Patient Comments document, submitted February 11, 2008
You can view the Physician’s Comments submitted and the signatures of GI doctors and Associations that SSA will be reviewing: Physicians’ Comments
Thank you for so many visiting this site and signing the Patient Comments Document. We have over 300 of your signatures and your voice will speak loudly! Remember this is government, there’s nothing fast about it! BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN CHANGE WILL NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF YOU! Please bookmark this page. At some (presently unknown) date in the future, there will be actual Proposed Rules put forth by SSA, on which we will again have an opportunity to comment. We will notify everyone who signs through our system when this happens. There will be a 60-day period at that time for making comments on the proposed rules.
The document and your signatures is being printed and mailed off to Social Security Administration as they instructed to SSA Commissioner, Mr. Michael J. Astrue as indicated in the document you read and electronically signed.
We will keep this link to the document so you can view your name, added in as one loud voice. We will add the SSA link where these and all comments must be published for public access as soon as it becomes available to us.
Again – we heartily thank YOU!
Also, we promise that we will not use the names and email addresses sent to us for commercial or any other purpose other than what we're talking about here, to append to the Comments document that will be submitted to SSA.
