonthly newsletter published for our members and for the public education of consumers, professionals, and government officials. |
|
Our newsletter provides updates on the movement to expose managed care abuses on legal, legislative, and media fronts. You will read riveting expositions, "Calls to Action," and unprecedented research detailing the economic and ethical failures of managed care. Used as a resource for professionals and patients, our newsletter also provides strategies on how one can protect oneself and fight back. |
